Stagnation Cups
Static cupping, also known as stagnation cupping, targets specific areas of blockage or stagnation along the body's energy pathways. By creating a vacuum seal over these areas, stagnation cups aid in releasing trapped energy, enhancing circulation, and reducing discomfort. This technique involves placing cups on specific points of the body and leaving them in position for a predetermined duration, usually 5 to 15 minutes. This sustained suction effect helps to alleviate tension, boost circulation, and support healing. Static cupping is commonly utilized for localized pain or tension, trigger points, and areas with tight or restricted muscles
