Types and indications of vacuum massage - cupping and hardware technology, benefits, contraindications and prices

Among the many cosmetic and therapeutic procedures, vacuum therapy occupies a worthy place, and recently its popularity has only been increasing. Vacuum massage is also used as restorative therapy after treatment, rehabilitation after plastic surgery and many other cases.

What is vacuum massage

A procedure called vacuum massage is the effect of pressure on the skin created by special cans or a vacuum device with special attachments. Vacuum lymphatic drainage has the following effect:

  • relieves pain at the site of exposure by relaxing muscle fibers;
  • deeply affects the active points of the body;
  • supplies tissues with oxygen, as a result of which excess fluid is removed and blood circulation improves;
  • increases skin elasticity, promotes damage restoration and scar healing.

The procedure is performed in two ways: special glass or silicone jars, a vacuum apparatus with massage rollers. The effect of the procedure performed by banks or a machine is similar if the master does everything correctly. After the session, a feeling of relaxation appears, fatigue and tension are relieved due to the outflow of harmful substances from the tissues.

Persons

A more useful alternative to many salon procedures is vacuum facial massage, which, according to many reviews, produces an effect similar to pneumomassage. Air, creating pressure on the skin, helps to activate restoration processes in tissues, as a result of which the skin is rejuvenated and the oval of the face is corrected. This procedure helps to cope with many problems, such as:

  • expression wrinkles;
  • saggy double chin;
  • enlarged pores;
  • comedones;
  • capillary mesh;
  • circles under the eyes.

For the belly

Before you begin the process of pumping your abs, it is advisable to get rid of excess fat in the abdominal area. Achieving a good effect in this zone remains an almost unattainable goal for many. To significantly reduce volumes, you need to follow a strict diet and do cardio training. The lymphatic drainage effect of vacuum abdominal massage will significantly help in the process of losing weight, the effect of which is visible to the naked eye:

  • sagging skin is removed;
  • fat deposits are noticeably reduced;
  • the silhouette of the figure is corrected.

Hardware or cupping procedures bring equally good results if performed using the correct technique. Cupping abdominal massage is one of the few methods of dealing with problem areas that “don’t want” to lose weight even after strict diets. It is effective for restoring skin elasticity after childbirth, and is also very useful - it accelerates metabolic processes in tissues, removes toxins along with subcutaneous fat.

For cellulite

The notorious “orange peel” on the hips, legs and buttocks is very difficult to destroy. This is due to fluid retention in tissues and impaired cellular respiration. The result is the accumulation of excess subcutaneous fat. To destroy excess fat deposits in problem areas, use:

  • anti-cellulite creams;
  • wraps;
  • roller massagers.

After a crushing pneumomassage, bruises remain, the skin hurts for a long time, and wraps and creams have long proven their ineffectiveness. Anti-cellulite cups have a gentle effect on the skin, forcing body tissues to independently cope with excess toxins, fluid and fat. Therefore, vacuum anti-cellulite massage is actively used in the fight against this problem; it remains one of the most effective methods of combating the hated orange peel.

Banks

Despite the widespread use of vacuum devices, many salons use jars for vacuum massage, which are made of silicone and glass. Vacuum cans for massage, according to technology, are used with massage oil so that they glide better over the skin. At home, you can use any vegetable oil. Massage with a cup used to be performed with heating to create pressure inside the jar. Now this procedure is carried out using a special device that pumps out air from the cavity of the vessel.

Hardware vacuum massage

A procedure in which specialized equipment is used to create pressure on the surface of the skin is called hardware massage. This does not require the use of oil, and it goes much faster - the session does not exceed 20 minutes. The vacuum massage device has the following varieties:

  • roller;
  • manual massager with acupressure;
  • a device with several massage bowls.

Vacuum massage at home

It is very easy to do an anti-cellulite procedure at home. Before you start, carefully read the technology and buy special jars and oil. It will be easier to do a vacuum cupping massage at home if you learn from a specialist how to do a cupping massage, which areas need to be affected to achieve results, and which areas should absolutely not be touched. It is known that there are places on the hips, chest and legs where lymph nodes are located, massaging which is dangerous for health.

Contraindications

The most common indication for this procedure is the presence of cellulite. In addition to body correction, indications for massage may include:

  • diseases of the back and spine;
  • metabolic disease;
  • scars, stretch marks;
  • sagging skin after losing weight.

Before the procedure, it is important to familiarize yourself with the existing restrictions under which cupping massage cannot be performed. Contraindications for vacuum massage are as follows.
