There are many spots on the skin after cupping

As people pay more and more attention to their health, various methods such as exercise, fitness and health care are gradually covering everyone's concerns. For friends who usually lack shoulder exercise, it may be due to the obstruction of the belt meridian, and they need to use methods such as massage and cupping to help the meridians function better, unblock some blocked areas, and better promote blood circulation. Because the shoulder area connects the brain and body of the human body and is an important nerve center, regular cupping of the shoulder area can improve physical fitness, not only facilitate blood circulation, but also improve sleep and memory.

Some friends may have misunderstandings about cupping. It is a derivative method of cupping, also known as pushing cupping. Generally, for people with severe congestion in the body, before receiving cupping treatment, the doctor will apply an appropriate massage oil or a thin layer of glycerin or other oil to the parts that need cupping for lubrication in advance. This will provide a layer of material protection and can better reduce damage to the skin.

Some people with severe liver fire or severe congestion in certain parts of their body will experience the onset of sha sooner, especially around the shoulder. Because many people have a low rate of shoulder exercise in their daily life and often maintain a fixed sitting posture, if the shoulder is severely blocked, it will also affect the blood supply to the head, which will cause great damage to everyone's memory and energy, and will also cause symptoms such as nightmares at night. But there is no need to worry after the sha appears. Different colors of sha will reflect different pathological conditions.

When the doctor is moving the cupping needle, he will push it back and forth, so the treated area will appear redness of the skin, and serious areas will have hematoma, congestion, etc. If the color of the sha appears purple and black, and is also very dark, it generally indicates that the patient's shoulder area blood supply is very insufficient. Such people have blocked menstruation in the shoulder area, so blood stasis will be more serious when cupping is performed, and they need to pay attention to treatment. If the color of the sha is bright red and brighter, it means that the patient's shoulder periarthritis and body are deficient in qi and blood, and attention should be paid to nourishing yin and tonifying yang. In addition, the pores of the skin are open after cupping, so be careful not to catch a cold.
