Cupping therapy
Cupping therapy is an ancient healing method that may ease back pain, neck pain, headaches and other issues. A provider places cups on your back, stomach, arms, legs or other parts of your body, and suction inside the cup pulls your skin upward and increases blood flow to the area. It is a form of traditional medicine that originated in China and West Asia and has been practiced for thousands of years.
What does cupping do? People mostly use cupping to relieve conditions that cause pain. It may ease symptoms of arthritis, back, neck, knee and shoulder pain, asthma and other breathing issues, carpal tunnel syndrome, gastrointestinal disorders, headaches and migraines, and high blood pressure.
How does it work? Suction draws fluid into the treated area, expanding tiny blood vessels under the skin. Your body replenishes the cupped areas with healthier blood flow and stimulates normal healing at a cellular level. Cupping causes bruising, and while evidence on its benefits is mixed, the treatment risks are generally low.
