Suction Cupping is a modern development based on traditional cupping. It produces the effects of traditional cupping methods and eliminates some of the disadvantages.
Strong, superior grade cupping set with pistol grip suction pump gun, 24 cups. Light, break-resisting and age-resisting plastic. Variety of cup sizes, plus a user manual containing diagrams, and application instructions. Also included are magnetic "needles" (non-penetrating pressure-giving points) of both polarities, which give balanced magnetic exposure of traditional acupuncture points. The magnetic "needles" (strength 2000 ~ 2500 gauss) apply a continuous, spring-adjusted pressure on the skin when installed. They are easily removable from the dome of each cup and equally easy to re-install.
SEE WHAT THE CUPS ARE DOING; SAFE AND CONTROLLABLE
The cups' transparency lets you clearly see the reddening that takes place in the skin as cupping time increases, so you can completely control the cupping as to its effects and the optimal cupping time needed. Without the use of fire there is not the danger of burning the skin; and the negative pressure within the cup can be tailored to each patient's condition, as you control it by hand using the pressure gun.
THE DESIGN MAXIMIZES EFFECTIVENESS, THE MANUFACTURING IS UNEQUALLED
Every piece in the Suction Cupping set is virtually unbreakable, convenient, safe and suitable for both clinical and family use.

Wash cups and target areas on skin with warm, lightly salty water, and dry before cupping.

Before performing cupping procedure with a suction cup, make sure the inside of the cup is clean and the assembly is intac
4.
Select an appropriate size or type of cup
5.
Smear an appropriate amount of oil, or skin cream onto the target area.
6.
Connect the connecters, cup and pump gun, and place the cup on the appropriate part of the body. Draw the gun handle to withdraw air from the cup. Remove Connector to leave cup attached to skin by vacuum pressure. Cups may be moved while attached, the cream or oil acting as a lubricant.
7.
The cups can be used individually or in combination according to your preference.
8.
After the desired elapsed time, simply release the pressure in the cup by pulling up on the cup’s valve to release vacuum. Always use this method to release cup gently to prevent skin damage.
9.
It is normal for darkening to appear on the skin where cups are applied. This will dissipate in a few days.
10.
It is possible that sometimes blisters may appear on the skin where the cup has been attached. When the blistering is serious, routine sterilization is necessary. Prick the blisters and apply disinfectant.
11.
During each cupping session, keep the room warm.
12.
Use for no more than 15 minutes / target area, 1~2 times daily, 10 days / area. (After 10 days, give the area a rest of at least 1-2 days).
Gwyneth Paltrow used cupping therapy, as could be seen by the circular marks on her back, normal after cupping.
Gua Sha - another way to release muscle tension and tightness. Rub an area of the body with a traditional Gua Sha tool and cream or oil for a thorough massage.
