Chronic pain and persistent muscle tension can limit your daily activities and affect your quality of life. Express Therapeutic Cupping at Fond & Faye in Rutherford, NJ, offers a powerful wellness treatment that addresses deep-seated discomfort through an ancient healing practice. This specialized therapy uses targeted suction to release tight muscles, improve circulation, and provide the pain relief you’ve been seeking.
Deep cupping therapy works differently from massage or other bodywork treatments. By creating negative pressure on your skin, the cups draw blood to the surface, separate layers of tissue that have become stuck together, and encourage your body’s natural healing response. Whether you’re dealing with chronic back pain, sports injuries, or stubborn knots that won’t release, this holistic wellness approach provides therapeutic benefits that you can feel immediately.
Your body deserves effective pain management that addresses the root cause of your discomfort. Our Express Therapeutic Cupping provides professional cupping therapy that targets specific areas of pain and tension. In 30-45 minutes, our trained practitioners strategically place cups on problem areas, creating powerful suction that lifts tissue, increases blood flow, and promotes muscle recovery in ways that hands alone cannot achieve.
This bodywork treatment goes beyond temporary relief. The deep tissue release and circulation boost provided by therapeutic cupping help your muscles heal properly, reduce inflammation that contributes to ongoing pain, and support lymphatic drainage that removes waste products from injured or overworked areas. Many clients experience significant pain relief and improved mobility after their very first session.
Express Therapeutic Cupping is a healing technique that places specialized cups on your skin to create suction. This negative pressure pulls tissue upward, separating adhesions, drawing fresh blood to the area, and encouraging the release of chronic muscle tension. The cups can be left stationary on specific trigger points or moved across your skin to address larger areas of tightness and discomfort.
At Fond & Faye, our Express Therapeutic Cupping follows careful cupping therapy steps designed for maximum therapeutic benefit. We begin with a thorough assessment to identify your pain points and understand your specific concerns. Next, we prepare the treatment area and apply cups using the suction method that’s most appropriate for your condition. Throughout the session, we monitor your response and adjust placement or intensity as needed. The treatment concludes with gentle cup removal and aftercare guidance to support your continued healing and pain management.
You’re an excellent candidate for Express Therapeutic Cupping if you experience chronic pain that hasn’t responded well to other treatments, deal with persistent muscle tension in your back, shoulders, or legs, participate in sports or physical activities that cause recurring injuries, or struggle with limited mobility from tight, restricted tissue. This therapy provides effective chronic pain care for conditions like fibromyalgia, arthritis discomfort, or ongoing tension headaches.
Treatment suitability includes most people seeking muscle tension solutions through holistic methods. However, this therapy isn’t recommended if you’re pregnant, have bleeding disorders, take blood thinners, have skin conditions or open wounds in treatment areas, or have certain heart conditions. During your consultation, we’ll review your complete health history and discuss your wellness insights to ensure Express Therapeutic Cupping is safe and appropriate for your specific situation.
For addressing acute pain or injury, you might benefit from weekly sessions initially to achieve rapid improvement. Once your symptoms decrease, transitioning to treatments every 2-3 weeks helps maintain your progress. For chronic conditions or ongoing pain management, many clients find that sessions every 3-4 weeks provide consistent relief and prevent symptoms from returning.
Your ideal treatment schedule depends on the severity of your condition, how your body responds to cupping, and your overall wellness goals. Some people need more frequent sessions during flare-ups, while others maintain their results with monthly appointments. Cupping creates temporary marks that typically fade within 3-7 days. We’ll work with you to develop a personalized pain management plan that addresses your specific needs and fits your lifestyle.

While both use the same basic technique of creating suction on your skin, therapeutic cupping is specifically focused on treating pain, injury, and chronic conditions with precise placement on problem areas. Body cupping may be used more generally for wellness, detox, or relaxation across larger areas. Therapeutic cupping typically uses stronger suction, targets specific trigger points and pain patterns, and is integrated into a treatment plan for managing particular conditions rather than general wellness maintenance.
The marks left by therapeutic cupping can range from light pink to deep purple, depending on the amount of stagnation, restriction, or injury in the tissue. Darker marks typically appear in areas where you have the most pain or restriction—they indicate where your body needs the increased circulation most. These aren’t bruises in the traditional sense but rather blood being drawn to the surface. They’re a normal part of the healing process and shouldn’t cause concern. The marks fade completely within a week.
Therapeutic cupping effectively addresses many conditions, including chronic back pain, neck and shoulder tension, sciatica, sports injuries, plantar fasciitis, IT band syndrome, rotator cuff issues, and tension headaches. It works well for both acute injuries and long-standing chronic pain. During your consultation, we’ll assess your specific condition and explain how cupping can help. For some conditions, we may recommend combining cupping with other treatments for the best results.
You’ll feel strong pulling and pressure as the cups create suction, which can be intense but shouldn’t be unbearable. Many people describe it as a deep, satisfying pull similar to a very firm massage. The sensation is strongest when cups are first applied, then your body adjusts. Some areas with significant tension or injury may be more sensitive than others. We continuously check your comfort level and can adjust suction strength to keep the treatment therapeutic without being too uncomfortable.
Many clients experience noticeable pain relief immediately after their first session as tight muscles release and circulation improves. However, the full benefits often develop over the next 24-48 hours as inflammation decreases and your body continues healing. For chronic conditions, you’ll likely see progressive improvement over several sessions rather than complete resolution after one treatment. Consistency with your treatment schedule gives you the best chance of achieving lasting pain relief.
Stay well-hydrated to help your body flush out toxins released during treatment. Gentle stretching and light movement help maintain the improved range of motion you’ve gained. Avoid intense exercise for 24 hours after treatment to let your body recover. Apply heat to treated areas if they feel sore. If you have exercises or stretches from a physical therapist, continue those as directed. We’ll provide specific recommendations based on your condition and treatment goals.
People with active infections, blood clots, congestive heart failure, kidney disease, or certain cancers should not receive lymphatic drainage without medical clearance. If you have a pacemaker, are in your first trimester of pregnancy, have acute inflammation, or are experiencing fever, you should postpone treatment. During your consultation, we’ll thoroughly review your health history to ensure this treatment is safe for you.
