Myofascial cupping
Cupping therapy is a form of alternative medicine of which cups
are placed on the skin to create suction.
Myofascial cupping was developed at the end of the 20 century.
This new method of cupping consits a valve constructed at
the top of the cup and a small handle-operated pump is
attached so that the practitioner can suction out air
without relying on fire. This gives great
control over the amount of suction and avoides all hazards
​
The Benefit of cupping therapy are as follows...
