Features: With the deepening of healthcare reforms and the growing emphasis on returning to nature, traditional therapies that are safe, effective, convenient, and economical are becoming increasingly popular. To make it easier for the general public to learn how to use the systematic "natural therapy," we have compiled this series of family self-care and treatment books with a strong emphasis on visuals and illustrations. To present the operation of cupping techniques as clearly and understandably as possible, some of the photos in the book use specific angles and movements. In actual practice, readers can flexibly apply these techniques based on the principle of convenient operation. For example, both cupping jars and glass jars or other types of jars can be used; operations can be performed on one side or both sides simultaneously without being rigidly confined. The straight line between the starting and ending acupoints is used to indicate the movement of sliding cupping. This series is aimed at the general public and ordinary families, introducing each step of traditional therapy operations with concise and easy-to-understand text and intuitive images, enabling readers to follow the illustrations for easy learning. The diseases introduced are all common and frequently occurring adaptational conditions, allowing readers to conveniently and promptly perform self-treatment and health care at home after reading the book.
