Lea addressed her Snapchat following saying, 'So today I did cupping... and now I have all these.'

The petite actress stood in front of her bathroom mirror in only a pair of yellow underwear as she strategically took the video and still images without revealing too much.  

The brunette beauty piled her hair high on top of her head as she stood shirtless with her back toward the mirror.

She snapped a few selfies over her shoulder showing off the large markings.

Michael Phelps and other athletes brought a lot of media attention to cupping during the Rio Olympics, and Gwyneth Paltrow is famously a fan. 

Cupping is an ancient Chinese therapy in which heated glass cups are applied to the skin along the meridians of the body, creating suction as a way of stimulating the flow of energy.

The remedy is used for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being, and it takes about 10 days for the skin to look normal again after a session. 

The Glee alum is currently busy filming the second season of Scream Queens, which premiered last week.

Lea portrays the murderous Hester in the Ryan Murphy-created series, which also stars Emma Roberts, Jamie Lee Curtis and Abigail Breslin.

John Stamos and Taylor Lautner have joined the cast for its second season, which is set in a hospital.

Meanwhile Lea is also starring in upcoming TV series Dimension 404 alongside Robert Buckley, who she briefly dated.

In the fantasy series, Lea will portray Amanda, a type-A girl with a quick wit and a big heart who decides to try out an online matchmaking service after an ugly split from her ex.

Robert is set to play Adam, a naive young man who can't help but fall head over heels for Amanda after they are matched while online dating.

However things go awry when he says 'I love you' too early on in their romance.

Lea and Robert will star in one of six hour-long episodes that make up the series, which gets its name from the 404 error code.

While Lea is currently single, she recently admitted during an appearance on Ellen that Zac Efron and Michael B. Jordan are her celebrity crushes.
