Cuoco is no stranger to using cupping therapy for body pain. In 2019, she documentedgetting cupping and scraping therapyfrom bodywork expert Flory after an intense workout.
She showed the expertusing a jade gua sha, a Chinese tool that scrapes at the skin to release muscle tissue and improve circulation.
“My angel Flory literally scraping my legs and hips,” Cuoco captioned one video. “I’m so tight I can barely bend or turn. I haven’t been able to actually move in weeks.”
After Cuoco left the therapy appointment, she said that she was “absolutely wrecked” and noted that she needed to spend more time repairing her body.
“I go a few weeks and then I end up not being able to walk,” she said. “I think my body just starts to shut down from just complete overuse. If I don’t take care of it, I’m going to crumble. You’ve got to take care of yourself in order to be able to take care of the things around you.”
Cuoco has sustained major injuries in the past. In July 2018, just five days after her wedding to ex-husbandKarl Cook, shehad shoulder surgery.
She also revealed last year that in September 2010, she had a scary horseback riding accident that nearly resulted in her leg being amputated.
Cuoco, who’s an avid horse jumper and competitor, recalled that she’d been riding at a Los Angeles ranch when her horse got spooked which made her fall off. Seconds later, the horse attempted to jump over her but landed on her left leg. She wasrushed to the hospital with severe injuries.
Doctors originally believed Cuoco wouldn’t be able to walk for months. However, after a two-week stay in the hospital, she was fitted for a walking boot and back on her feet. The accident resulted in Cuoco being written out of two episodes ofBig Bang, but she eventually returned.
