Cupping is divided into two types, that’s wet cupping and dry cupping. Dry cupping includes slide cupping, fire cupping, and pull cupping. The difference between wet cupping and dry cupping is the presence or absence of blood.

This will pull the tissue under the skin and form a blood pool so that a localized healing process occurs. Cupping is very beneficial for these patients although the benefits may not be felt in the short term.

Cupping plays a role in reducing inflammatory mediators formed due to cell inflammation. This substance serves to send pain signals to the brain.
