In Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture we use cupping for pain of all types, acute pain, sports injuries, and chronic pain.
Its also great for Pre-Menstrual tension.
Cupping is a method of treating disease that is caused by local congestion.
A partial vacuum is created in a cupping jar, usually by means of heat, which is then applied directly to the skin.
The underlying tissue is drawn up into the jar forming an area of blood stasis.
This appears to bruise the area, or at least turn it a bright red.
