REVO Smart Cupping Massage User Manual
01 Introduction
The ancient healing method of cupping has continuously shown powerful benefits in improving cellular immunity, alleviating pain from knots, and dramatically improving blood flow while reducing cellulite. Combining this technique with modern therapy modules such as dynamic suctioning, red light therapy, therapeutic heating, and vibrational massaging, REVO has been designed as one of the most powerful all-in-one therapies for convenient at-home use.
Device Overview: The REVO Smart Cupping device features a control panel on top with indicators for temperature and suction. Key controls include: Temperature Control, Suction Release, Cupping Pressure, and Power/Mode. It also has a Type-C Charging Port. The device utilizes a transparent tube which connects to an air inlet.

03 Operating Guidelines
Preparation Before Use
- It is recommended to clean and moisturize the skin before using the REVO. Essential oils, such as REVO Pre-Therapy Essential oils mix or another high-quality essential oil, can be applied.
- Carefully remove and disinfect the transparent cup/tube by rotating it counter-clockwise, then dry it before and after each use.
- Carefully align the tube before tightening. REVO will not work properly if the tube is misaligned.
Power/Modes Button
- Press and hold the Power Button for 1 second to turn on the REVO. The LCD screen on the control panel will display the 20-minute countdown, and the temperature indicator will light up. Each device is equipped with a run time of 20 minutes and automatically shuts down after this period.
- Note: It is important to start with a few minutes as a beginner to test skin sensitivity.
- To shut down the REVO, press and hold the Power Button. The LCD screen and red light will shut off, indicating the device is now off.
- Note: Please be sure to press the Suction Release button prior to shutting off REVO to depressurize the skin for easy removal.
- Each device has two modes:
- Mode 1 (Dynamic "Breathing" Mode): REVO dynamically alters between slowly applying and quickly releasing pressure. It is recommended to use Mode 2 when trying to glide REVO across the skin. A single dash icon appears to indicate Mode 1.
- Mode 2 (Gliding/Scraping Mode): This is the optimal mode for gliding REVO across the skin. Before using, ensure the tube is replaced with the Gliding Tube provided. A double dash icon appears to indicate Mode 2.
- By default, REVO starts up on level 2 pressure and heat intensity.
- To change modes, simply press the Power Button.
Suction/Pressure Intensity Button
- Upon powering on REVO, suction intensity is at level 2 by default.
- To switch between the 12 levels of intensity, simply press the Suction Intensity Button to increase by 1 level. Each press reveals the current intensity level on the LCD screen briefly before switching back to the countdown timer.
- Once level 12 is reached, the next press reverts the intensity back to level 1.
- Note: For beginners, it is strongly recommended to start with level 1 intensity for a few minutes as your skin needs to adapt. Pay close attention during initial sessions to avoid overworking the skin. Advanced users may use higher levels for a maximum of 20 minutes on each targeted area, every other day.
REVO is not responsible for skin injuries caused by misuse or overuse. Please be mindful when undergoing cupping therapy.
Temperature Control Button
- Level 2 temperature + Red Light Therapy is activated by default. The temperature has 12 levels of heat. Each press reveals the current temperature level on the LCD screen briefly before switching back to the countdown timer.
- Upon reaching level 12, the next press brings the temperature to 0 (effectively shutting off heat and red light therapy).
- When the temperature level reaches level 9, the temperature indicator on the screen starts flashing between various colors, indicating high levels of heat. Increasing beyond level 9 speeds up the flashing lights.
- Note: Please be careful when selecting heat levels as your skin may not be used to high levels of direct heat. If unsure, keep it at level 1.
Suction/Pressure Release Button
Press to instantly release any pressure. REVO will release any suctioned skin and fall off without any pressure. Please be careful to grab REVO before pressing this button to avoid dropping the device upon suction release.
Cotton Filter
REVO is designed with a circular cotton filter to catch unwanted particles during use, effectively blocking debris from reaching electrical components through the vents. Please carefully clean the REVO after use and replace or clean your filter after each month of use to maximize reliability.
Filter Access: To access the filter, unscrew the transparent cup body. The Cotton Filter is located inside (this filter is not required for the Gliding Tube). After replacing the filter cotton, securely install the transparent tube/cup.
REVO Enhance Kit (sold separately)
Enhance each REVO therapy session with REVO Pre and Post Therapy topicals.
The vitamin-rich Pre-Therapy Oil is used on the skin before applying REVO to allow for easier application, better glide, and to nourish the skin. The Post-Therapy Cream is made in-house with a blend of arnica, magnesium, vitamin K, and menthol, among other natural ingredients, to further maximize session benefits.

REVO Attachment Kit (sold separately)

- The smaller tube for REVO Cuppers targets specific areas like trigger points or acupressure points along the body's meridian lines, creating localized suction to release tension and improve circulation.
- The larger tube effectively targets and suctions larger muscle groups such as leg, chest, and back muscles, saving time and increasing the efficiency of REVO Therapy.

Bruising and Blisters
- Bruising after REVO is normal and a sign that therapy is effective and bringing toxins to the skin. However, REVO, or any cupping therapy, may form blisters on the skin.
- Although rare, blisters can form due to overuse (especially for beginners with high intensity/prolonged sessions), negligence to disinfect the skin or REVO prior to use, or sensitive skin.
- Beginners are strongly advised to start slowly at low intensity levels, using REVO for just a couple minutes per muscle group to gauge skin reaction.
- Blisters are extremely rare but a possibility due to the nature of cupping therapy. Pay close attention to each session and stop using REVO immediately if strong discomfort or blisters form.
If you are not comfortable with the possibility of blisters, burns, or bruises, do not use the device or partake in cupping therapy. REVO is not responsible for any skin damage due to misuse or very sensitive skin.
