Cupping is a kind of therapy, which uses cups and cans as tools to expel air by heating, generating negative pressure, making it suck on the skin and make the blood stagnate. Then, when cupping, with the help of the heat of the flame when burning, the moisture and cold in the body penetrate through the skin tissue, thus eliminating evil spirits and making people refreshed.

Because the meridians, acupoints and viscera of the human body are all connected, the external suction will stimulate the acupoints on the body surface, and then adjust the viscera of the human body through the bones and muscles, so as to make people's blood flow smoothly and keep fit.

Cupping varies according to the size, material and negative pressure of cupping. But generally speaking, the time from ignition to can lifting should not exceed ten minutes. Because the main principle of cupping is negative pressure rather than time, if cupping takes too long under the condition of high negative pressure until the blister is pulled out, it will not only hurt the skin, but also cause skin infection.

The best time for cupping every day is 9 am to 12 am.

The period from morning to noon belongs to the rising stage of human yang. At this time, cupping is more helpful for self-moisture regulation, so it is recommended to go to the hospital for cupping after 9: 00 am-12: 00 am.

Cupping therapy is usually once every two days. According to the frequency of hospital treatment, it is usually treated once every two days. When the color is obviously improved after pulling out, you can stop this course of treatment (generally not more than ten times), rest for a while, and then conduct a second course of treatment if necessary.

Some people, after a cupping, the pain does not completely disappear, and continue cupping at the painful part, hoping to cure the disease through this powerful means. Actually, this is not right. If the purplish red mark on the last cupping site has not completely disappeared, cupping cannot be continued at the purplish red mark, and it needs to be switched to the relevant acupoints. Otherwise, it will not only not relieve the pain problem, but also bring more problems.
