When the body is under negative pressure during cupping, a large number of bubbles will overflow from the skin surface, thereby strengthening the gas exchange of this part of the tissue, improving the permeability of capillaries, and the less blood will dissolve into the tissue gaps to produce blood stasis, which is autohemolysis. Through the body's self-regulation, it can play a role in promoting qi and blood circulation, relaxing the meridians and activating the collaterals, reducing swelling and relieving pain. This is a benign stimulation that can promote the body's normal recovery.

When cupping, the human skin will feel warm and stimulated, causing blood vessels to dilate, promoting local blood circulation, improving metabolism, and speeding up the excretion of waste in the body, thereby effectively improving the nutritional status of local tissues, enhancing their tolerance and the body's resistance to disease, and playing a role in clearing away heat and detoxifying, warming the meridians and dispersing cold.

In modern medicine, cupping has been used to treat many diseases, such as the muscle and bone pain that often occurs in the cold autumn and winter. When cupping, cover the affected area with the cupping mouth, which can slowly absorb the moisture from the affected area, promote local blood circulation, and play a role in treating pain and restoring the normal function of muscles and bones.
