A WORD FROM THE INVENTOR

My name is Susan King and I am thrilled to have discovered a way to uniquely combine myofascial release with vacuum cupping techniques.  I can say in all honesty that my patients are achieving truly extraordinary results in a fraction of the time.  Best of all, it takes the physical burden off me.   Don’t  take my word for it; listen to what my patients say.  They are the ones who urged me to get this product to the market.

Patient Quotes

Karen: (Sacro-iliac Dysfunction, Degenerative Disc Disease lumbar spine, Muscle Spasms) “The cup and release pulled all the tension out of my back and after the first treatment I got immediate relief.  It lasted for two to three days.”

Eric: (Failed cervical spine surgery) “In one session the “Cup and Release” therapy provided me with (an unheard of) 75% pain reduction and muscle spasms.  This improvement lasted for a whole week.  It’s unlike any treatment I’ve received in the past. “

Zanetta:  (Myofascial Pain and Cervical Disc Disease)  “It feels relieved.  The pain and the knots are pulled from the skin.  The knots are gone for a few days. Definitely Lasts 3 or 4 days.”

Lynette: (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome) “Oh My God! it feels amazing right where it hurts.  It’s a painless internal massage. It’s pulling the pain from the inside out.  It is better than any other modality we have ever tried.  I can move better!  This is the first break in foot pain I have had to date since my accident”

Stephanie: (Professional Ballerina s/p ankle surgery) “I can feel it lifting and breaking the scar up.  I’ve spent hours massaging the scar at home.  I can feel this working instantly and it doesn’t hurt!

Pat:  (4 failed back fusion surgeries) “Oh My God!  I have lain in bed or on the sofa for nearly 2 years with a spasm deep in my abdominal wall.  Five minutes after the first treatment the pain is nearly completely gone.  I have been to two other physical therapists and taken countless drugs.  I have been doubled over from pain so severe I have been unable to do any social activities with my family. Nothing has worked before. It’s a miracle.  You can quote me to anyone/anywhere”

Lydia:  (Trigeminal Neuralgia and Cervical DDD) “My shoulder and neck pain were so severe I had given up hope.  Literally after the first treatment I was 75% better and was able to do things I had not done in a year.”

 Rhonda: (Chronic Pelvic Pain and Constipation) “My problem was unique.  I had chronic pelvic floor pain since a botched bladder tacking operation.  The pain and the scar tissue had also caused chronic constipation.  Susan’s unique combination of relaxation and myofacial cupping was highly effective, so much so that I drove 200 miles 2 times a week for 4 weeks because it was the first breakthrough in pain reduction and GI function I had and continues to help me today.” 

“Cup and Release”

SUPERIOR MYOFASCIAL RELEASE IN A FRACTION OF THE TIME!

It is an accepted fact that myofascial release  can be effectively used for the treatment of musculo-skeletal pain and dysfunction.  But it can be physically exhausting  for the therapist and may take multiple treatment sessions over days or weeks to have lasting effects for  the patient.  

Product Description:  The patented Cup and Release delivers the benefits of myofascial, manual and trigger point therapy in an accelerated amount of time with minimal exertion.  This therapists’ tool was invented by Susan King,  a physical therapist and pain specialist in practice for 20+ years.  The patient response has been extremely positive.  Because patients demanded their own device for home use, Susan has created the Cup and Release for both professionals and consumers.

How to use:

1. THE CUP AND RELEASE REQUIRES A SEAL.  PREP THE SKIN OVER THE AREA YOU WANT TO TREAT BY RUBBING A THIN LAYER OF EITHER PETROLEUM JELLY/ COCOA BUTTER/MASSAGE OIL.
2. APPLY THE OPEN END OF THE BELL TO THE SKIN THEN PINCH THE SIDES TOGETHER TO CREATE A VACUUM.
3. WHILE KEEPING A CONSTANT PULL ON THE KNOB, GLIDE THE BELL ACROSS THE MUSCLES IN THE AREA OF PAIN.
4. REMEMBER TO PULL THE KNOB IN THE DIRECTION YOU SLIDE THE BELL.
5. WHEN THE BELL LOSES SUCTION, SIMPLY  REPEAT STEPS 2-4
6. ENJOY!!
