Cupping

A Traditional cupping technique using heated cups to create gentle suction on the skin to help release muscle tension, promote circulation, and support relaxation.

Add it to any massage. Popular with Naples golfers and anyone whose upper back has gone stubborn, and yes, the marks fade within a few days.

The Experience

What to Expect

Suction cups are placed on the back or the tightest area and either left in place or moved along the muscle. The sensation is a firm pull rather than pressure - different from anything else on the menu and surprisingly relaxing once you settle into it. Cupping commonly leaves round marks for a few days, which is normal and not a bruise in the usual sense.

Who it suits

Tight backs and shoulders that have not responded to pressure
Curiosity about a different kind of bodywork
Anyone who finds deep tissue intense but wants something that reaches
Adding to a massage rather than booking alone

Who should skip it

You have an event, a wedding or a beach trip in the next week - the marks last
You bruise very easily or take blood-thinning medication
You have broken skin, a rash or sunburn where the cups would go

If you are pregnant, recovering from surgery or managing a medical condition, please check with your physician first and tell your therapist when you arrive.

Good to Know

Common Questions

Will cupping leave marks?

Usually yes - round, circular marks that typically fade over three to seven days. They are not painful and are a normal result of the suction. If you have an event where your back will be visible, plan around it or skip the add-on this time.

Does it hurt?

Most guests describe it as a strong pulling sensation rather than pain, and many find it oddly pleasant. Your therapist adjusts the suction to what you find comfortable and can move or remove a cup at any point if it feels like too much.

Can I add it to any massage?

It can be added to most of our massage services, and your therapist will fit it into the session rather than extending it. Mention it when you book so the time is planned properly, or ask on the day if availability allows.

How long does it take?

It is an add-on within your appointment rather than a separate booking, usually around ten minutes within a longer massage. If cupping is the main reason you are coming, say so and your therapist will give that part more of the hour.
