Myofascial cupping and RockPods — incorporated into individualised remedial massage treatment
At Sana Remedial Massage Cronulla, myofascial cupping and RockPods may be incorporated into your remedial massage treatment where appropriate following assessment. Rather than treating every client the same way, we assess, treat, record, and reassess to determine which techniques are most appropriate for your individual presentation.
Choose Your PractitionerWhat Is Cupping Massage?
Myofascial cupping uses cups to create negative pressure over the skin and underlying soft tissue. Unlike conventional massage techniques that apply compressive pressure, cupping creates a lifting or decompressive effect. The cups may be positioned over specific areas or moved across the skin as part of a myofascial cupping technique. RockPods are flexible silicone cups designed for myofascial decompression — your therapist may use RockPods while you are resting or combine them with active or passive movement, depending on your assessment. Suitability for cupping depends on your individual assessment, any relevant contraindications, and your presentation.
Benefits
- May help address areas of muscular and fascial tension where appropriate following assessment
- May support movement and mobility depending on individual presentation and response
- Can be combined with movement where appropriate
- Provides an alternative technique when compressive pressure is not the most appropriate approach
- Treatment is individualised — cupping is incorporated only where assessment findings suggest it is appropriate
Who Is It For?
Cupping may be incorporated into treatment for clients experiencing muscular tension, restricted movement, or discomfort associated with physical activity, training, or postural concerns. Suitability depends on your individual assessment and any relevant contraindications. Your therapist will assess your presentation and discuss whether cupping is appropriate before proceeding.
What to Expect
Depending on your assessment, cupping may be used over areas such as the neck and shoulders, upper and lower back, hips, or legs. Your therapist will explain the technique and discuss any relevant precautions before proceeding. Cupping can sometimes leave temporary circular marks or discolouration on the skin — the appearance and duration of these marks can vary between clients and according to the technique used. At Sana, cupping is incorporated as part of your overall remedial massage treatment plan rather than as a standalone service.
