Haci Suction Cupping Set – 18 Cups MINI CUPPING, MAGNETIC POINTS WITH SIMPLE SQUEEZE BULB ACTION
When shopping for my cups I wanted versatile ones that I could use in the traditional way (leaving them in one place) and also in massage cupping (where the cups are moved along the body). I purchased these because I figured the squeeze bulb would be much easier than the hand pump ones or the glass cups that require the use of fire. Also, the magnetic points sound like an excellent addition. That said, the magnetic points are great when using the cups in the traditional way. They stimulate acupressure points and enchance the cupping effects. However, when performing massage cupping they are a complete nuisance. As you glide the cup over the muscle the magnetic point scratches the skin. My clients have advised that the scratching is tolerable, but still uncomfortable. Massage cupping should be extremely relaxing so this scratching is definite interference. Most cups that come equipped with magnetic points enable you to remove them. I do not see how this is possible with these cups. No instructions came with them either.
My second complaint with these cups is that the item descriptions states that they are “virtually unbreakable. ” Hah. I had placed one on my neck to try it out while sitting at my computer. It fell off, onto the ground and cracked. Mind you I was sitting down so the fall was not far. Being plastic I figured they would be unbreakable. Not the case.
In conclusion, if you want to use these cups for traditional cupping therapy (leaving them “parked” on a congested area) then they would be great. However, massage cupping is an amazingly effective treatment so if you are going to use cups, why not implement massage cupping, as well? In that case, these are not the best choice. I will send mine back only for that reason.
