Experience the negative pressure with our cupping massage
using myofascial cupping techniques.

WHAT IS CUPPING MASSAGE?
Here at Camino Massage, we use what is called Myofascial cupping therapy, which helps treat musculoskeletal disorders by using suction to create negative pressure underneath the cup. Originally fire was used to create the suction, but more recently pliable silicone cups are used. The negative pressure helps to decompress the area by lifting the skin and the layer of tissue underneath the skin — the fascia — up into the cup. This treatment creates space for the underlying tight muscle to lay down and relax and helps bring blood flow to the area in need.
Similar to the pressure of massage, cupping pressure stimulates a reflex response — promoting the release of vaso-activating chemicals (histamines, acetylcholine) that encourage the lumen of blood vessels to dilate and allow for fluids to rush into or through an area more efficiently. Due to their suction pump effect on the body, cups stimulate and enhance the body’s fluid exchange.


Cupping promotes blood flow to the compromised area, enhances circulation and helps to increase the body’s own healing processes — almost like a backward deep tissue massage. But that’s only the beginning.

Many recent reviews from therapists of the treatment describe cupping as a way to strengthen the body’s resistance, restore balance between positive and negative forces, remove disease-causing factors, and promote blood circulation.
