Cupping
Cupping therapy is done by heating the air in a glass cup and removing some of it to create a vacuum. This cup is then immediately placed on the skin. Tthe vacuum in the cup pulls the skin into it. The cup is kept in this position for some time and then removed, leaving a red round-shaped welt.
According to studies conducted, cupping in combination with acupuncture reduces fibromyalgia symptoms to a greater extent than traditional medication like amitriptyline. Cupping follows the principles of acupunture and works by stimulating the body's natural energy, known as qi.
Do approach a traditional chinese medicine professional for advice and treatment.
