Dry Cupping

HIJAMAH MA DALK (MASSAGE CUPPING)
It is the more commonly used form of cupping among massage therapists and other health care practitioners. Prior to applying the cup, oil is applied to the skin to facilitate smooth movement and discover the areas of tension and congestion. Create the vacuum and place the cup on the affected area, then glide it over the surface. A cup may be placed for a short time on stubborn knots or over inflamed joints or tissue. Cupping can be used on the neck, shoulders, back, sacral area, hip, abdomen, thigh, upper arms, and calves. The sensation of cupping is often characterized as deep warmth and tingling, long after the treatment has ended. Cupping is not an irritant to the skin or body. It draws the inflammation out yet does not add to it. Massage cupping is often used on the broad areas of the back, which is a wonderful addition to any message. The treatment is painkilling, and people will often descend into a profound state of relaxation. Larger cups may be used on the back; the strong vacuum will mimic the rolling action of deep tissue massage without the discomfort. The movement may be long and draining, or circular and stimulating, for stubborn knots and areas of rigid tissue.
The skin will redden with strong massage cupping, indicating that circulation has been brought to the surface. Application of liniments, analgesics, plant hydrosols or essential oils immediately following a cupping treatment will aid absorption deep into the tissue. The increased local blood supply will nourish the muscles and skin and allow toxins to be carried away. Clients have often reported that the massage cupping experience stayed with them longer than other treatments and that result is cumulative with consistent sessions.
Therapists point of view
. From a therapist’s point of view including cupping therapy within a massage treatment, can reduce the pressure placed on their hands and wrists and can help the therapist to utilize their time more efficiently during treatment. For instance, cups are often used in one area to pre-reduce muscle tension and increase blood flow, whilst a second area is being treated with manual massage techniques. The cups can then be removed or placed in a different area, and manual massage techniques can then be applied to the pre-cupped region.
How does Dry Cupping work?
. Initially, the vacuum application of the cup pulls blood into an area. This leads to the affected tissue becoming saturated with fresh blood. This saturation can often leave a circular mark, which is consistent with a hickey or love bite mark. However, this usually disappears after a day or so and happens to a lesser extent on subsequent treatments. Neovascularisation (new blood vessel formation), occurs in response to blood being drawn into the tissue. This leads to an increase in nutrient and oxygen content within the localized area. Due to the vacuum effect, the soft tissue often experiences micro-trauma and separation between the tissue layers. The body responds to this micro-trauma by stimulating an inflammatory response, which is the natural process of healing. During this stage, the body releases chemicals such as white blood cells, platelets, and fibroblasts to initiate healing. Finally, the stretch that is produced in the soft tissue and fascia leads to a relaxation effect within the muscle, which results in the improved range of motion and performance.
In summary, Dry Cupping helps aid soft tissue injuries and reduce pain or discomfort by
Increasing localized circulation,
Increasing oxygenation and nutrient content within the tissue,
Removing stagnant blood and waste products,
Re-initiating the healing process to microtrauma,
Stretches fascia and connective tissue, which leads to a relaxation response.
Dry. In dry cupping, the therapist applies a cup on the skin’s surface with the use of a pump. Here, cups are usually made of plastic, and they are removed through suction. This technique draws the blood and the fluid away from any inflamed areas, bringing them to the skin’s surface. This type of cupping method shouldn’t be done on parts of the skin which have open wounds.
Dry cupping can be done anytime. Usually, the treatment lasts for 10-15 minutes. Some cups can be placed on the skin during the therapy. However, the practitioner needs to keep observing the cups as he is applying them to the skin. Careful observation is needed to avoid blisters on the skin’s surface.
Areas of the body which are inflamed and painful will benefit significantly from dry cupping. This is because it eases congestion, allowing the blood of the body to flow better. Dry cupping can be done every day. A person can even self-administer the cups on his own body, as long as those parts are accessible. Cup tensions can vary from strong, medium or light.
