WHAT IS DRY CUPPING THERAPY? ๐
"Michael Phelps, a swimming athlete who has won the most gold medals in history, appeared at the 2016 Olympics with circular red marks on his shoulders due to the application of cupping therapy. Phelps indicated that cupping therapy could relieve his muscle fatigue and soreness. In the National Basketball Association (NBA) of the 2018โ2019 season, LeBron James, Russel Westbrook, and James Harden had received cupping therapy to treat their muscle soreness."
