Cupping therapy is what many consider as a novelty therapy for all the right reasons. Imagine lying down in a clinic or alternative medicine center and having someone place cups on your back. That’s the basic premise and idea behind cupping but did you know that there’s a science behind cupping and whatever type of cupping San Clemente, cupping Dana Point and cupping Laguna Hills you might have received was the one appropriate for your scenario or your situation. In today’s holistic set up, there are two classifications of cupping. There’s dry cupping and then there’s wet cupping. Dry cupping is the usual cupping treatment that we regularly see involving the use of air to suck in the skin thus removing any impurities that lie within. The other type of cupping therapy is called “wet cupping” in which a small controlled wound is created before the cups enter the scene. The goal of wet cupping is to quickly dispel any bad blood that has been circulating in the body. Both types of cupping therapy are still being practiced in one form or another in this day and age. The latter is rarely used.

While the actual subject of cupping has polarized modern man, it wasn’t that way centuries ago when cupping was widely practiced in almost every part of the world. Three major civilizations have at one point or another followed the usage of cupping. Ancient China has used cupping as early as 1,000 B.C. while Egyptian scholars were believed to have practiced cupping at around 1550 BC. Even the famous Greek physician Hippocrates was noted to have used cupping during his time. Cupping San Clemente, cupping Dana Point and cupping Laguna Hills clinics and holistic centers may have adapted the use of this particular therapy but they owe a big deal to the hundreds of hours spent on researching and perfecting this technique from their forefathers.

If we are to judge the popularity of cupping San Clemente, cupping Dana Point and cupping Laguna Hills and in other parts of the world, it is safe to assume that it will not be expiring or fading away anytime soon. There’s a belief that rather than blending in with the fads, cupping itself, will stick around for a long while. It will be improved and scrutinized until it progresses to something more efficient. In the future, some decades from now, cupping will not just alleviate things like rheumatism, blood disorders, skin problems, and fertility problems but will also be used for other things like helping the battle against cancer and so much more.
