Cupping therapy provides deep muscle release that complements active lifestyles. The technique is popular with fitness enthusiasts for recovery and with professionals for releasing chronic tension.
District 7's health-conscious expat community appreciates alternative wellness approaches. Cupping's therapeutic benefits appeal to those who maintain active lifestyles and seek comprehensive recovery options.
“I was curious about cupping and the therapist explained each step before doing it. The combination of suction and massage worked well for muscle recovery — I'd done a tough workout that morning and the tension was completely gone by the time the session ended.”

Everything you need to know before you book
Book via WhatsApp with your hotel name and preferred time. Mention if it is your first cupping session — the therapist will explain the process and check briefly for contraindications before starting. Also mention any blood-thinning medication, sensitive or broken skin, or recent sunburn in the target area. Same-day bookings are standard. A 60-minute session includes both cupping and massage strokes; 90 minutes allows more comprehensive back and shoulder work. Cupping is typically combined with oil massage, so the same preparation applies as for oil-based treatments.
Plan cupping bookings with the marks in mind — circular red-to-purple discolorations on the back and shoulders are normal and last 3–10 days depending on skin type and session intensity. Avoid booking cupping immediately before beach days, pool activities, or any situation where visible marks would be inconvenient. The most popular cupping window is evening, followed by a restful night — the decompression effect on muscle tissue is enhanced by overnight rest. Cupping for athletic recovery is most effective 24–48 hours after intense training, not immediately post-workout.
The therapist arrives with cups (glass or silicone) and massage oil. Please have your bed cleared and ready — setup takes 5–7 minutes. The therapist applies oil to the skin and uses suction to attach the cups to the back, creating a lifting decompression effect on the fascia and muscle tissue. For static cupping, cups remain in place for 5–10 minutes; for dynamic cupping, the therapist slides them across the back. The suction sensation ranges from mild warmth to strong pull — communicate your preference. Marks are not bruises and do not hurt to touch afterward; they fade within a week. Sessions run the full booked time. Payment is cash after.
