Cupping
Cupping is used in traditional Chinese medicine to promote healing, relieve pain, and encourage proper flow of Qi. Fire is used to heat the air inside the cup and then as the fire burns out and the air inside cools, it creates a vacuum and the cup is placed upside down on the skin.
What does cupping do?
Cupping is used to treat pain, relieve scar tissue deep within muscles and connective tissues, and reduce swelling and muscle contractures. In addition, like many complementary treatments, cupping is supposed to minimize circulating toxins by drawing them into the skin, where they are more easily eliminated.
What can cupping treat?
It can treat arthritis, including rheumatoid arthritis, back pain, neck pain, knee pain and shoulder pain, breathing problems, such as asthma, carpal tunnel syndrome, gastrointestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel disease (IBD), headaches and migraines, high blood pressure, etc.
