Cupping Therapy for Athletic Recovery

Cupping therapy is a technique where specially designed cups are placed on the skin to create suction. This suction increases blood flow to the area, helping to reduce muscle tension, alleviate pain, and promote healing. Athletes often use cupping to speed recovery after intense workouts or injuries. The process can leave temporary marks, but it's generally safe when performed properly. By enhancing circulation and reducing inflammation, cupping supports the body's natural healing process and can improve flexibility and performance.
