Has anyone tried cupping therapy after swimming to relax their muscles? If so, what are your experiences?
As you can see on Michael Phelps Instagram he uses it, so it must be good.
I've had cupping therapy performed on me several times. In my personal opinion I prefer a deep tissue massage to cupping. Physically speaking, I didn't notice any additional benefits in my body than when I received a traditional deep tissue massage. I wouldn't be opposed to doing it again, I just personally didn't feel it was more beneficial than a deep tissue massage in my case.
Each person is different and each person's body responds differently. So hard to say how you would specifically respond to this type of therapy.
