As the old saying goes, "Blessings and curses are what they are". Between heaven and earth, there is no absolute blessing, there is no absolute disaster.

The role of cupping
Decompression
Modern life and work are stressful, and cupping can help the body to unblock the meridians, which is a good way to relieve back pain for those who have been sitting for a long time. Moreover, cupping can relax the whole body, which has a good effect on stress reduction.
With warming effect
There is a term for cupping called fire cupping, which is a concentrated stimulation of the local skin of the body through cupping, and this warm stimulating effect causes a change in the color of the skin. This change in color is the warmth of the fire cupping that draws out the dampness from the body lesions.
It is the ability to regulate the internal balance of the body
As we know, the ancients believed that the reason why the body has problems is because the body's yin and yang are out of balance, and as long as it is properly regulated, the body's yin and yang will naturally not become diseased. Cupping can do this very well. After cupping, the body produces a substance called histamine-like substance that is sent to all parts of the body with body fluids. It is this substance that enhances the vitality of the organs and helps the body's organism to recover its functions.
After talking about the benefits of cupping to the human body, let's look at the bad effects that improper cupping can bring to the body.
The disadvantages of cupping
Frequent cupping can easily lead to skin infections
The length of cupping time is not necessary related to the effect of cupping. Because cupping is mainly close to the skin of the jar to expel the air in the jar, if the negative pressure is large then cupping time should not be too long, otherwise the body will blister, and in serious cases can cause skin infections. Of course, cupping is not every day to cupping, otherwise it is easy to cause skin infection, but also may have an impact on other acupuncture points, endangering the body.
After cupping can not take a bath and get cold
After cupping, the skin at the jar is in a state of injury, the skin is fragile, if the bath is easy to cause skin damage, resulting in skin diseases. In addition, the pores are open at this time, the body is easy to catch a cold, so after cupping should not blow wind and pay attention to warmth.
