Product overview

TheraCup™
Advanced Cupping Therapy Made Easy.
From the creators of Theragun® comes TheraCup™, a digitized cupping therapy leveraging science-backed technology for a more controlled, effective, and safe solution. TheraCup™ combines cupping with vibration and heat for a more efficient and easy-to-use recovery solution.
Advanced, effective, and portable, TheraCup’s™ innovative technology can be used by professionals or for at-home use.
Intended Use
TheraCup™ innovates on the traditional method of cupping therapy.
TheraCup™ is intended to help relieve muscle tension and tightness and reduce pain and soreness. This device is intended to stimulate the natural healing process by increasing blood flow to the treated area to help reduce pain and soreness and enhance mobility. TheraCup™ combines vibration and heat together to provide an automated, effective, pressure-controlled method to perform cupping therapy.

Getting started

Step 1 – Use cupping technology

1. Select the cup size (small, medium, large) best suited for the area you want to use TheraCup™. See below for more information on how to select the appropriate cup size. Ensure contact between the cup and the black ring on the  device for sealing.

2. Once comfortable, turn ON TheraCup™ by dragging the MasterSwitch slider to the right. The battery status LED shows that the device is ON.

3. Short press the suction (middle) button to begin cupping. Short press the suction button to toggle through the pressure settings (low, medium, high). Turning on the suction also turns on the first level of heat and vibration.

4. Place the cup on your forearm to adjust settings accordingly before use, or place directly on the intended area, such as your back, arms, and legs and begin use. Once placed, push the cup into the skin for strong suction.
   Once suctioned, you can release your grip during the treatment.

5. Short press the vibration button to toggle through the speed settings. A long press turns off the treatment.

6. Short press the heat button to toggle through the three temperatures. A long press turns off the treatment.

7. After three minutes, you will hear a short beep, indicating that TheraCup™ treatment is complete. Five seconds after the beep, the suction will stop. If you want to discontinue treatment at any point, long press the suction (middle)  button or drag the MasterSwitch slider to the left (off).

8. To turn OFF TheraCup™, drag the MasterSwitch slider to the left.

Step 2 – Discover Pro Mode treatment

1. Select the cup size (small, medium, large) best suited for the area you want to use TheraCup™. See below for more information on how to select the appropriate cup size. Ensure contact between the cup and the black ring on the  device for sealing.
2. Once comfortable, turn ON TheraCup™ by dragging the MasterSwitch slider to the right. The battery status LED shows that the device is ON.
3. There are two ways to use Pro Mode: Flash Cupping and Gliding Cupping.
4. Long press the vibration and heat buttons simultaneously for approximately five seconds to reach Pro Mode. Two white lights will illuminate when Pro Mode is on, and the device will begin to suction. Suction levels are not  adjustable in Pro Mode. The default setting in Pro Mode is Gliding Cupping. To access Flash Cupping, press the suction (center button). Three white lights will illuminate to indicate that Flash Cupping mode is on.
5. Short press the vibration button to turn ON the vibration. Short press the vibration button to toggle through the speed settings. A long press turns off the treatment.
6. Short press the heat button to turn ON the heat treatment. Short press the heat button to toggle through the three temperatures. A long press stops the treatment.
7. Gliding mode: Apply a massage medium, such as an oil or lotion, to the intended treatment area. Place the cup on the intended area, such as IT bands, quads, and calves. Once the cup has full suction, lightly lift the cup up and away  from the skin, slowly gliding over the treatment area.
8. Flash cupping mode: Place the cup on the intended area, such as IT bands, quads, and calves. Allow the pressure to build up for 2-5 seconds, and then pull to release the cup. When using the smaller cup, release after about two  seconds. When using the larger cup, release after about five seconds.
9. After five minutes, you will hear a short beep, indicating that TheraCup™ treatment is complete. Five seconds after the beep, the suction will stop.
10. To turn OFF TheraCup™ during or after treatment, drag the MasterSwitch slider to the left.
