Cupping
Cupping is exerting suction pressure on one or more meridian points using a metal, wooden, glass or plastic “cup”. The cups create partial vacuums at these points and thus influence the Qi-flow along the meridians. There is a visible effect on circulation in the underlying tissue: after approximately 10 minutes the cups leave a clear imprint.
Cupping is not a treatment by itself. Using cupping in an acupuncture session prolongs the treatment by at least a quarter of an hour.
