Description

Electronic cupping technology

The present invention relates to a traditional Chinese medicine physiotherapy apparatus, and more particularly to an electronic cupping device. Background technique

Cupping is a traditional physiotherapy method in traditional Chinese medicine. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, it is related to the fact that people are ill with the related meridians. It is said that "the general rule is not painful, but the pain is not acceptable." Cupping treatment is to introduce the negative pressure formed on the acupuncture point of the human body treatment part by cupping, and to guide the meridian to achieve the medical effect of treating the lesion and regulating the normal function of the human body. Because of the good therapeutic effect of cupping, it has long been respected by people.

The traditional cupping method is to first put a burning material such as a paper sheet in the cupping body, and then press the tank mouth on the treatment part of the human body, and the oxygen in the air in the tank is consumed by the burning of the material in the tank, thereby making the tank inner The air pressure is lower than the air pressure outside the tank, and a negative pressure is generated. The traditional cupping uses the combustion method to generate negative pressure, which is easy to cause burns, and the operation is troublesome. Moreover, since the volume ratio of oxygen in the air is constant, the negative pressure generated by the combustion method is also certain, and the treatment requires a large negative When pressed, the combustion method cannot be satisfied.

In order to overcome the shortcomings of the traditional cupping, Chinese Patent No. 90108860.9, filed on Nov. 6, 1990, discloses an "automatic pressure-regulating acupoint cupping massage therapeutic apparatus" which is produced by cupping in a cupping tank by a negative pressure generating device. The negative pressure required for treatment meets the safe and convenient treatment requirements.

However, since ordinary patients are unfamiliar with the distribution of acupuncture points in the human body and the relationship between various diseases and acupuncture points, it is impossible to use the therapeutic apparatus to find acupuncture points according to their own conditions for cupping treatment, and achieve an ideal therapeutic effect. This shortcoming has created a fatal obstacle to the promotion of the family of cupping therapy, especially to the world of cupping therapy. Summary of the invention
