What Is Cupping Therapy

Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. People get it for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage.

Wet cupping creates a mild suction by leaving a cup in place for about 3 minutes. The therapist then removes the cup and uses a small scalpel to make light, tiny cuts on your skin.

Next, he or she does a second suction to draw out a small quantity of blood.

You might get 3-5 cups in your first session. Afterward, you may get a natural antibiotic ointment and bandage to prevent infection. Your skin should look normal again within 10 days. Wet cupping removes harmful substances and toxins from the body to promote healing.

Cupping is an integrative therapy that uses therapeutic cups to release muscle tissue and fascia (connective tissue), develop new blood flow, and encourage the body to release anti-inflammatory chemicals into the blood and muscles. It is also known as decompression therapy, which is often used by physical therapists, athletic trainers and exercise physiologists.
