Vacuum massage with cups: how it can be useful 🤗
It was first mentioned in 1500 BC. Chinese doctors used bamboo stems or clay sticks for this procedure. Ancient doctors already knew that a diseased organ needs an influx of blood to heal.
Cupping massage is a cosmetic and medical procedure based on the effect of negative pressure on tissues. When special cups are suctioned, a vacuum is created - a rarefied environment.This irritates the nerve endings of the skin, muscles, and blood vessels, which leads to accelerated blood circulation and lymph flow, improved nutrition, and saturation of tissues with oxygen. And these processes occur not only on the surface of tissues, but also in internal organs.
It can be performed on many areas of the body - back, buttocks, legs, arms, stomach, face.
The procedure causes a lot of effects:
🟠blood stagnation is eliminated,
🟠metabolism in the massaged area is accelerated;
🟠skin elasticity increases, its relief is evened out, the outflow from the sebaceous and sweat glands is increased,
🟠due to which it is cleansed of impurities and toxins;
🟠muscles are warmed and relaxed, their tone is normalized, spasms are eliminated;
🟠the work of internal organs is improved;
🟠the body's defenses are stimulated.
