Cupping Therapy

---

At Jaguar Integrative, we use cupping therapy to help relieve pain, support recovery, and improve respiratory function. Whether you're struggling with muscle fatigue, stress, or lingering respiratory issues, cupping is a versatile treatment that can support your healing journey. This ancient therapy, now known as myofascial decompression in modern sports medicine, is used to create gentle suction on the skin using specialized glass or silicone cups.

Cupping works by applying suction that gently lifts and separates layers of soft tissue. This creates an environment for increased circulation, reduced inflammation, and tension relief. By pulling the fascia (your body’s connective tissue) away from the muscles underneath, cupping improves blood and lymphatic flow, allowing your body to heal more effectively. The temporary circular marks left by the cups are a sign of increased circulation and typically fade within a few days.
