The cupping method is used to enhance the therapeutic effect, strengthen the stimulation of the skin and acupoints, and promote blood circulation. First, the cup is sucked onto the skin using the flash fire method, then the cup is lifted and the skin is pulled, and then it is returned to its original state. This process is repeated multiple times, gently and evenly, until bruising appears on the skin. This method is commonly used to extract acupoints on the abdomen. In cupping, it is important to apply moderate pressure. Excessive force can cause the cup to come off, while too little force will not achieve the desired stimulation.
