Cupping

Chinese cupping is an ancient therapeutic practice that involves placing glass, bamboo, or silicone cups on the skin to create suction. This technique is believed to stimulate blood flow, reduce muscle tension, and promote healing. By encouraging blood flow to the surface, cupping is thought to help remove toxins and improve overall energy flow, or "qi," in the body. Commonly used for relieving pain, inflammation, and stress, cupping therapy remains a popular and effective method in traditional Chinese medicine.
