Cupping is an external treatment method which uses cupping as a tool to generate negative pressure in cupping by means of suction, combustion and steam. So that cupping can be adsorbed on a certain part of the body surface to produce benign stimulation, thereby regulating the body function and preventing diseases.
Scraping is to remove the blood stasis adhered to the blood vessel wall to the outside of the blood vessel, then reabsorb it into the blood vessel through blood, and then discharge the scraped waste from the urine through systemic circulation. Scraping should be carried out along the meridians, preferably from top to bottom, which is more convenient; The scraper keeps an acute angle below 45 degrees with the skin, which is not too painful. It's best to use waist strength when scraping, which will save a lot of effort.
Speaking of the benefits of scraping, the first is to promote metabolism and expel toxins. The human body is constantly undergoing metabolic activities every day, and the wastes generated in the metabolic process should be excreted in time. Scraping can scrape the metabolic "garbage" in the body to the body surface in time and deposit it in the pores under the skin, so that the blood flow in the body is smooth and the natural vitality is restored.
The second is relaxing muscles and activating collaterals. Now more and more friends are suffering from cervical spondylosis, scapulohumeral periarthritis and low back pain. This is because when the "soft tissue" of the human body is injured, the muscles will be in a state of tension, contraction and even spasm, resulting in painful symptoms. If not treated in time, people will form different degrees of adhesion, fibrosis or scarring, thus aggravating the condition; Scraping can relax muscles and collaterals and eliminate pain focus; Relieving muscle tension can obviously relieve pain symptoms and is also conducive to the recovery of lesions.
