Acupuncture is one of the most popular and effective contemporary healing techniques, practised in almost every country on the globe
Cupping
Cupping
Cupping is one of the oldest methods of Traditional Chinese medicine, and a method employed by traditional medicines all around the world.
A vacuum is created inside a glass (or bamboo) cup which is then placed on the patient’s skin. Cupping effectively moves stagnation and alleviates respiratory and musculosceletal problems.
Cupping should leave purple marks which are painless, harmless, and will disappear in a few days’ time. These marks received a great deal of attention in the 2016 Olympics, where cupping was used by the athletic teams to speed recovery and enhance performance.
Generally, cupping is combined with acupuncture in one treatment, but it can also be used as a stand-alone treatment.
Uses of Cupping
Cupping is now widely used in the West by athletes to speed recovery from training, and to aid healing of minor trauma.
It is traditionally used in treatment of respiratory problems such as bronchitis, asthma, allergies and the seasonal flu.
