Types of Cupping
There are various different types of cupping such as
:
Light Cupping: Use a weak suction in cup to do light cupping , it is suitable for children and elderly people.
Medium Cupping: A medium strength, general purpose cupping.
Strong Cupping: Suction will be great and therefore it is not suitable for children and elderly people.
Moving Cupping or Massage Cupping, is a great method of massage and will be done by applying oil to the skin and moving the cup, by a weak suction, on the area to be treated.
Needle Cupping: We do acupuncture and cupping in the same place by applying the needle first then the cup is applied over it
Hot Cupping: Dried Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris) leaves, sometimes called by its oriental name Moxa is a great warming herb. We use a needle, warmed by Dried Mugwort, then the cup is applied over it
Flash Cupping is the name given when several medium cuppings are preformed several times in quick succession along the area being treated to stimulate it.
Bleeding Cupping, also called Full Cupping or Wet Cupping, it is the most frequently used, oldest and often most effective method. A surgical instrument is use to scrape the skin and the cup is then applied to collect blood.
