A cloth soaked in alcohol is lit with fire and inserted into the cup to remove the air out of the cup and create a vacuum. Cups are then immediately placed on top of meridian lines or on whatever other treatment areas on the body. Because of the vacuum cup is sucked into the skin. The resulting suction is created and helps to pull the blood deep down to the surface of the body. The improved blood and energy flow due to these results in healing.
