Facial cupping has been a widely used technique in the treatment room for ages. So, what is facial cupping?
"Cupping is a simple application of quick, vigorous, rhythmical strokes to stimulate muscles and is particularly helpful in the treatment of aches and pains associated with various diseases. Thus, cupping carries the potential to enhance the quality of life."

- Improved absorption of facial products
