Cupping the Sinuses

The sinuses are a system of hollow cavities in the skull. They are interconnected, and it is still uncertain why they exist. One theory is that they humidify the air that we breathe, another is that they reduce the overall weight of the skull. Another theory is that they enhance our voices.
The inside of the nose has ridges that humidify and filter air. A thin wall, called the septum, divides the nose. Most of the sinuses drain into the nose through a small channel or drainage pathway that is called the middle meatus.
Experts are not certain why we have sinuses, but some theories are that it was to help to humidify the air, to help to enhance our voices, or to help lighten the skull.
In general, the sinuses are related to the Earth Element as we understand the Spleen Fluids and so it makes sense that damp foods also impact the sinuses.
Cupping over the points on the Stomach channel. as well as Bitong which are the main sinus areas of the face will help not only with immediate sinus relief but if repeated can clear the residual bacteria in the sinuses and create long lasting effects.
