Myofascial Cupping Massage Old Strathcona
Restore Balance with Myofascial Cupping Massage
Myofascial Cupping targets the deeper layers of connective tissue to improve mobility, release tension, and increase circulation. By stimulating blood flow to the muscles, it supports the body’s natural healing process and helps reduce pain and stiffness.
During your session at our Old Strathcona clinic, your therapist will place or move pressurized cups on specific areas of your body. These cups may be made of silicone, plastic, or glass, and can be applied using suction, pumping, or gentle heating techniques depending on your needs. The result is a treatment that helps restore balance, reduce strain, and promote recovery.

What to Expect During Your Myofascial Cupping Massage Appointment
If you’re experiencing general aches, repetitive strain, or more complex issues related to injury, a Myofascial Cupping Massage may be the right choice for you.
Your session will begin with a short assessment, which may include range-of-motion testing. Your therapist will review your health history, discuss your concerns, and identify areas to focus on. You’ll then undress to your personal comfort level and lie under the linens on the massage table.
Treatment typically starts with a therapeutic massage to warm up the tissues. Your therapist will then apply cups to targeted areas such as the shoulders, back, hips, or legs, depending on your needs. Cups may be left in place briefly or gently moved across the skin to help release adhesions and improve circulation. In some cases, cups are manipulated over areas of restriction to assist in breaking down tension.
It’s common to feel some mild discomfort or tenderness during the process, especially in areas of tightness. Open communication is encouraged so your therapist can adjust the pressure and technique to suit your comfort level. Please keep in mind that not all issues require deep or prolonged cupping—your therapist will use their training to select the right approach for your body.
After your appointment, you may feel both relaxed and revitalized. Be sure to drink plenty of water to support recovery and help your body flush out any toxins released during treatment. Your therapist may also provide aftercare recommendations such as stretches, self-massage techniques, or exercises to aid your rehabilitation. They may suggest a follow-up plan to keep you progressing toward your health goals.
Other Things to Know About Your Myofascial Cupping Massage
Your therapist may use silicone, pump, or glass cups depending on preference and treatment style. All options provide similar benefits.
If you’re preparing for a Myofascial Cupping Massage at our Old Strathcona clinic near Whyte Ave, here are a few helpful tips:
Arrive a little early – Give yourself time to complete any paperwork and settle in before your session begins.
Eat light beforehand – A heavy meal can make it harder to relax, while an empty stomach may leave you lightheaded. A small meal one to two hours before your appointment works best.
Stay hydrated – Drink plenty of water before and after your massage to support recovery, flush out toxins, and help reduce soreness.
Dress comfortably – Wear loose or athletic clothing that allows you to move easily. Your therapist will guide you on what should be removed for treatment, always keeping your comfort in mind.
Communicate openly – Let your therapist know about any discomfort or tightness during your session. Clear communication ensures the cups are applied at the right pressure and you get the most benefit.
Take it easy afterwards – Allow your body time to rest and recover. Avoid strenuous activity immediately after your treatment to maximize results.
Follow aftercare advice – Your therapist may recommend stretches, self-massage, or other techniques to support healing and recovery. Following these instructions will help you get the greatest benefit.
