no... what's up with that?

Yes, actually... well my mom and grandma did it to me. I used to get bronchitis a lot when I was a kid and there's an old remedy that involved getting little bottles, getting all the air out of them by lighting the inside on fire, and suctioning them to your back.

It doesn't hurt at all but you get big bumps on your back that are even higher than the ones pictured. It was always a lot of fun when my mom would do it.

A few years back I remember someone got arrested because they considered it child abuse. I used to love it and there definitely wasn't any pain, but it did look horrendous.

its called cupping and its used in chinese medicine, the idea is to bring new blood flow to the area that is causing pain.

some celebrities used this kinda medication...

Isn't that called "cupping". I've heard it's good for you...supposed to draw the toxins out of your body or some such.

yes Viki.. in the old days we would use glass and fire.. now they make it easier to use...
it doesn't hurt if you are feeling under the weather, but if you are healthy, it does not feel good, afterwards.!

Wtf?


.......

Yes, when i was small. They made it to me twice....

yes, it works

At first I was thinking "wtf' and then I read your reply and now I'm "wtf x2" haha. I've never heard of this or seen it, but to those that do or have done it I say more power to you. I'll pass on it though.
