Traditional Finnish Cupping

Traditional Finnish cupping is a centuries-old treatment that is used to relieve a variety of ailments. It is a type of wet cupping, which means that small cuts are made in the skin before the cups are applied. The cups are then placed on the skin, creating a suction that draws blood to the surface. Traditional Finnish cupping is made after taking a good 'löyly' in a sauna.

How it works

Traditional Finnish cupping is thought to work by stimulating the body's circulation and lymphatic system. It is also thought to help to release toxins and improve the flow of qi, or energy.

What to expect at a cupping appointment

Your cupping practitioner will first ask you about your health history and any medications you are taking. After that you'll get to go to sauna for 15-30min.

Then the places to be treated will be washed with anti-septic detergent.

The practitioner will then use a scalpel to make small cuts in the skin. The cups are then placed on the skin, creating a suction that draws blood to the surface. The cups will typically stay in place for 10-15 minutes.

After the cups are removed, the treated places will be washed.

Aftercare

You may experience bruising or redness at the cupping sites. This is usually temporary and will go away on its own within a few days.

You should avoid strenuous activity for 24 hours after cupping.
