What is Cupping?

Cupping is a procedure that is a traditional treatment method and is often used in the field of alternative or complementary medicine. Cupping is the process of drawing blood using vacuum glass or plastic containers on the skin. Usually applied to certain points, cupping aims to remove toxins in the body, increase blood circulation and treat some health problems.

Basic features of cupping

Blood Drawing: Cupping is a type of blood drawing procedure performed by small cuts applied to specific areas on the skin or by using glass or plastic containers with thorns. During this process, small amounts of blood are taken from the body.

Cupping: Cupping is performed using glass or plastic containers called “cups”. The cups are placed on the skin surface and the air in them is evacuated by vacuum. This causes the blood under the skin to be drawn to the surface.

Removal of Toxins: Cupping aims to cleanse the blood and harmful toxins in the body. Accordingly, practitioners of this method claim that this process strengthens the immune system and helps to remove toxins from the body.

Alternative Treatment: Cupping is used as an alternative method to treat some health problems or alleviate symptoms. It can be used in the treatment of disorders such as headache, low back pain, migraine, fatigue, rheumatism.

There is no scientific consensus on the effectiveness and safety of cupping and it is considered as one of the traditional medicine practices. While some people claim that it is beneficial for some people, others argue that it can cause side effects and has no scientific basis. It is important to consult with a health professional before considering cupping or other alternative treatment methods. Because such treatments may not be suitable for some people and may carry health risks.
