Vacuum massage is widely used in cosmetology, physical rehabilitation, and neurology. It contributes to the restoration of local blood circulation, the reduction of muscle tension, and the improvement of skin condition. Depending on the purpose of the procedure, the specialist selects the appropriate technique and intensity of the effect.
At the Oxford Medical medical center in Kyiv, vacuum massage is performed by professional massage therapists, who take into account the patient's health condition and needs to achieve maximum effectiveness from the procedure. To book a vacuum massage at a time convenient for you, call the contact center or write in the chat on the website.
Vacuum massage is a procedure based on the effect of negative pressure on the skin and subcutaneous tissues. With the help of special devices or vacuum cups, air rarefaction is created, as a result of which the skin is slightly drawn into the attachment. Such mechanical action contributes to increased local blood circulation and may help reduce muscle tension.
The main purpose of vacuum massage is to improve microcirculation, eliminate toxins, reduce swelling, correct body contours, and treat cellulite. This is a safe method that is suitable for women and men who wish to improve their appearance and the overall condition of the body.
Vacuum massage combines mechanical action on the skin and soft tissues with stimulation of local blood circulation.
The main advantages of vacuum massage:
Improvement of blood circulation. Vacuum action stimulates microcirculation in the massage area and contributes to better blood supply to superficial tissues.
Reduction of muscle tension. The procedure may help relax overstrained muscles, reduce the feeling of stiffness and discomfort in the back, neck, and other areas of the body.
Improvement of skin condition. Massage can make its texture more even, reduce the visibility of cellulite, and improve the appearance of problem areas.
Reduction of localized swelling. In some cases, mechanical stimulation of tissues may contribute to the movement of interstitial fluid and a reduction in the feeling of heaviness.
Relaxation and improvement of well-being. Massage helps relieve accumulated muscle tension and may contribute to overall relaxation.
Another advantage of the procedure is the ability to regulate the strength of the vacuum action and work on different areas of the body. This allows the intensity of the massage to be selected taking into account skin sensitivity, muscle condition, and the desired result.
In modern cosmetology and medicine, several types of vacuum massage are used, each of which has its own characteristics and indications:
Machine-assisted vacuum massage. This type of massage is performed using special equipment. The device creates a vacuum, which contributes to deep treatment of the tissues. The procedure is effective for reducing body volume, smoothing the skin, and eliminating cellulite.
Vacuum roller massage. Combines vacuum action with mechanical massage using rollers. This enhances the drainage effect, contributes to skin tightening, as well as the breakdown of fat cells.
Vacuum cupping massage. Special silicone or glass cups are used. They create a local vacuum that actively stimulates the skin and subcutaneous tissue. This type of massage is often used to relax muscles and relieve pain in the back and neck.
Which type of vacuum massage is best suited depends on the patient's needs and the desired result.
Vacuum body massage is used in cosmetology, physical rehabilitation, and as an auxiliary method
for certain diseases in neurology.
Vacuum massage — indications:
cellulite, uneven skin texture, and reduced skin elasticity;
localized fat deposits and the need for cosmetic correction of body contours;
a feeling of heaviness in the legs and slight localized swelling;
chronic fatigue, stress, and increased muscle tension;
pain and stiffness in the muscles of the back, neck, and limbs;
neuralgias and neuritis (as an auxiliary method);
Doctors at Oxford Medical recommend determining the cause of pain, swelling, or other complaints before starting a course of treatment in order to rule out contraindications and determine whether vacuum massage would be appropriate in a particular case.
Despite its advantages, the procedure is not suitable for everyone. Contraindications may include:
pregnancy, especially when planning treatment of the abdomen and lower back;
oncological diseases for which the procedure has not been approved by a doctor;
inflammatory processes, open wounds, and infectious skin lesions in the massage area;
varicose veins in the area of treatment, thrombosis, or thrombophlebitis;
severe cardiovascular diseases in the stage of decompensation;
infectious diseases in the acute phase, elevated body temperature;
blood clotting disorders, a tendency to bleeding or the formation of large hematomas.
Before the procedure, you must inform the specialist about chronic diseases and medications you are taking.
The procedure begins with a consultation, during which the specialist determines the purpose and selects the optimal type of massage. Before the session, the specialist explains how vacuum massage is performed and clarifies whether there are any restrictions on its performance.
The main stages:
1. Skin preparation. Before the massage, the skin is cleansed and, if necessary, a special massage gel or oil is applied to reduce friction.
2. Performing the massage:
Machine-assisted vacuum massage is performed using a special device on which the specialist sets individual settings, including the required vacuum pressure.
Vacuum cupping massage involves the use of cups of different sizes, which the specialist gradually moves over the skin, ensuring uniform action.
3. Completion of the procedure. After the massage, a cream with a soothing effect may be applied to reduce redness or irritation.
The duration of the session is from 20 to 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated and the selected type of massage.
The price of vacuum massage may vary depending on the method of performance, the area of the body, and the number of sessions recommended to achieve the optimal effect.

Usually, a course consists of 10–15 procedures at intervals of 2–3 days. To maintain the result, the massage can be repeated approximately once a month. The specialist determines the frequency and number of sessions taking into account the condition of the skin, the purpose of the procedure, and the body's response to the treatment.
Vacuum massage for cellulite may help reduce the volume of certain areas of the body and improve skin texture. However, the procedure does not provide significant fat burning or a reduction in body weight. A balanced diet and regular physical activity are of primary importance for weight loss.
Yes, breastfeeding itself is not a contraindication to vacuum massage. However, after childbirth, especially a cesarean section, it is necessary to wait for the tissues to heal and agree on the procedure with a doctor.
Yes, if you feel well, massage can be performed during menstruation. However, in case of heavy discharge, severe pain, or weakness, it is better to postpone the procedure. During this period, it is also recommended to avoid intensive vacuum treatment of the abdomen and lower back.
Yes, vacuum massage of the abdomen can be performed in the absence of contraindications. The procedure may help improve the appearance of the skin and reduce uneven texture. Massage is not performed during pregnancy, in cases of acute abdominal pain, inflammatory diseases, or before postoperative wounds have completely healed.
In cases of varicose veins, vacuum massage must not be performed directly over dilated veins, as this may cause injury to blood vessels and the appearance of hematomas.

The possibility of performing the procedure on other areas of the body should be agreed upon with a doctor.
