The circular marks on Michael Phelps' shoulders are caused by a therapy technique called cupping. Cupping is believed to help with muscle recovery and pain relief by increasing blood flow to the muscles. The marks are a temporary side effect of the treatment and have become a recognizable symbol of Phelps' dedication to his training and recovery routine.
