All cupped


All cupped

I recently started to undergo the alternative ancient therapy of cupping, this involves placing a special plastic cup onto the skin & then a gun like aparatus is attached to the neck and air is sucked out, thereby stimulating blood circulation & breaks blood stagnation. I have since then gone 7 times already to my acupuncturist Dr. Wang Yin and so far the terrible neck & head pains I've been experiencing have been steadily getting better. I was even able to doze off during my last session since the pain was more bearable unlike the first few times when it was excruciating. The doctor said that I had years of embedded stagnation which finally culminated in my experiencing the terrible neck & head pains.
