It is a non-invasive and effective therapy of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which appeared at least 2,000 years ago.<br \/>The effects of Ventosaterapia are the reduction of local pain, reduction of local inflammation, improvement of blood flow and circulation, relaxation of muscles and reduction of contractures.<br \/>In the treatment, a cup (suction cup) is used to pull an area of the skin with a suction that decompresses the muscles and connective tissue. This promotes blood flow to the compromised area, improves circulation and helps increase the body&#8217;s own healing processes &#8211; almost like a deep tissue massage.<br \/>Ventosaterapia, uses suction as a form of therapy, aims to stimulate better blood circulation, reduces muscle pain and relieves discomfort and stress.<\/p><p><strong>Benefits of Cupping Therapy:<\/strong><\/p><p>&#8211; Increased blood circulation at the site;<br \/>&#8211; Release of toxins in the blood;<br \/>&#8211; Detoxification of tissues promoting purification and oxygenation of the skin;<br \/>&#8211; Elimination of trigger points and muscle contractures;<br \/>&#8211; Relief of joint pain;<br \/>&#8211; Increased production of synovial liquid;<br \/>&#8211; Help in relaxing the mind and body.<\/p><p><strong>Main indications for Cupping Therapy:<\/strong><\/p><p>&#8211; Muscle pain;<br \/>&#8211; Back pain;<br \/>&#8211; Relief of muscle contractures;<br \/>&#8211; Headache and Migraine;<br \/>&#8211; Anxiety;<br \/>&#8211; Stress.<\/p><p><strong>Contraindications to Suction Therapy:<\/strong><\/p><p>&#8211; Thrombosis;<br \/>&#8211; Bleeding disorders;<br \/>&#8211; Calibrous varices;<br \/>&#8211; Wounds;<br \/>&#8211; Fever;<br \/>&#8211; Pregnant women who have decompensated arterial hypertension.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<main class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b0420d8\" data-id=\"b0420d8\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-dbfcd1b elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"dbfcd1b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.13.3 - 22-05-2023 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/ventosaterapia.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2733\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/ventosaterapia.jpg 907w, https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/ventosaterapia-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/ventosaterapia-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/ventosaterapia-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/main>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cupping Therapy Cupping therapy is a type of procedure that has several benefits for the patient, such as detoxifying the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":3309,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3366","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","left-slider"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3366","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3366"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3366\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3728,"href":"https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3366\/revisions\/3728"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3309"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/soulmassage.pt\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3366"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
