What are the benefits of cupping and scraping

Cupping and scraping have a very long history in my country. From ancient times to the present, people have used cupping and scraping as a method of health care and disease treatment. Gua Sha has been proven to be an effective treatment for cervical spondylosis and periarthritis of the shoulder, and can also assist in the treatment of breast hyperplasia in women. Regular scraping can enhance physical vitality and improve sub-health conditions. Of course, cupping also has many benefits, which I will introduce below.

It can stretch the muscles, increase the pain threshold, and relieve soreness and fatigue. That is, when the muscles are in a tense state, the local blood perfusion will decrease, which will cause tissue ischemia. However, the moving cupping technique in cupping can stretch the muscles, increase blood perfusion, and increase the local pain threshold, thereby relaxing the muscles and re-storing the required energy. When it is hot, cupping to remove dampness should be done with care and it is best not to exceed a quarter of an hour.

It absorbs toxins and discharges pus, promotes wound healing, and the negative pressure of cupping will help discharge local pus, toxins produced by bacteria and other substances that are not conducive to wound healing. It can also stimulate the growth of granulation tissue and shrink the wound, thereby achieving the purpose of promoting wound healing. Adjust immune function and enhance one's own resistance. Since the blood stasis produced by cupping remains in the tissue gap, it can properly activate the body's immunity and has the ability to clear inflammatory substances. It is a benign self-training. Cupping can promote blood circulation and speed up metabolism. This is because cupping can dilate blood vessels, improve local blood circulation, and thus accelerate the excretion of waste and toxins from the body. It also improves the nutritional status of local tissues and provides more nutrients and oxygen to cells.

In fact, cupping can regulate qi and blood very well, and for female friends, the beauty effect is very significant. However, it should be noted that cupping can treat some radioactive diseases, but it is not particularly effective for treating some cold diseases, and the time of cupping must be controlled. If the time is too long, the cupping area will be damaged due to excessive negative pressure. When cupping, you should also pay attention to fire prevention and scald prevention.
