Dry Cupping
The cupping process usually involves creating a small area of low air pressure next to the skin. Cups can be of various shapes, including balls or bells. Plastic and glass are the most common materials used today, replacing the horns, pottery, bronze and bamboo cups used in earlier times.
Low air pressure can be created by heating the cup or by bathing the air inside it with open flame or hot aromatic oils, then placing it against the skin. As the air inside the cup cools, it shrinks and pulls the skin in slightly. Recently, a vacuum is created with a mechanical suction pump acting through a valve located at the top of the cup.
Rubber cups are also available that squeeze air and adapt to uneven or bony surfaces. After removing the cups, the skin marks are normal, apart from the ordinary red rings, which disappear quickly, for disintegration from disintegration, especially if the cup is pulled from one place to another while suctioning. To break down inflamed fibers. Treatments are usually not very painful.
Cupping by fire Fire
Fire cupping involves soaking a cotton ball in pure alcohol. The cotton is gripped by a pair of forceps and lit through a lighter, and, in one motion, is placed in the cup and quickly removed, while the cup is placed on the skin. The fire heats the inside of the cup and a small amount of suction is made by cooling the air and shrinking it again. Massage oil can be applied to create a better seal and at the same time the caps can be allowed to glide over muscle groups. Dark circles may appear where the cup was placed due to the breakdown of capillaries under the skin.
Wet cupping
Wet cupping is also known as hijama, where blood is drawn by local suction from a small skin incision. In Finland, wet plowing has been practiced since at least the 15th century, and it is traditionally done in the sauna. Cupping cups were made of cattle horns, in which a partial vacuum was created by sucking air with a valve mechanism. Cupping is still practiced in Finland as part of a relaxation and health diet.
