Will cupping leave marks?
It can leave temporary circular marks. Chris explains what to expect before using cups.
Cupping therapy
Cupping for tight areas that need a different kind of input.
Cupping may be used as part of a session when tissue feels stuck, overworked, or slow to loosen with hands-on pressure alone.
Good fit
Who this session is for.

Session feel
What the work is like.
Cupping uses suction to create lift through soft tissue. It can leave temporary circular marks, so Chris talks through comfort, placement, and whether it fits your session goals.
Common reasons people book this
- Tissue that feels restricted or hard to move
- Recovery after repetitive physical work
- A desire to combine cupping with deep tissue or sports massage
- General maintenance for tight muscle groups
When something else may be better
Cupping isn't always appropriate for every person or every area. If you bruise easily, use blood thinners, have skin irritation, or have medical concerns, ask before booking and consider medical guidance.
