Cupping Therapy and Circulation: Benefits & Effects
Massage cupping therapy (traditional Chinese medicine) uses heated cups to create suction on the skin, promoting blood flow. Circulatory effects include:
- Increased blood flow: Relieves pain and stiffness.
- Reduced inflammation: Decreases pain and swelling.
- Improved lymphatic drainage: Removes toxins, boosts immunity.
- Relaxation: Eases muscle tension, further improving circulation.
Cupping is generally safe for all ages when performed by a trained practitioner. It can be a helpful adjunct for circulation and musculoskeletal issues.
