What are the advantages and disadvantages of cupping on the body? Who is it suitable for?

In daily life, many people like cupping. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, the meridians and acupoints of the human body are closely related to the organs in the body. Therefore, external force can stimulate meridians and acupoints to achieve the effect of conditioning the internal organs, and cupping is a very common method. In fact, cupping has a history of thousands of years, and it is also a very old treatment method. So ... what are the benefits of cupping? In fact, cupping has three main advantages:

The first advantage is relaxing tendons and activating collaterals, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Cupping can stimulate meridians and acupoints, so that the capillaries of the skin will expand and the blood circulation will be accelerated, thus achieving the effects of dredging collaterals and removing blood stasis and improving the blood circulation of the human body.

The second advantage is to dispel dampness and cold. Cupping can suck out the cold in the body through external force to achieve the purpose of eliminating dampness and dispelling cold.

The third benefit is to relieve swelling and pain and expel toxins from the body. We know that the negative pressure produced by cupping is very strong. Under such a strong negative pressure, the toxins in the human body can be directly discharged from the pores.

The fourth benefit is to enhance immunity. According to related research, cupping can restore high or low immunoglobulin in patients to normal level, which has a two-way regulation function, can regulate immune function and enhance self-resistance.

It is precisely because there are so many benefits that so many people like cupping. However, after pulling out the can, if you have the following performance, you may be ill:

The first manifestation is the appearance of purple-black spots accompanied by dark spots. This is a manifestation of insufficient blood supply to the human body, indicating that there is accumulated cold in the body.

The second manifestation is bright red and dull, and local fever. This shows that the blood lipids in our body are too thick and high, which is generally caused by yin deficiency.

The third manifestation is ecchymosis or blood bubble gray, and the skin is pale and itchy. This shows that we have a certain degree of deficiency-cold and dampness.

The fourth manifestation is blisters, edema, humidity, and water droplets in the jar. This also shows that there is cold syndrome in the body and the humidity is very heavy.

Of course, some people are suitable for cupping, but some people are actually not suitable for cupping because of physical reasons. These people mainly include:
