Wet cupping

Wet cupping is a therapeutic practice that involves creating suction on the skin using cups, followed by small incisions to draw out a small amount of blood. This technique is believed to improve circulation, relieve pain, and promote healing by removing stagnant blood. It’s often used in traditional medicine systems, such as in parts of the Middle East and Asia. While some people report benefits from wet cupping, scientific evidence on its effectiveness is still limited, and it should be done by trained professionals to minimize risks of infection or other complications.
