Cupping usually has the functions of dispelling cold and removing dampness, promoting blood circulation and dredging collaterals, removing blood stasis, relieving swelling and pain, and clearing away heat and toxic materials. However, people with heavy humidity should pay attention to distinguish whether their physique is external or internal when cupping. Not everyone with heavy humidity can get rid of dampness through cupping.
2 The principle of cupping dehumidification cupping is to generate negative pressure in the tank through exhaust, pulling the muscles and blood vessels in the skin, thus generating some reactions, so as to achieve the purpose of improving blood circulation and discharging moisture in the body.
3 where to go for cupping Yongquan point Yongquan point location: Yongquan point is located at the front 1/3 of the connecting line between the toe seam of the second and third toes and the heel.
Yongquan point is the point of Shaoyin Kidney Meridian, which means "Qi of Kidney Meridian". When the physiological function of kidney is abnormal, it is easy to cause water-liquid metabolism disorder. Cupping at Yongquan point is helpful to dredge qi and blood, dredge kidney meridian and eliminate damp, toxic and turbid qi in the body.
Zusanli point Zusanli point location: Zusanli point is located in the lower limbs of human body, before and after regression, 3 inches under the nose of the calf and a horizontal finger at the front edge of the tibia.
Zusanli (Zusanli) is the meeting point of stomach meridian of Zuyangming, which has the functions of dredging spleen and stomach, promoting human metabolism, regulating digestive system and improving endocrine function. Cupping to stimulate this point is helpful to restore the function of spleen and stomach to transport water and dampness, and to eliminate moisture in the body.
4 Cupping and dampness should pay attention to what moisture is heavy, which can be divided into external dampness and internal dampness. Due to the humid climate, showering, wearing wet clothes, blowing air conditioning after bathing and other reasons, external evils invaded, and the water in the body could not evaporate and the water stopped gathering. This kind of moisture is exogenous moisture, and cupping is very effective in regulating this situation; However, if it is because of eating too much cold food, or overeating and staying up too much, the spleen can't be transported normally, and it is wet inside, so the therapeutic effect of cupping is not so obvious. Therefore, cupping only has a good effect on cold and dampness, but it has a weak effect on damp and heat.
