This is a therapeutic technique that uses vacuum or hot cups to improve blood and Qi circulation, relieve muscle tension, and improve overall well-being. This method has deep roots in traditional Chinese medicine and is used to treat a variety of ailments and maintain health.
What is Cupping?
Cupping involves the use of glass, silicone, or plastic cups that create a vacuum when placed on the skin. Vacuum cups work by creating negative pressure, while hot cups create a vacuum when they cool. This improves blood circulation, lymph drainage, and energy flow in the body.
Vacuum Cupping: Used to create negative pressure, pulling the skin and underlying tissue into the cup. This stimulates circulation and tissue metabolism.
Hot Cupping: Heated before being applied to the skin, creating a vacuum when they cool. This method also improves circulation and warms the tissue.
How does Cupping Work?
Vacuum creation: Cupping creates a vacuum on the skin, which promotes blood flow to the area, improving circulation and metabolism.
Tissue massage and stretching: The vacuum creates a gentle stretch of the skin and underlying tissue, which promotes muscle relaxation, reduces muscle tension and improves flexibility.
Stimulates lymphatic drainage: Improves drainage of lymphatic fluid, which helps in detoxification and reduction of swelling.
Stimulates energy points: In traditional Chinese medicine, cups are placed on acupuncture points and meridians, which improves the flow of Qi and balances energy.
