The modern-day stressful lifestyle coupled with lack of exercise affects our metabolic system, resulting in many health complications. To make matters worse, most of these diseases cannot be treated by modern medication.
This has resulted in the emergence of Guasa and Cupping Therapy, an effective technique to enhance health and set the patient free from pain. Guasa and Cupping Therapy is a form of traditional Chinese health therapy.
"It helps get rid of harmful toxins from the body; enhances blood circulation; relaxes the body; and strengthens immunity. The therapy detoxifies and maintains health as well as cures chronic diseases," says Dr. Balakrishna Reddy of Vision Healthcare.
The thepary is practiced on a certain part of the body by creating a vacuum to relieve toxins through the skin. It is done for ailments like spondylosis and other joint pains.
The doctor further added, “Medicinal oil is applied on the body part and rubbed through a Gua sha board made out of horns of water buffaloes. This opens the pores and cupping is done to relieve toxins through skin by sucking. The suction from the cups can penetrate deep into your tissues causing the tissues to release harmful toxins. It triggers the lymphatic system, clears the blood vessels, and stretches and activates the skin," he adds.
Dr. Reddy said that the main reason for pain is lack of blood circulation in a particular region. "Eliminating toxins from the body eases blood circulation. Following a balanced diet and regular exercise after the treatment, the problem will not occur again," he adds.
