Is cupping good for young people?

As young people face increasing work pressure and their physical fitness declines, cupping, a method of soothing the body, is appearing more and more frequently among young people. I believe many young people are familiar with it. However, there are still many young people who do not understand cupping and do not know whether their bodies are suitable for cupping and whether cupping will cause any harm to the body. Today I would like to discuss with you whether cupping is good for young people.

1. Benefits of cupping

The meridians, acupoints, and internal organs in the human body are all connected and interconnected. Therefore, when cupping, by stimulating the acupoints on the surface of the body, the inside of the body will also be regulated, which can promote the smooth flow of qi and blood and improve the body's immunity. At the same time, if the body has tissue damage and symptoms such as lumbar disc herniation, cupping can also play a great role. It can relieve body pain and expel cold and moisture in the body, which is beneficial to health. In addition, cupping can help the body relieve stress. In the process of self-adjustment of the body, it can promote qi and blood circulation, relax muscles and tendons, reduce swelling and relieve pain, etc., forming a benign stimulation to the organs, which can promote the recovery of normal function.

2. Disadvantages of cupping

Although cupping has many benefits for young people, it also has certain disadvantages and you should know more about it. If you cupping frequently, it is easy to cause skin infection. Some friends may think that cupping should be done for at least half an hour to be effective. In fact, according to Chinese medicine, the size, material and negative pressure of the cupping cup are different. Try to control it to about 10 minutes from lighting the fire to removing the cupping cup. If it is too long, it is easy to get blisters, cause great damage to the skin, and cause skin infection. At the same time, after cupping, you will catch a cold if you take a shower. You should pay more attention to this aspect. After cupping, the skin is relatively fragile. It is easy to get skin damage and inflammation if you take a shower at this time, and taking a cold shower will cause the body to catch a cold. In addition, the most serious thing is that cupping causes the pores to open, which can easily cause a stroke. When the pores open, the cold air from the outside can easily enter, thus inducing a cold, and in severe cases, it can lead to a stroke.

The above are the advantages and disadvantages that cupping can bring to young people. Everything has two sides, so we must learn more about it. Although cupping can help us relieve physical fatigue, remove inflammation and moisture from the body, and promote physical and mental health, the disadvantages cannot be ignored. I hope that the above article can help more friends and also increase their vigilance. For the sake of physical health, we must learn more.
