Many conditions and ailments that we suffer from are related to inflammation. This includes all conditions that end with the word “itis” such as arthritis, tendonitis, gastritis, appendicitis etc. The common factor in all these conditions is that there is too much unwanted inflammation in that area.
This is why anti-inflammatory medication is regularly prescribed by doctors to try and reduce the amount of this inflammation.
Unwanted inflammation can be simplified as a state in which there is too much blood in an area causing pressure and stagnation, thus preventing the regular flow of nutrient and waste exchange. This results in pain and compromised natural healing abilities.
If left untreated this can develop into a chronic state in which the reduced blood flow allows the build up of waste, carbon dioxide and acidity, causing further pressure, cell damage, pain, and discomfort leading to more inflammation, perpetuating the problem.
Chemical drugs can be used to reduce pain and dampen down inflammation but cupping therapy has the unique ability of drawing out inflammation, stagnant blood, cell debris and toxins from deep within the body to the surface of the skin.
By utilising wet cupping therapy this built up pressure can be released through tiny pin pricks or light scratches on the skin. This often gives instantaneous relief and allows fresh blood, nutrients and oxygen to penetrate the area breaking the cycle of pain and discomfort.
Traditionally it has been understood that wet cupping also allows a process of purifying the blood and removing unwanted materials from the system. Many times there are unwanted or high levels of harmful elements in the blood such as cholesterol, uric acid, calcium deposits, rheumatoid factors and chemical messengers that modulate inflammation. By removing these elements you can reduce the problems that they cause and reduce pain, discomfort and inevitably disease.
For this reason hijama (wet cupping) therapy has been used throughout history to treat a wide range of conditions and even as a preventative medicine. The feeling of wellbeing, looseness in the body and higher levels of energy are common reports of patients undergoing this form of treatment.
NOTE:
cupping should only be done by a qualified therapist. It is a medical procedure which requires expertise. Don't go to just anyone to perform it because the experience may leave you traumatised.
