Our body is made up of individual cells that make up the whole. Each cell is a living entity, constantly receiving oxygen and nutrients from blood. When this supply is disrupted, cells become ill or die prematurely and die prematurely. Therefore, if the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the area where cells gather and form an area is not good, our body feels pain. In other words, if the blood supply to a specific area is not smooth, it causes pain.

There are about 156 bones in our body. In the place where the bone meets the bone, a gap is created and there is a curve, and as the blood passes through this place for a long time, some of it stagnates in the gap. The more difficult it is, the more painful it will be. The longer the stagnant blood stays, the more it loses oxygen, and it turns black and accumulates in a sticky form. This disrupts the normal blood flow and cuts off the supply of oxygen and nutrients, resulting in pain. Blood that has been stagnant for a long time without oxygen and nutrients is called dead blood, and the accumulated blood is called blood clot.

You need ingredients to make blood. It is water and food that enters the mouth, and after the book extracts nutrients to make blood, the body always comes out with dregs. So, the liver detoxifies the body hard, and the kidneys filter out the remaining garbage through the large intestine and bladder and excrete it out of the body every day in the form of feces/urine. In other words, as long as we eat food, debris is constantly coming out in our throat, and when the function of the intestines is reduced, the debris flows into the blood more and the blood becomes cloudy and thick. As this sticky blood passes through the crevice, it sticks and accumulates more easily. This is a blood clot, and the main cause of blood clots is that our body cannot live without food. In other words, blood clots accumulate from the moment of birth, from the moment of eating and excreting food, and it is present in everyone and occurs until death. When these blood clots accumulate excessively in a specific area, it causes various diseases including pain.

It is no exaggeration to say that 90% of the causes of pain are blood clots. Blood clots gradually build up again over time. However, if you do not over-accumulate them in a specific area through proper management, you will never get sick for the rest of your life.

In the case of pain treatment, acupuncture and blood cupping are used in parallel, and the blood cupping treatment is usually recommended once a week, and 3 times in total. A small amount of high-quality blood might also be lost during cupping, so sufficient rest and time are needed to recover. After treatment, you must rest for at least 4 days, and the next treatment should be performed within 3 weeks at the latest.

The loss of raw blood during blood cupping is less than one-tenth of the amount of blood drawn during blood donation. It is normal to have some dizziness and fatigue after blood loss, and it usually recovers in about a day.

In addition, most of the blood that comes out during blood cupping is blood clots, and the raw blood is from the muscle layer. The depth of the lancet needle during blood cupping is 2~3mm, which does not damage blood vessels or nerves. All acupuncture needles and lancet needles used at Dana Acupuncture Clinic are disposable, and the tools used are washed every time and sterilized and dried with a UV sterilizer, so there is no risk of infection.

In the pain treatment, all treatment principles include elements that fundamentally improve blood circulation. In other words, if you remove the blood from the body and supply oxygen and nutrients from the high-quality blood, the pain will disappear. Treatments such as Physiotherapy, Chiropractic, and Massage Therapy are methods of relieving blood clots by stimulation from the outside. However, since blood clots accumulate from the inside around the joint, treatment by external stimulation may release blood clots in the epidermal layer, but it cannot remove the ones accumulated deep inside. The effect of treatment does not last for long, and blood clots accumulate again, and the pain repeats.

Dana Acupuncture Clinic’s  blood cupping treatment method removes the internal blood clots directly so it does not recur easily and the effect lasts for a longer time. Once the pain disappears, proper management in daily life keeps the pain from recurring.
