Cupping is a method of stimulating acupuncture points by applying suction through a glass jar, in which a partial vacuum has been created. The reduced pressure within the cups draws the skin up into it. Cupping is a highly effective treatment for reducing pain or congestion. People often notice an immediate difference after treatment. Cupping affects the body’s tissue up to four inches deep and is thought to be the best form of deep tissue massage available and is a method which is safe and reliable for most people. The suction or vacuum required for cupping is most commonly created by a flame (heat) or pump.
