It may seem unbelievable, but a centuries-old method of cupping can help you with back pain, colds, but even cellulite. However, some bruises will remain on your body for a few days as a memory.

The first mention of cupping comes not only from China, but also from ancient Egypt and Greece. It is a treatment method that is often combined with acupuncture. 

Cupp and flame

 The cupp treatment is carried out by heating the inside of the glass cupp with a flame, creating a vacuum in it and applying the cupp to the skin. Thanks to this, the tissue is perfused very intensely, which a classic massage cannot do. After applying the cupp, a hematoma will form on your skin, which is not painful at all, it will only remain as  "a memory" for a few days. Cupp are applied to reflex zones, acupuncture points, shu points, directly to the sore spot or are used for massage.
