By Donna Reed


Some people hate the taste of pills and a select few have a phobia of swallowing them in fear of it getting stuck in their throat. And as a result of these hurdles continue to suffer from aches and pains that may plague them. But there is a solution, low cost therapy Santa Rosa CA, one that is legal and doesn t require the swallowing of any pills of any kind. And it comes in the form of medicupping.

Medicupping may have gained more notoriety due to a certain Olympic athlete but the medical procedure has been around since pharos roamed freely across the land. According to promedicahealthconnect.org a 5 minute session of this alternative medicine is the same as undergoing 30 minutes of deep tissue massage.

Dry cupping is a type of cupping that makes use of a vacuum in order to expand the blood vessels that are available and exploit them in order to assist where they need to in the body. The use of a flammable substance like alcohol and a specialised cup in order to create a vacuum. Rubber seals can be used and are often done in order to reduce the probability of burn wounds.

Wet cupping has all the known benefits of its dry counterpart with a major difference being the small cuts made on the skin to draw blood during the cupping process. Wet cupping hasn t been proven to provide more relief or detox even more than dry cupping but those who engage in it believe it does and sometimes the power of the mind is all that s needed to help with pain relief.

Needle cupping makes use of acupuncture needles that are inserted into the skin and then cupped using glass or bamboo cups in order to create the vacuum. This type of cupping tends to get prickly and is not suitable for those people who tend to get squeamish easily.

The procedure of medicupping is quite easy and fairly safe as far as medical procedures go. However, it s best to consult a physician or a family doctor before engaging in the therapy for extended periods of time. But the advantages outweigh the disadvantages by a landslide but it s better to be safe than sorry.

Once the therapy session is over, patients and/or clients are given ointments to help ease with any of the pain and bruising that may come as a result of the procedure. These ointments are oil based or infused with herbs such as lavender to assist in the healing of damaged skin. A report on the journal of traditional and complementary medicine found that either of these methods can assist those suffering from acne and pain management.

Once you ve been literally sucked dry, you re not left out there to dry. Oils and ointments are available to make use of to sooth the skin from any side effects that may arise such as bruising and burning. But at the same time not interfere with the detox properties of the cupping process by introducing oils that will clog up the pores that have just been opened and cleansed. Because that would be rather counterproductive and make little sense
