- Instructor: Kim Le Robertson
- Duration: 1 day
Facial Cupping Therapy is a specialised, results-driven facial treatment that blends traditional Eastern therapy with modern, evidence-based Western techniques to create visible skin refinement and deep relaxation in one luxurious session.
This is not a basic suction cup method or DIY beauty trend.
At Le Spa Massage Academy, facial cupping is taught as a professional therapeutic technique based on the same clinical principles as body cupping — refined specifically for delicate facial structures.
Clients love this treatment for its natural lifting, sculpting and glow-enhancing effects. It supports healthy circulation, stimulates the lymphatic system, encourages collagen production, and helps soften fine lines while improving overall skin tone and texture.
What is Facial Cupping Therapy?
Facial Cupping Therapy uses specially designed soft cups to gently lift and mobilise the skin and underlying tissues.
Through controlled suction and rhythmic movement, the technique works with:
• fascia / connective tissue
• facial muscles
• lymphatic drainage pathways
• Eastern acupressure points
• natural contouring and sculpting lines
The result is a treatment that promotes detoxification, improves tissue mobility, enhances product absorption, and leaves the skin visibly brighter, smoother and more refreshed.
Why Learn This Technique?
This course equips you with a complete, step-by-step facial sequence that can be delivered as:
• a standalone luxury facial treatment
• an add-on to existing facials
• a sculpting or contouring service
• a premium natural rejuvenation option
It’s a highly marketable skill that elevates your facial menu and offers clients a non-invasive, holistic alternative for skin rejuvenation.
What You Will Learn
You will be guided through a structured, practical training day with hands-on practice and real models.
You’ll learn:
• Professional principles of facial cupping therapy
• Facial anatomy and physiology for safe application
• Health, hygiene and contraindications
• Client consultation and treatment planning
• Equipment selection and correct suction levels
• Facial products and treatment setup
• How to incorporate cupping into a full facial service

Practical Skills & Techniques
This course is highly practical and technique-focused.
You will work with:
• multiple types of professional facial cups
• stationary (placement) techniques
• moving and sliding techniques
• dynamic hand-and-cup coordination
Rather than simply placing cups and leaving them on the skin, you will learn to work fluidly with your hands following the cup, creating continuous movement that improves control, comfort and treatment effectiveness.
This creates a seamless, sculpting, massage-style experience that feels therapeutic, relaxing and results-focused.
