Before you buy: this is not a beginner cup, and it is not an upgrade from 5560.

DEEP PRO 6065 is hard silicone, and hard silicone takes real hand strength to compress. If you cannot squeeze the cup down far enough, you will not generate the suction it is capable of — and it will feel like the cup is faulty or not as described. It isn't. It needs stronger hands and enough experience to read how far you have actually compressed it.

This is the single most common ordering mistake we see. People read “DEEP,” assume deeper means better, and order the wrong cup.

New to cupping, or building your first kit? Start with Supreme Intermediate PRO 5560. Not as a compromise — it is the correct cup for learning and for most of the work you will actually do.

What 6065 is for

Slow, deliberate, deep work over dense muscle, where you want more draw and you are willing to work slowly to place it well.

It is a specialty cup, not an everyday cup — even for professionals. Most therapists who own 6065 use it for the specific cases that call for it and reach for 5560 the rest of the time.

Why harder silicone draws harder

Suction comes from the cup recoiling back to shape after you squeeze it. Harder silicone recoils faster and with more force, so it pulls more — provided you can compress it fully in the first place. A 5560 you can fully squeeze will out-pull a 6065 you cannot.

The Supreme rim

6065 uses our squared Supreme rim, which catches and holds tissue. That makes it excellent for static holds.

It will also glide, but it grips as it travels — a tug on the skin before the cup releases and moves. That grabbing quality is genuinely useful for slow, deep myofascial work, and it has to be done slowly. It is not a smooth glide. For continuous smooth gliding, use the rounded rim on our GRIP cups.

Application techniques

• Static — place the cup with suction and leave it in place, or combine with passive or active muscle engagement.
• Dynamic — apply lubrication and move the cup over the skin. With the Supreme rim, go slowly and expect the cup to catch as it travels.
• Flash — quick suction and release, repeated.

Sizes and sets

Available from 3-cup to 10-cup configurations and in individual sizes, small through extra-large. Select from the options above to see each set.

Quality standards

• Always clear, never coloured — so you can see the tissue through the cup while you work.
• No BPA, phthalates, latex, PVC or filler plastics.
• Built for extended professional use.
• Includes basic cupping instructions written by a professional cupping instructor.

Who actually uses this cup

The DEEP PRO 6065 is used in clinical myofascial practices, and was selected by a PhD physical therapist who teaches myofascial release at college level and through continuing education — including to elite-level athletic trainers working with Olympic, professional and collegiate athletes. He chose this cup specifically for its deep suction.

That is the job this cup was built for, and it is why we do not recommend it as a first cup.
