THERABODY THERACUP
No, it’s not a container for your takeaway spiced latte – this compact cup offers caffeine-free relief for your aching muscles. Like the therapy ordered by Olympic athletes, the TheraCup deploys a combination of suction, vibration and heat to soothe your sore bits. The cupping concept is pretty simple: by pumping on targeted areas, it’s meant to stimulate bloodflow, relieve tired tissue and speed up recovery. But unlike a full physio setup, this thing can fit in your gym bag for treatments on the go. It’s also good for up to 2hrs per charge, and doesn’t require an intimidatingly healthy professional to push the buttons.
