Wet Cupping Therapy: An Ancient Solution for Migraines and More
Wet cupping therapy is a time-tested treatment used to alleviate migraine and headache symptoms. At SAGE Wellness Center, our therapists incorporate wet cupping alongside other treatments to provide immediate and lasting relief. According to our expert therapists, migraines are often difficult to treat with medications alone, but combining wet cupping with traditional methods can reduce pain by up to 66%, with patients feeling significant relaxation even after the first session. The results are supported by numerous positive reviews from our clients, reflecting the clinical effectiveness of this treatment.
What Does Wet-Cupping Therapy Do?
In the wet cupping process, mild suction is applied to the skin by placing a glass cup for about three minutes. After removing the cup, the therapist makes small cuts on the skin. These small, controlled incisions do not cause excessive bleeding and help reduce swelling in the treated area.
Afterward, the wounds are covered to prevent infection. The therapy helps remove blood blockages, which improves overall blood circulation and stimulates tissue relaxation. Additionally, wet cupping promotes better cell communication and eliminates inflammation by removing cytokines—chemical messengers circulating in the bloodstream.
Benefits of Wet-Cupping Therapy
Wet cupping provides numerous health benefits, including:
- Improved blood circulation: Helps nourish body cells with an adequate oxygen supply, which relaxes tissues and promotes healing.
- Anti-aging effects: By eliminating antioxidants and improving blood flow, wet cupping can help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and freckles, leaving the skin looking rejuvenated.
- Muscle tension relief: Reduces muscle soreness and promotes relaxation.
In addition to migraines and headaches, wet cupping is highly effective for treating various other conditions, including:
- Respiratory issues: Cough, bronchitis, asthma, and bronchial cough.
- Pain relief: Back pain, digestive pain, and joint pain.
- Mental health benefits: Helps alleviate symptoms of depression.
- Other conditions: Acne, infertility, arthritis, anemia, and more.
Skin and Digestive Health
Wet cupping can also improve skin conditions and provide relief from digestive disorders. We recommend combining wet cupping with essential oils for enhanced anti-aging effects. Whether you’re looking to reduce signs of aging or simply relax tense muscles, wet cupping offers a natural and effective alternative to invasive treatments.
Precautions After Wet Cupping
For optimal results and to avoid complications, please follow these guidelines after your wet cupping session:
- Keep the treated area dry: Avoid wetting the treated area, as it can cause infection or inflammation.
- Protect the wounds: Keep the bandages in place to prevent exposure to dirt and bacteria.
- Follow your therapist’s instructions: Adhere to the aftercare advice provided to support the healing process.
