The singer hasn’t had a smooth ride with her third pregnancy; she’s suffered from swollen feet this month. She posted a follow-up image that revealed that she was trying cupping therapy which is an ancient Chinese massage therapy technique thought to increase blood circulation.

Simpson posted an image of her foot with three suction cup-like tools on it and then showed off the good results.
