What Is Cupping?
Cupping is a treatment that is part of Oriental medicine that can provide an especially pleasant experience. The use of cupping dates back to a Taoist herbalist by the name of Ge Hong in 300 AD. Early Chinese documentation, 3000 years old, used cupping for the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. Officially, the therapeutic practice of cupping was established in the 1950's across hospitals in China after research conducted by Chinese and Soviet Union acupuncturists confirmed the effectiveness and benefits of cupping.
The term "Cupping" is a technique that uses small glass cups or bamboo jars as a suction device that is placed on the skin to disperse and break up stagnation and congestion by drawing congested blood, energy or other humors to the surface.
There are different ways to create the suction in the cups. A common historic method involves swabbing rubbing alcohol onto the bottom of the cup, lighting it with a flame, and placing the cup immediately against the skin. Suction can also be created by inverting a cup over a small flame. Careful action should be taken not to use flames near the skin and are not lit throughout the process of cupping.
When suction has occurred, the cups can be gently moved across the skin (sometimes called “gliding" cupping). Massage oils are sometimes applied to improve movement of the cups along the skin. Cupping causes the skin and superficial muscle layer to be lightly drawn into the cup. It can be thought of as the inverse of massage – rather than applying pressure to muscles, it uses gentle pressure to pull them upward. For most people, this is treatment is relaxing and relieving sensation.
Once applied to the body, cups are generally left in place for about ten minutes. This practice is similar to the practice of Tui Na, a traditional Chinese medicine massage technique that targets acupuncture points as well as painful body parts, and is known to provide relief through pressure.
The side effects of cupping are mild. The most common side effect is bruising and it should be expected. Most people find that skin will return to looking normal within 10 days. Other potential side effects include mild discomfort, skin infection, or burns when used with flame. However, when used carefully and with appropriate application side effects are nominal. We offer primarily suction based cupping products that eliminate the risk associated with open flame or over heating.

The Philosophy Behind Pain and Cupping
“Where there’s stagnation, there will be pain. Remove the stagnation, and you remove the pain.” The old Chinese medical proverb holds that pain results from the congestion, stagnation, and blockage of Qi, or vital energy, vital fluids, lymph, phlegm, and blood. If pain is the essence of disease, then suffering is a result of obstructed or irregular flow in the body. Cupping is a method of breaking up the blockage to restore the body’s natural flow of energy.

Each cup includes a powerful 0.3" diameter magnet, color-coded red bionorth (-) or blue biosouth (+) that contacts the skin during use. Cups may be used with lotions, oils, or creams to improve suction.
