Special glass or silicone jars – “massage bells” – are used for cupping and vacuum massage. A vacuum is artificially created in them, due to which the jar is sucked to the skin, and the tissues are drawn inside.
Due to the vacuum, the rarefied air inside the jar occurs, in which the electromagnetic field is activated. Due to the rather intense blood flow in the capillaries, the skin receives more oxygen and nutrition, which allows it to look fresh, healthy and fit.
As you age, the blood flow worsens, resulting in wrinkles, flabbiness, puffiness of the skin, it changes its color, becomes dry, loses elasticity and firmness.
