This premium cupping set is made from high grade silicone. The transparent silicone is soft and elastic with enough thickness for strength and suction. The design of the cups makes it easy to grab and push down to create the suction for treatment. You can thumb press with one hand, finger press with two hands, or palm press them. Transparent cups also let you view the treatment area and reddening of the skin. Silicone cups require no hand pumps, fire, and are safe. The soft material is comfortable on the skin for use in retaining cupping and massage moving cupping. With 4 cup sizes, you can use the cups on any area of the body.

Features

Cupping is a form of Traditional Chinese Medicine that has been practiced for over three thousand years.
