Cuppasana Starter Kit

The kit built for Cuppasana, not just cupping in general

Global Cupping is the preferred cupping supplier for Gretchen Popp and Neuromuscular Cupping Therapy, and this kit was created specifically for her and her Cuppasana students. Cuppasana itself is a specific method, developed by Gretchen, that combines Yin Yoga poses with cupping placement. It's taught as its own training for massage therapists, bodyworkers, and yoga teachers, not a general "add cups to your yoga class" idea. This kit is built around what that specific practice actually calls for: enough cup variety to move between held poses and precise placement without stopping to switch equipment mid-session.

What's in the kit

Eight cups total: two large base cups (3.5" x 4.5"), two medium base cups (2" x 3.25"), and a full Button Cupping Set (four cups, 2.25" diameter). All at 55 hardness, soft enough to seat comfortably while a client is holding a pose rather than lying still on a table.

Why this combination fits a movement-based practice specifically

Cupping during a held yoga pose is a different demand than cupping during a static massage treatment: the cup needs to stay seated through a change in body position, and you're often placing it somewhere less conventional than a standard treatment table setup allows for. The large and medium base cups cover the broader muscle groups worked in a typical Yin Yoga sequence, while the Button set's smaller, low-profile cups handle joints and areas that shift more during movement.

Why 55 hardness here specifically

Softer silicone seats more forgivingly on a body that's moving into and out of a pose, rather than lying still, and it's a gentler starting point if you're newer to combining cupping with movement work at all.

Material

Medical-grade, platinum-cured silicone throughout, holding its clarity and consistency through the kind of regular use a group or studio practice puts it through.
