Cupping拔罐治療

Cupping therapy is a traditional Chinese medicine therapy. It acts on the skin of the body surface, adjusts the functions of the viscera, strengthens the body, removes pathogens, and balances yin and yang through the overall action of the viscera, meridians, qi and blood. In the self-adjustment of the body, cupping therapy produces the effects of activating qi and blood, relaxing tendons and collaterals, reducing swelling and pain, dispelling wind and dampness, and promoting the reconciliation of yin and yang of the body, thereby restoring normal functions.

Cupping therapy has a wide range of applications, and it has long been developed to treat more than 100 diseases including internal medicine, surgery, gynecology, pediatrics, dermatology, and ENT. Especially in recent years, some diseases such as Behcet's disease, postoperative abdominal distension, as well as some difficult emergencies such as senile chronic bronchitis, pulmonary etc., have also achieved unexpected results by using this method. Due to the unique medical mechanism of cupping therapy, it has obvious pain relief effect. Whether it is headache, abdominal pain, biliary colic, rheumatic pain, or acute lumbar sprain, chronic soft tissue injury, cupping therapy can be used to achieve immediate curative effect.

The analgesic effect of pricking and cupping is particularly significant. TCM believes that the pain is mostly caused by the blockage of the meridians and the blood stasis, and cupping can effectively remove blood stasis, clear meridians and activate collaterals.
