Where should I place cupping to warm the uterus?

In today's society, most women suffer from uterine cold, but the severity of the condition varies. Women can judge by themselves whether they have uterine cold. The method of judgment is actually very simple. During menstruation, if it is accompanied by obvious dysmenorrhea and there are often blood clots in the menstrual period, it is usually uterine cold. There are many ways to solve the problem of uterine cold, such as cupping. So which position of cupping is most effective?

Where should I place cupping to warm the uterus?

There are many ways to treat uterine cold, such as hot compress, physical therapy, cupping, external application of plasters, etc. If you use cupping, you can choose acupoints such as Zusanli, Sanyinjiao, Guanyuan, Shenshu, Mingmen, etc., cupping every 3-4 days, and cupping every afternoon.

If you have uterine cold, you can take the Chinese patent medicine Xiaoyao Pills and Ai Fu Nuangong Pills for treatment. During the treatment, you must keep warm and avoid eating raw or cold food.

For uterine cold syndrome, first, do not eat raw, cold, irritating and difficult to digest food. Second, take Ai Fu Nuan Gong Wan, Fu Zi Li Zhong Wan, Qi Zhi Xiang Fu Wan for treatment. Cupping can be done at Guan Yuan Qi Hai acupoint.

1. Warming effect

Cupping has a warming and stimulating effect on local skin, which is most obvious with large fire cups, water cups, and medicine cups. Warm stimulation can dilate blood vessels, promote local blood circulation, improve congestion, strengthen metabolism, accelerate the discharge of waste and toxins in the body, change the nutritional status of local tissues, enhance the permeability of blood vessel walls, enhance the phagocytic activity of white blood cells and reticular cells, enhance local tolerance and the body's resistance, play a role in warming the meridians and dispersing cold, clearing away heat and detoxifying, so as to achieve the purpose of promoting the improvement of the disease.

2 Regulatory effect

The regulating effect of cupping is based on negative pressure or warming effects. First of all, it regulates the nervous system. Due to autologous hemolysis, the body is given a series of benign stimuli, which act on the peripheral receptors of the nervous system and reach the cerebral cortex through centripetal conduction. In addition, the warm stimulation of local skin by cupping is transmitted to the central nervous system through the reflex pathway of skin receptors and vascular receptors, resulting in reflex excitement, thereby regulating the excitation and inhibition process of the cerebral cortex, making it tend to balance, and strengthening the regulatory function of the cerebral cortex on various parts of the body, so that the corresponding tissue metabolism of the affected skin is vigorous, the phagocytosis is enhanced, the body is prompted to recover its function, the imbalance of yin and yang is adjusted, and the disease is gradually cured.

The second is to regulate microcirculation and improve metabolism. The main function of microcirculation is to exchange substances between blood and tissues, and the regulation of its function is of great significance in both physiology and pathology. It can also enhance lymphatic circulation and activate the phagocytic ability of lymphocytes. In addition, due to the autohemolysis phenomenon after cupping, a histamine-like substance is produced, which circulates throughout the body with body fluids, stimulates various organs, and enhances their functional vitality, which helps to restore the body's functions.

3 Negative pressure effect

Research has found that when the human body is cupped with negative pressure suction, a large number of bubbles overflow from the skin surface, thereby enhancing gas exchange in local tissues. Through examination, it was also observed that: negative pressure caused changes in local capillary permeability and capillary rupture, a small amount of blood entered the tissue gap, thereby causing congestion, red blood cells were destroyed, hemoglobin was released, and autohemolysis occurred. In the process of the body's self-adjustment, it produces the effects of promoting qi and blood circulation, relaxing muscles and tendons, reducing swelling and relieving pain, and removing wind and dampness, acting as a benign stimulus to promote the recovery of normal functions.
