Cupping.
不通這痛,痛則不通
“If there is free flow, there is no pain; if there is lack of free flow, there is pain” - Huang Di Nei Jing
Fire cupping is a technique that uses heat to create a vacuum of suction to draw qi and oxygenated blood flow up to the surface. The cups release the tension of fascia around the muscles to facilitate tissue healing by improving circulation and removing toxins from the muscle layer. Using the meridians on the back, cupping relaxes the sinew so as to align and reinforce the very structure of the body, ensuring free flow and no pain.
