Traditional therapy using heated cups, known as fire cupping, involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This practice dates back to ancient cultures and is believed to promote blood flow, reduce pain, and facilitate healing. The cups are usually made of glass, bamboo, or earthenware. During a session, a practitioner heats the air inside the cups and quickly places them on specific areas of the body. The cooling air creates a vacuum, drawing the skin and underlying tissues into the cup. This therapy is often used to treat muscle pain, inflammation, and various other ailments, contributing to overall well-being.
How It Works
Heated cups: Air inside the cups is heated and then cooled to create a vacuum.
Suction: Cups are placed on the skin, creating suction that draws the skin into the cups.
Duration: 5-15 minutes.
Removal: Cups are gently removed by releasing the vacuum.
