Cup massage

[citation needed] Cup massage is performed with medical cups, which have vacuum-sucking, thermochemical, and reflectory impact on the skin, hypoderm, muscles and nerves.

[citation needed] Cup massage lasts 10 to 20 minutes and is accompanied with the feeling of warmth.

The skin in the massaged area becomes slightly hyperemic and congested.

[1] The procedure starts and ends with classical manual massage techniques.

[2]There are also issues with a lack of safety for cup massage as there is still a need for establishing proper application protocols.
