00:00 If you're with someone who has back pain, it's a sign of aging.
00:04 Let's not deny it.
00:05 Em, count me in, Kim.
00:07 There are many ways to get rid of the pain in your body.
00:11 But can you also relax if your skin feels like it's going to explode
00:16 because of the coldness of your body?
00:20 That's the story of Darlene Kai.
00:25 Feeling dizzy or relaxing?
00:30 The back that seems to be swollen because of the peeling skin
00:33 because of the glass?
00:35 That's what's called cupping therapy
00:39 that can relieve the pain.
00:42 Elmer, a 48-year-old contractor, is looking for a job.
00:50 He's working around the clock every day.
00:55 Back pain is real.
00:57 I used to have back pain.
01:00 I went to a lot of places.
01:03 I was dizzy.
01:04 Cupping therapy is a rescue for him.
01:07 I tried cupping therapy.
01:11 I googled about the benefits.
01:16 So I tried it.
01:18 It was my first time.
01:20 It relieved my pain.
01:24 Elmer took us to his cupping therapy session in Makati.
01:28 Cupping therapy is a type of treatment
01:33 that helps the blood circulation of our body.
01:37 It provides nutrients and oxygen to the tissue of the body.
01:42 It is used by 15 to 20 hard plastic cups
01:47 attached to a suction device or cupping pump.
01:50 Each cupping therapy session lasts for 8 to 10 minutes.
01:54 It helps cool the body
01:57 and can relieve various diseases
02:00 like inflammation and muscle tension.
02:02 It is used at a price of 40 to 60 kilopascals.
02:07 Each session is 1,000 pesos.
02:10 What are the differences between cupping therapy and ventosa therapy?
02:14 Ventosa therapy is for healing and relaxation.
02:19 Cupping therapy is for body treatment.
02:22 The dark spots formed in cupping therapy
02:26 are a symbol of poor blood circulation in the body
02:30 according to Japanese therapist Dr. Kokoro Nakahara.
02:34 Paolo Gonzalez, a licensed physical therapist, explained that
02:38 cupping therapy gives relief to the body's pain.
02:43 Actually, it is very effective.
02:46 But the term is short term.
02:48 It also triggers the wellness that we want to get,
02:53 the pain relief that we want to get.
02:56 Usually, it lasts for 2 or 3 days in our experience.
02:59 It may disappear immediately.
03:01 Yes, it really has a relief effect.
03:04 But what we teach as physical therapists
03:09 are exercises and stretching,
03:12 which is actually what we do after our cupping technique.
03:17 After the session,
03:19 the patient is placed behind a clean removal ointment
03:21 with a light massage to be able to touch the patient.
03:25 While doing the treatment,
03:27 my muscles are stretched
03:30 so the pain and the numbness are relieved.
03:36 When working, always take time to relax
03:40 because every minute you devote to yourself
03:44 can give you more strength to fight the challenge of life.
03:50 I am Darlene Kaye, and that is the story you need to know.
03:55 I love you.
03:56 I love you.
