Cupping Massage in Lethbridge
At Rowan and Peridot Collective, we offer Cupping Massage, an ancient therapeutic technique rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. This gentle, hands-on therapy uses suction cups to lift soft tissue, release tension, and encourage natural healing.
Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or simply seeking deep relaxation, cupping helps your body feel restored, balanced, and energized. Additionally, it supports the body’s natural recovery processes and can complement other wellness therapies.
What is Cupping Massage?
Cupping is a holistic therapy that targets the fascia — the connective tissue surrounding your muscles. During a session, our registered massage therapists place small, smooth cups on the skin to create gentle suction. This suction:
Lifts fascia and soft tissues
Encourages blood flow and oxygen delivery
Promotes lymphatic drainage
Helps relieve tight muscles and chronic tension
Cupping can be applied to the back, shoulders, neck, hips, glutes, and limbs — wherever tension builds up — making it fully customizable for your needs.
Benefits of Cupping Massage
Cupping therapy offers a range of restorative benefits that go beyond simple relaxation. Many clients choose cupping because it:
Relieves Muscle Tension and Tightness
The suction created by the cups helps loosen tight muscles and fascia, easing deep-seated tension and promoting flexibility.
Improves Circulation and Oxygen Flow
Cupping draws blood toward the surface, improving circulation and helping deliver oxygen and nutrients to tissues for faster recovery.
Supports Faster Recovery from Injury and Strain
By reducing inflammation and promoting healthy blood flow, cupping can speed up recovery after workouts or repetitive strain.
Enhances Flexibility and Range of Motion
The lifting effect on muscle tissue encourages mobility and reduces stiffness, making it ideal for athletes and active individuals.
Promotes Relaxation and Stress Relief
Many clients experience deep relaxation during cupping sessions, as the therapy helps release both physical and emotional tension.
Encourages Balance and Overall Wellness
Regular cupping sessions support the body’s natural healing response, promoting harmony and overall well-being.
Whether you’re looking to recover from an injury, reduce pain, or simply unwind, cupping massage offers a rejuvenating and holistic path to wellness.

Consultation & Focus Areas

Application of Cups
Your therapist gently applies smooth suction cups to key areas of your skin. The cups lift the fascia, promote circulation, and encourage tension release.
