Liver Qi Stagnation

abdominal pain and masses: Make sure there is no serious condition creating the pain. Issues like a flare up of IBS, Chrohn’s Disease, Appendicitis, or Gall Stones would be contraindicated. Clients should be warned that with the increase of Qi circulation in the digestive system, the possibility of more frequent and intense bowel movement is likely.

constipation: Cupping can be very helpful in increasing peristalsis, thereby improving digestive function. Caution should be taken if there is a concern with Gallbladder, or Kidney stones. The body can expel stones smaller than a diameter of .5 mm. Anything larger than that, and cupping the area should be strictly avoided.

headache: Headaches can come from many different sources, always perform due diligence. Tension headaches can be relieved by working on the associated tight muscles. When working around the head or neck area, ALWAYS apply cups at a distal region to assist in drawing the blood away from the head.

fertility: Cupping can help circulation and bloodflow in the reproductive organs, which can be effective in fertility treatment. It can also be used to help warm the lower abdomen which provides an ideal environment for fertilization
