The cupping method of rotation is similar to the cupping method of shaking, but it exerts greater force and has a stronger stimulating effect. First, the cup is ignited using a flame, and then it is placed on the skin. The cup is then held in the hand and rotated back and forth. During the operation, the hand should be gentle, and the rotation should be smooth to prevent the cup from falling off. The angle of rotation should be moderate, as too large an angle may not be tolerated by the patient, while too small an angle may not provide enough stimulation. The cupping method of rotation produces greater traction and stimulation on acupuncture points or the skin, thereby improving blood circulation and enhancing treatment effects. It is often used for treating acupuncture points or localized conditions. It is important to ensure that the rim of the cup is smooth to avoid scratching the skin during rotation. The cupping method of rotation can be used in conjunction with the cupping method of walking. Applying a suitable amount of lubricating oil on the skin can help alleviate pain.
