FACIAL CUPPING MASSAGE AND SCAR CARE SET Massage cupping applications for the face have evolved with the development of wonderful micro-cups that can be used to vacuum across the skin, or mimic the pumping movements of lymphatic drainage. Massage Suction Cupping uses negative pressure, pulling facial tissues out and away to stimulate them with a reverse massage. "The Extractor" extra-strength pump uses the same micro cups for scar care, and also has unique First Aid applications.
NEW APPROACHES TO BEAUTY AND HEALTH A micro-cup set with moderate-pressure squeeze suction bulbs provides a new technique to stimulate and relax the face, helping drain away excess fluids and giving the face a lifted look while loosening tight facial muscles and stimulating beauty and wellbeing. With stronger suction, the "Extractor" can be used to smooth and lighten the look of scars anywhere on the body, and it has important First Aid uses too.

DIRECTIONS
Micro-cups can be used to vacuum across the skin, or mimic the pumping movements of lymphatic drainage. This procedure is easy to do in a few minutes, and is simply a manual method that mimics more expensive equipment currently in use today. Massage cupping on the face will complement your techniques to drain stagnant fluids from "reservoir" areas, and ameliorate that puffy look.
1.
Attach white squeeze bulb to appropriate-sized micro-cup for the chosen area of the face.
2.
Apply facial oil to the skin of the face.
3.
Apply micro-cup to face, squeeze the bulb to create a vacuum. Glide the cup over the area of the face according to various facial massage routines. (Full instructional manual and comprehensive DVD instructions included.) Using the bulbs with the cups in the kit for moderate pressure in creating a vacuum, is suitable for areas around the face. Avoid extra sensitive areas, however.
Scar Care The "Extractor" pump lets you use the same micro-cups to apply high-pressure suction, for caring for larger or smaller scars anywhere on the body. Instructions included.
Combine with Other Routines This is a quick, yet effective addition to a facial, massage or body treatment. Massage Cupping complements your other beauty treatments, and is a wonderful accompaniment to aromatherapy to give you a complete sense of wellbeing.
First Aid Applications ("The Extractor" yellow pump)
The Extractor Pump creates powerful suction designed to remove venom, or foreign matter such as a bee stinger, from the body by sucking it out the same opening through which it was injected. Suggested for splinters, bee stings, glass shards, plant thorns and needles, or other foreign matter embedded in the skin. Also effective for bites and stings to remove the venom.
1.
If necessary to improve suction, calmly use a safety razor to remove body hair from the affected area.
2.
Fit your Pump with the suitable size micro-cup.
3.
Using your thumb, push the plunger all the way in until you feel the suction, and let the pump remove the foreign matter from your body.
4.
Pull the plunger up gently to release the vacuum.
5.
Do not use the pump in areas of sensitive skin such as eyelids, genitals or ear cavities. "The Extractor" is for First Aid applications and scar work only. Must not be used on the face for facial cupping.
Gwyneth Paltrow used cupping therapy, as could be seen by the circular marks on her back, normal after cupping.
Gua Sha - another way to release muscle tension and tightness. Rub an area of the body with a traditional Gua Sha tool and cream or oil for a thorough massage.
