Dynamic cupping is a therapeutic soft tissue technique used to support circulation, tissue mobility, and recovery. Unlike static cupping, where cups are placed and left in one area, dynamic cupping involves gently gliding the cups along the body. This allows the therapist to work more effectively with muscles and connective tissue that feel restricted, sensitive, or slow to respond to hands-on techniques alone.
Dynamic cupping is most often used as part of a therapeutic massage session, helping address areas of persistent tension or tissue restriction in a more targeted way. Pressure and technique are always adapted to your comfort, and the approach is guided by assessment and your individual goals.
Dynamic cupping is typically incorporated into a therapeutic massage session, so your appointment will start with the same assessment and setup as a standard massage. Your therapist will review your concerns, check areas of tension or restriction, and tailor the session to your specific needs and comfort level.
During the cupping portion of your session, oil is applied to the skin, and silicone cups are gently suctioned to the treatment area. Your therapist may glide the cups along lines of tension or follow fascial patterns to help release adhesions, improve tissue mobility, and support circulation. In some areas, the cups may be left in place briefly, while in others they may be glided over the same region several times. For certain techniques, the therapist may also incorporate gentle client movement to enhance tissue release and improve range of motion.
Your therapist adjusts pressure, technique, and cup placement throughout the session to ensure your comfort while maximizing therapeutic benefit. Dynamic cupping is always integrated into a broader treatment plan, combining hands-on massage, individualized care, and homecare recommendations to support your goals and overall wellbeing.
