Cupping Therapy is a powerful, non-invasive technique that uses suction to lift the skin and underlying tissues — promoting circulation, reducing pain, and enhancing the body’s natural healing response.
This ancient technique, rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine and modern myofascial science, has been embraced by athletes, physical therapists, and wellness experts worldwide for its ability to unlock tight fascia, relieve muscle tension, and accelerate recovery.
At NuPhysical in Las Vegas, we integrate cupping therapy with advanced rehabilitation to deliver results that last.
How Does Cupping Therapy Work?
Using medical-grade silicone, plastic, or glass cups, your therapist will create a controlled vacuum over specific areas of your body. This suction lifts the skin and soft tissues, allowing:
Increased blood flow to stagnant or injured areas
Fascial decompression and trigger point release
Lymphatic drainage and toxin removal
Reduction in adhesions and muscle tightness
Cups may be left stationary or used with gliding techniques to target larger muscle groups. Treatment is typically comfortable — and often described as a deep, relieving stretch from the inside out.
Your therapist will assess your condition, pain points, and movement patterns. A personalized cupping plan is then created to address your specific needs.
2️⃣ Targeted Cupping Application
Depending on your treatment goals, we use static or dynamic (gliding) cups. We may combine cupping with stretching, soft tissue work, or mobility drills for integrated results.
3️⃣ Post-Treatment Benefits
You may notice:
Reduced stiffness
Enhanced flexibility
Less pain and tension
Visible circular marks that fade within a few days (a sign of improved blood flow)
Is Cupping Safe?
Yes — when performed by a trained professional. At NuPhysical, our therapists are certified in clinical cupping therapy and use only medical-grade tools and techniques.
Minor bruising or discoloration is normal and temporary. However, cupping is not recommended for:
People with certain clotting disorders
Those who are pregnant (only in some areas of the body)
Individuals with fragile skin or active infections
We always perform a full screening before starting treatment to ensure your safety.
