Summer is here, which means it's time to show some skin. Losing weight has become a major concern for many women. It's too hot to exercise, and it's impossible to resist ice cream. In that case, you can try cupping therapy for weight loss!
Does cupping therapy really help with weight loss?
Cupping therapy can indeed help with weight loss.
By creating suction on specific areas of the body, cupping therapy can stimulate the meridians, balance the qi and blood, regulate the endocrine system, improve blood and lymph circulation, promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, and accelerate metabolism. This leads to increased heat production and fat consumption. Cupping therapy can eliminate excess superficial fat as well as deep-seated fat, achieving safe and effective weight loss without harming the body.
How long does it take to lose weight with cupping therapy?
In general, noticeable weight loss can be achieved after 3-5 cupping sessions.
Before undergoing cupping therapy for weight loss, it is important to understand one's own physical condition and the causes of obesity. If the desired results are achieved, one treatment course may be sufficient. However, if the effects of cupping therapy are not significant, it is recommended to try other weight loss methods. Additionally, individuals with blood disorders, skin diseases, hypertension, diabetes, or other health conditions should carefully choose their weight loss methods.
What should be noted during cupping therapy for weight loss?
1. Both cupping and gua sha can be used for weight loss, but the duration of each session should not be too long. Improper suction force may cause blisters or even accidents. In severe cases, it may lead to sepsis, so caution is necessary.
2. Cupping therapy also has its drawbacks. It is not scientific to believe that longer duration and stronger suction force will yield better results. The most important thing is for cupping therapy to be effective, regardless of the force applied.
