2.Cupping therapy involves heating the air inside a glass cup, which removes some of the air from the cup. The cup is then quickly placed on the skin, and the resulting vacuum pulls the skin part of the way into the cup.

The theory behind cupping is that it moves or stimulates the body's natural energy — also called qi.
