ACE Cupping Massage - What Is It?
ACE Cupping in form of massage technique I am trained in using the vacuum pump method. Honestly, this is where I am very passionate with my work because of the many benefits it has. Cupping uses negative pressure that reaches deep into the layers of fascia. It is painless and very relaxing. But don't let that fool you, it has very deep effects.
How Cupping Is Done
There are several types of cupping techniques which include wet, dry, stagnant and dynamic cupping as well as fire cupping. These all performed differently and are used for different reasons.

What can you expect during a cupping appointment?
Depending on the type of cupping and what you are going in for, you will have several cups placed on your body, depending on where you want the treatment. For a stagnant treatment, the cups will be left in place and for a dynamic treatment, the technician will move them around. You may feel some pinching if a knot is located. Upon the release of the skin and muscle, you should feel an immediate lack of tension and more relaxation.
Cupping has long been used in holistic and alternative medicine practices with no physical trauma to the body, the benefits of this ancient practice are well worth exploring. You may find that it helps with relaxation, toxin removal, and pain relief when used regularly.

What is the discoloration that occurs after some treatments?
There is a “marked” difference between traditional Chinese cupping therapy and ACE Massage Cupping™. The marks that are commonly left from TCM treatments are the desired result. ACE Massage Cupping™ therapy very rarely produces this discoloration, called a “cup kiss” or “doo-hickey.” If this appears during the treatment, it’s just an added bonus indicating the release of intense stagnation (body fluids and toxins) in the area. This is not a bruise and will dissipate anywhere between a few hours and a few days. It is also unlikely that it will re-occur in the same area.
