What are the hazards of cupping for weight loss without sealing

Untamed cupping for weight loss may lead to skin damage, increased risk of infection, and poor results. Sealing the can is a crucial step in ensuring a tight fit between the can body and the skin during the cupping process. Failure to seal the can can reduce treatment effectiveness and pose health risks.

1. Skin damage: During the cupping process, negative pressure needs to be formed between the can body and the skin. If the can body is not sealed, it will not be able to firmly adhere to the skin, making it easy to slide or fall off, resulting in skin friction damage. This type of injury may manifest as redness, swelling, bruising, or skin breakdown, especially in areas with thinner or more sensitive skin that are more susceptible to impact.

2. Increased risk of infection: unsealed cans can cause air to enter the can, weaken the negative pressure effect, and may also allow bacteria or dirt on the skin surface to enter the can, increasing the risk of infection. Especially after cupping, the skin pores are in an open state, making it easy for bacteria to invade, which may cause local infections or inflammation.

3. Poor effect: The principle of cupping weight loss is to stimulate acupoints and meridians through negative pressure, promoting blood circulation and metabolism. Unfolded cans can lead to insufficient negative pressure, which cannot effectively stimulate acupoints and reduce weight loss effectiveness. The sliding of the tank may also affect the accurate positioning of acupoints, further weakening the therapeutic effect. To ensure the safety and effectiveness of cupping for weight loss, it is recommended to take the following measures:

Choose a professional organization: The cupping operation should be carried out by professionals to ensure a tight fit between the can body and the skin, and to avoid situations where the can body is not sealed.

Pay attention to skin care: avoid taking a shower or coming into contact with cold water immediately after cupping, keep the skin clean and dry, and reduce the risk of infection. Combining healthy diet and exercise: Cupping weight loss should be accompanied by a reasonable diet and moderate exercise, such as low-fat diet, yoga, or jogging, to achieve better weight loss results.

Cupping for weight loss without sealing not only affects the effectiveness, but may also pose health risks. Through standardized operation and scientific nursing, these problems can be effectively avoided, ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the weight loss process.
