Cupping Therapy (Dry & Wet)
Muscle Release • Circulation Support • Pain Reduction
Cupping Therapy at Ukroots is used as a supportive physiotherapy technique to address muscle tightness, restricted movement, and long-standing discomfort. The therapy works by creating controlled suction on specific areas of the body, helping tissues relax and improving local blood movement.
This method has been carefully integrated into physiotherapy programs for clients who experience deep muscular tension or slow recovery.
Understanding Cupping Therapy in Physiotherapy
Cupping therapy influences soft tissues by gently lifting the skin and underlying muscle layers. This lifting effect helps reduce tightness, release adhesions, and improve tissue mobility.
At Ukroots, cupping is applied only after physical assessment and is used alongside other physiotherapy techniques for balanced rehabilitation.
Types of Cupping Therapy Offered
Dry Cupping
Uses suction cups without skin incision to help relax muscles, improve circulation, and reduce stiffness.
Wet Cupping
Involves a controlled and hygienic technique where suction is combined with minimal surface release, performed under strict professional supervision.
The type of cupping used is decided based on physical condition, sensitivity, and treatment goals.

- Target areas are identified after posture and muscle assessment
- Suction intensity is carefully regulated
- Duration is kept controlled to avoid skin stress
