Eight Methods of Cupping: Flash, Fixed, Moving, Shaking, Cutting, Piercing, Pulling, Double.
(1) Flash Cupping Method: Suitable for the head and face, fixed-point pain. {Procedure: After suction, immediately remove the cup, repeat 15-20 times without leaving cupping marks, to alleviate pain.}
(2) Fixed Cupping Method: Suction for 15-20 minutes, fixed points, following meridians to select points, cupping 3-4 times in one session, once an hour.
(3) Moving Cupping Method: Move along the Bladder Meridian and Governing Vessel for 3-5 minutes; {Standard: move diagonally along the intercostal nerves, horizontally along the belt vessel, and horizontally along the inner edge of the scapula.} {Characteristics: Combines the effects of moving cupping and guasha, with diagnostic significance: light red marks, medium purple marks, heavy black lumps.}
(4) Shaking Cupping Method: Suitable for small lumps and nodules. Before suction, apply 0.5ml of Huolong liquid to achieve maximum stretch, do not shake in both directions, duration 5-10 minutes.
(5) Cutting Cupping Method: Used for hard lumps and nodules. Method: Use the edge of a vacuum cup, prepare cotton soaked in herbal liquid, place the cotton on the lump, and use the vacuum cup to cut, similar to cutting small pieces of meat. {Twist two cups together.}
(6) Piercing Cupping Method: Suitable for lumps, nodules, and adhesions. Pierce the edge of the lump, suction 3-4 times, and pierce to draw blood while shaking the cup to enhance efficacy.
(7) Pulling Cupping Method: Suitable for small areas of lumps, nodules, cords, and stiffness. Procedure: Before suction, inject 0.5ml of Huolong liquid into the cup wall and quickly pull back and forth, duration based on the appearance of marks.
(8) Double Cupping Method: Also known as bubble cupping or radical cupping, it has remarkable effects for conditions like thick blood, hypertension, and high blood lipids. It varies by individual; for young women and leaders aged 30-50, the results differ. For beauty: for the general public, one cup after another for 45 minutes, then use a three-edged needle to penetrate and absorb the extracted blood toxins with sanitary paper. It should be done in the morning, allowing time to rest in the afternoon. New sessions should be done six times, every 4-5 days, until no bubbles appear on the skin; if not thorough, small black spots may appear on the back.
Cupping Diagnosis Method: The extracted fluid resembles transparent jelly (indicating thick, sticky blood, high blood lipids). Extracted white bubbles indicate more rheumatism. Extracted yellow bubbles indicate more toxins. Extracted black blood is due to stagnation and blood stasis. Extracted bubbles with foam indicate many impurities. If many small bubbles are extracted, it indicates a high level of impurities. For those affected by wind, the extracted fluid is black-purple, indicating severe rheumatism.
A person may simultaneously exhibit symptoms of qi stagnation and blood stasis, yellow bubbles, white bubbles, purple bubbles, and a short lifespan, which is not due to climate but mainly due to not eating garlic. Long-lived individuals, especially in the north, consume garlic daily; garlic is known to treat cancer, and those who eat garlic regularly are less prone to infectious diseases. Stiffness and rigidity in the back are related to internal toxins.
The eight cupping methods have beauty-enhancing effects, and when used in combination, they can yield unexpected results.
