Using the principle of a vacuum, a cup is attached onto the skin surface via suction to create a local congestion in order to treat ailments. The common types of cups used are made of glass, bamboo, plastic or silicone.
Cupping may leave some small circular “bruises” on the body, also known as cupping marks. Cupping helps to stimulate the self-regulation of the body.
Benefits:
Promotes circulation of Qi and blood
Reduces swelling and pain
Relieve muscle tension and tightness
Promotes expulsion of wind and dampness
Improves lymphatic system by draining excess fluid and toxins
Promotes cell repairs and healing
Clears heatiness in body
Improves fatigue
Suitable for:
Pain management
Respiratory problems such as chesty cough, cold
Digestive disorders such as bloating, gastric pain, constipation
Migraines
Anxiety and depression
Cupping is suitable for most patients. However, patients with the following conditions may not be suitable for cupping:
Pregnant ladies
Blood disorders or bleed easily
Weak body constitution
Skin conditions such as sensitive skin, blisters or open wounds
Hairy body areas
Extreme fatigue
Things to note:
You can take a warm shower at least 2 hours after cupping
Avoid taking cold food and cold drinks
Keep warm, avoid cold wind
Cupping Colours:
The cupping marks may last for a few days up to two weeks. The colour of the cupping marks reflects the condition of your body. A darker colour cupping mark may indicate poor blood circulation and stagnation of body’s energy Qi.
Kindly inform our TCM physician if you do not wish to leave any cupping marks on the body.
