THE FACE & BODY CUPPING SET
For the support of fascia, lymph and blood flow.
Discover your flow with the ancient practice of cupping therapy with our gentle and easy to use FACE & BODY CUPPING SET. Created from natural silicone, our versatile cup designs allow you to find the perfect fit, for the perfect area, with the perfect amount of gentle suction.
Our cups use a subtle vacuum that removes blockages from the lymphatic system, by pulling them to the surface for clearing. This creates new space for enhanced microcirculation and nutrient rich blood to flood the tissues, leaving you feeling brighter, lighter and lifted in just a few minutes.
We are all about simplicity and efficiency and all our pieces allow you to enjoy all the benefits of cupping from, soothing your legs with larger double tier cups to promoting rejuvenation of your face with our mini cup. The 10 piece cupping set is also a valuable addition for practitioners who treat their clients with cupping methods and is safe for beginners and experts alike.

Within this modern silicone range there are 3 types of cups.
Cone Shaped: this is a single dome shape, that is simple to use and easy to obtain suction on more curved areas of body.
Double Tier: the reduced volume, enhances the suction, works well in areas of the body with larger surface areas.
Face cup: this is a simple cone shape, hold at the base and mostly used for gliding and re-creating suction frequently. Our faces are individually contoured, and the glide distance is generally shorter, thus the suction needs to be recreated to maintain flow.
Our set is comprised of 5 sizes, 2 in each size.
85mm*, 70mm, 65mm*, 55mm, 50mm, 37mm circumferences.
*Double tier design
Care: rinse with gentle soap and water and allow to dry. Store in a cool, dry environment. Rinse before re-use.

- The stimulation of blood flow throughout your face and body promotes rejuvenation and the health of your skin.
- Improving lymphatic drainage can de-puff, detoxify and re-define your tissues.

How to activate your cups
- Apply your favorite massage oil: this ensures smooth gliding and enhances the suction effect.
- Squeeze and Place: Gently squeeze the bulb of the cup and place it onto the skin.
- Release: To remove the cups, simply press on the edge of the cup to release the suction.
Techniques
- Traditional Cupping: place cups on your chosen trigger points or acupressure points and leave the cups on for 5-15 minutes. Monitoring the effects and adjusting accordingly.
- Pump Cupping: lightly suction for 1-3 seconds and releases, as you move along the muscle.
- Glide Cupping: create suction on one side of an area. While maintaining pressure, glide the cup along to the opposite side of the area. Release and repeat 2 or 3 times.
Notes
- Work around areas of inflammation, acne, sensitivities, broken capillaries and botox or fillers.
- You can customize the intensity of the cupping experience according to your preferences and needs.
- The closer to the base of the cup you squeeze, the stronger the suction will be. Tune in to the pressure that feels more nurturing for your body and skin.
- Start in moderation so that you can explore how cupping feels on your body, and can adjust your practice to avoid intense bruising.
- This may be especially important for your face ritual where you may experience some redness but may not want any deeper markings.
Our Practice
As a personal routine: cupping can be introduced almost daily for 5-10 minutes. We suggest to alternate between your face & body to allow areas to rest between treatments.
Morning cupping: can invigorate your face and create healthy flowing muscles for the day.
Evening cupping: can flush toxins from the day and promote regeneration while you sleep.
Begin: stimulate your lymph nodes with gentle massage with your finger tips, around your ears, collar bones, under the arm and groin area.
Face cupping: in general, move from the middle of your face outwards along the jaw and check bones. Move up the forward and then out to your hairline.
Body Cupping: in general, start at your extremities and move up the limbs and towards the heart.
Our skin is also deeply affected by our foods, movement, sun exposure, stress levels, sleep, hydration and micro-toxins in our environment and we believe cupping is a beautiful support to all these other aspects of our modern lifestyle.
