It is worth mentioning that the recovery method popularized by Michael Phelps, one of the most successful Olympic athletes in history, in the last edition of the Rio 2016 Olympics, is also followed by Neymar. We are talking about cupping therapy. This technique consists of placing a cup-shaped suction cup on the skin of the person receiving the treatment. Then, a vacuum is created using heat to create suction between the cup and the skin, pulling the latter slightly upwards and away from the underlying muscles. This causes local congestion and the bruises that are precisely the result of that process. Just like our Neymar in the photos.
