Detox massage (including cupping) focuses on stimulating circulation and lymphatic drainage to move waste products from tissue. Relaxation massage calms the nervous system and reduces cortisol. Both improve how you feel, but through completely different mechanisms.
Stimulate circulation and release deep-seated stagnation.

| Aspect | Cupping / Detox Massage | Aroma Relaxation Massage |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Mechanism | Circulatory and lymphatic stimulation | Nervous system downregulation |
| Sensation | Strong pulling sensation — unusual but effective | Gentle, flowing, deeply pleasant |
| Marks After | Red/purple circles may appear (not bruises) | No marks — very gentle |
| Energy Level After | Can feel tired as body processes — rest is ideal | Deeply calm and ready for sleep |
| How Often | Every 2-4 weeks — skin needs recovery time | Weekly or more — very safe to repeat |
Choose cupping if you have poor circulation, feel sluggish or "stuck", have respiratory issues, or want a genuinely different therapeutic experience. Great after heavy travel or unhealthy periods.
Choose Aroma Relaxation if stress, anxiety, or poor sleep is your main issue. It's gentler, more repeatable, and profoundly calming for the nervous system.
A cupping session once a month for circulatory maintenance, and weekly Aroma massage for ongoing stress management, is a powerful combination.

“Booked cupping and Thai for recovery after a heavy training week. The results were measurable — faster than rest alone. Aromatherapy sessions give me better sleep. Different mechanisms, both legitimate. I use both for different purposes now.”
