Speaking of cupping therapy, we are all familiar with it. Many friends have also experienced cupping therapy, and I believe they all feel the same way. Cupping will be on the back almost every time, so "why is cupping behind?" According to Chinese medicine, cupping also has a reason. Why is cupping backward? Chinese medicine believes that the abdomen is yin and the back is yang. On the back, there are Du Meridian, Foot Taiyang Bladder Meridian and Back Shu points running through the whole body. These acupoints are distributed on the bladder meridian, corresponding to the viscera and reflecting the physiological and pathological conditions of the viscera. Traditional medicine pays attention to the health care of the back, that is, cupping, chiropractic, back rubbing, back pounding and scraping. It acts on the back meridians and back Shu points, and plays a role in strengthening the body and assisting in the treatment of corresponding visceral diseases. According to experts, most modern people are sedentary and have little activity, which easily leads to poor blood circulation in the back meridians. Cupping can dredge meridians, promote qi and blood circulation, relieve swelling and pain, and dispel wind and cold. Moreover, the back is relatively flat, the muscles are rich, and cupping is easy, especially pulling the bladder meridian, which is the most common means of health preservation. At present, cupping is mainly moved from neck to back along the bladder meridian, and then cupping is left at specific acupoints. The most advantageous curative effect of cupping is that it can dredge meridians, dispel wind and dispel cold, and it has the best adjuvant treatment effect on shoulder, back and waist pain caused by common cold or cold. For a cold, you can choose Dazhui, Shu Fei and Fengmen. Lumbago is mostly cupping at the painful part. The storage time varies from person to person, and should not exceed 15 minutes. Usually, about 5 minutes is the safest.
