Paltrow said in a statement, “Anytime I do anything for a while, there’s always a ‘she’s insane, but then people catch on. So I almost can’t go to an acupuncturist now without them thanking me for introducing the world to cupping.”
So what exactly is cupping? Cupping is a form of Chinese medicine that when applied and suctioned to the skin it creates blood flow. Since it is a type of deep tissue massage it can be a form of relaxation and to alleviate any pain. So that kind of eases everyone’s minds, while it looks a little aggressive, it’s actually healing.
