What Is Cupping Therapy?

Recently popularized but ancient in origin, cupping is a form of alternative medicine therapy whereby an experienced therapist or cupping practitioner applies cups to the skin to create suction. The suction created by the cups promotes blood flow which can in turn promote healing. Cupping can be performed in order to relieve and treat a number of medical conditions including:
 
  • Muscle pain or discomfort
  • Arthritis, fibromyalgia and other rheumatic diseases
  • Anxiety and depression
  • Varicose veins
  • Allergies, asthma
  • Migraines
  • High blood pressure
  • Eczema, acne and other skin problems
  • Fertility and other women’s health concerns
  • Anemia, hemophilia and other blood disorders

By increasing blood circulation to specific areas, cupping not only relieves tension, it can also improve blood flow and cell repair throughout the body. Dry cupping is the more standardized, effective and widely-used form of cupping and is practiced at Acupuncture Jerusalem. 

 
In Dry Cupping, the cupping therapist uses cups to lightly tug at the skin to bring blood to the surface. No more invasive procedures are involved – there is no bloodletting necessary. While the skin can become bruised as a result of a cupping session, no more serious consequences are felt.
 
Cupping is often practiced as part of a broader treatment plan, and multiple therapy sessions are often required in order to experience a positive outcome. At Acupuncture Jerusalem, a diagnosis is made and a personal treatment plan is drawn in order to ensure best results.

Does Cupping Have Side Effects?

Cupping has become popularized in part due to its safety and lack of meaningful side effects. Dry cupping may result in some bruising, although this typically subsides within 1-2 weeks.  

It is, however, important to seek out a reputable cupping practitioner before undergoing cupping therapy. Proper diagnosis and treatment prescription is critical in order to make certain that cupping will help to alleviate your problem, as opposed to exacerbate it. Jamie Bacharach is an experienced cupping practitioner who trained at the Reidman International College for Complementary and Integrative Medicine in Jerusalem.

Does Cupping Hurt?

Cupping does not hurt when practiced properly, and in fact can often convey a soothing or therapeutic sensation. It has been described as feeling a light tugging at the skin. Although the resulting bruising may look intimidating, there should be minimal or no pain and discomfort experienced as a result of cupping. However, patient medical history must be reviewed in order to ensure that it is safe to perform cupping on the patient.
