Weight loss massage with cupping therapy

Massage is a relaxing and healthy way to improve your well-being. Here are some possible benefits of massage for weight loss:

• Massage may help break down fat cells and allow them to be absorbed into the body. One study found that participants shaved an average of around 2 mm off their waists through massage alone.
• Massage can reduce stress, which causes your body to store more fat. Massage also helps release endorphins, which give you a happy feeling and motivate you to stick to your diet and exercise plan.
• Massage can improve your recovery from workouts and decrease muscle soreness. This can help you perform better and burn more calories during your exercise sessions.
• Massage can improve your circulation, which can boost your metabolism and help you burn fat more efficiently.
  

To summarise, massage is a useful tool for weight loss. Along with a healthy diet and an active lifestyle to achieve your goals, massage can support your weight loss efforts by enhancing your physical and mental health. 

Cupping is a traditional therapy that involves creating suction on the skin with cups. Some people claim that cupping can help in weight loss by improving blood circulation, reducing inflammation, and stimulating metabolism.

Cupping is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves applying suction cups to the skin and creating a vacuum. Cupping provides effective slimming treatment since it stimulates acupressure points and runs them along the body’s lymphatic lines. Lymphatic lines are channels that carry lymph, a fluid that helps remove waste and toxins from the body. By stimulating the lymphatic lines, cupping helps to flush out excess fat and improve metabolism.

Traditional Chinese Medicine says that excess fat and slow metabolism are a result of stagnant qi. Qi is the vital energy that flows through the body and regulates its functions. The restricted movement of qi results in ‘dampness’; which is caused by an ill-functioning spleen and liver. The spleen and liver are organs that help digest food and eliminate waste. Cupping is a suction-based therapy, and it helps to remove damp stagnation from the body. This is followed by a rupturing of stubborn fat, which is subsequently flushed out of the system.

Cupping can also help to reduce inflammation, stress, and pain, which are factors that can contribute to visceral fat accumulation. Visceral fat is a type of body fat that lies deep within your abdominal walls and surrounds your organs. Some levels of visceral fat are healthy and help protect your organs. However, too much visceral fat can be dangerous for your health. Visceral fat is sometimes called “active fat” because it plays an active role in how your body functions. Too much visceral fat can lead to serious health issues such as diabetes, heart disease and stroke.

At Wellness Balance, we do not generally not recommended to do cupping every day, as frequent cupping may cause skin irritation, bruising, or other adverse effects. While cupping is considered a safe therapy when performed by a trained professional, overdoing it may lead to discomfort and potential harm. Scientific literature supports cupping therapy being effective when performed daily, semi-daily, three times per week, and even once per week. The frequency of treatment appears to be inversely proportional to the treatment intensity and duration.

Therefore, we consult our clients and tailor the frequency of cupping according to their individual needs and goals. And our cupping services are provided along with a massage following the proper guidelines and techniques to ensure safety and quality.
