Cupping Therapy 拔罐儿

Cupping therapy traditionally was using a detachable stove chimney put at your back and sucks out the "wet gas" from your muscle which make you feel to ache, sometimes they put on your stomach too if stomachache...

Due to i always doing work with my laptop and less exercise, (ok i confess is "no exercise" if shopping not calculated as an exercise... ) my back always pain for a period, so last year when i visit my friend at Melacca, she bring me to meet a Doctor of Chinese Medicine for a cupping therapy to suck out my poison blood which make me pain at the back, according what she said...


Before she put the cups to suck the blood, she used a needle slightly stab at the area of cupping so that the blood can come out.... U can see my blood which make my neck and shoulder pain was coming out....

My left shoulder...

Experimentally prove that my blood is red just in case you don't know. At the time i got a feeling like hope the liquid coming out were not blood but "fatty acid" squeeze out from my adipose tissue, can imagine just like this... wow! if like that then the business of the clinic must be very good after this.. haha... Nah, wake up, stop dream....



Well, the weird thing was after she removed the cups, she let me see some of my blood was clotting in pieces, means that i have some blood cloted at my back before... so terrible...



After cupping thereapy, my back bruise for 2 weeks...



Sigh, have to wash my cloth which dyed by fat... oh no, is blood...
