What is Cupping Therapy?

Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. It dates back to ancient Egyptian, Chinese, and Middle Eastern cultures.

The earliest known medical use of cupping dates back to 1550 BC, when the ancient Egyptians made the use of cupping to treat a variety of ailments. The Ebers Papyrus, an ancient Egyptian medical document, describes the use of cupping to treat hemoptysis, fever, and pain.

Today, cupping therapy is used to treat a variety of ailments such as muscle pain, headaches, and even skin conditions. While more research is needed to understand the full benefits of cupping therapy, it is becoming increasingly popular as an alternative treatment option.

Benefits of Suction Cup Therapy

Help In Treating Respiratory Infections

Cupping massage is used as a treatment for respiratory infections. It is thought that the suction created by the cups helps to remove bacteria and other irritants from the airways. This therapy can be used in conjunction with antibiotics or without antibiotics, depending on the severity of the infection.

Help Reduce The Severity Of Asthma Attacks

Suction cup therapy is an effective asthma treatment, as it can help reduce the severity of attacks. The technique is simple: a practitioner cups a person’s skin around the mouth and nose, creating a vacuum. This causes minor pain and can clear the airways of mucus. It is done often combined with other treatments, such as meditation and breathing exercises.

Help Alleviate The Symptoms Of Bronchitis

It is a centuries-old technique that is effective at alleviating the symptoms of bronchitis. By using cups of varying sizes and shapes, practitioners can create suction on the mucous membranes of the lungs to draw out infection and purify the airway. It is most commonly used to treat colds and other upper respiratory infections, but it has also been shown to help treat bronchitis.

Help Reduce The Frequency Of Colds

The therapy involves placing cups on the skin and then using suction to remove air. This causes a vacuum to be created, which helps to clear congestion and promote healing. It can help reduce the frequency of colds and flu by reducing the amount of mucous in the respiratory system.

Help Speed Up Recovery From Sinus Infections

It is effective in speeding up recovery from sinus infections. It involves placing cups on the skin over the sinuses and then using suction to create a vacuum. This pressure causes the sinuses to open up and break down congestion. It is often used with antibiotics or other treatments for sinus infections.

How Back Cupping is Performed?

Back cupping is a therapeutic technique used to reduce pain and stimulate healing.  It involves placing cups on the back, usually on the back of the neck, shoulders, and upper back, and then creating a vacuum by suctioning the air out of the cup.

The vacuum created by the cups draws the skin, muscles, and connective tissues up into the cup, which can increase blood flow and help reduce pain. The process of back cupping begins by heating the cups, either with a flame or an electronic device.

The cups are then placed on the back, usually in an alternating pattern. The suction of the cups will create a vacuum, which can be adjusted to the desired level of intensity. Once the cups are in place, they can be left on the back for anywhere from five to twenty minutes.

During this time, the vacuum created by the cups will draw the skin and muscles up into the cup, which can increase circulation and reduce pain. After the desired amount of time has elapsed, the cups are removed and the area is massaged to help the body readjust to its normal state.

Cupping on the back is a safe and effective way to reduce pain and improve circulation in the back and neck.
