Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine. Cupping is used in more than 60
countries. Its usage dates back to as far as 1,550 B.C. There are different forms of cupping; the most
common are dry, wet, and fire cupping. Cups are applied onto the skin and a suction is created,
pulling the skin up. It is meant to increase blood flow to certain areas to the body. Not part of medical
practice in the modern era, cupping has been characterized as a pseudoscience. There is no good evidence
it has any health benefits, and there are some risks of harm, especially in case of wet and fire cupping
