Cupping therapy involves placing special cups on the skin to create suction. This suction draws the skin and underlying tissues into the cup, increasing blood flow to the area and encouraging the release of toxins. Cupping is commonly used to relieve muscle tension, reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and promote relaxation. It is also believed to help boost the immune system and treat conditions like respiratory issues, pain, and stress. The treatment may leave temporary circular marks or bruises on the skin, which typically fade within a few days.
