Sometimes we just can’t quite reach the scar or release it fully using our hands. Medicupping is a great adjunct to manual therapy to release post surgical scar tissue and adhesions.
You can have a medicupping treatment during your regular session. Your therapist can give you the best recommendations on when and how frequently to use the medicupping machine.
Sometimes the medicupping machine will leave a bruise depending on how intense the suction. It might also depend on the depth of your scar. The bruising is harmless and should resolve in a few days.
We use fractionated coconut oil to help ensure a proper seal when using the cupping machine. If you have any allergies to coconut, please let us know before hand.
