have you heard bentosa or cupping?
my grandmother was sick last week, she complain back pains. my aunt called a friend to help us. her friend performs bentosa. i was so amazed of this kind of treatment!
a vacuum is created by air heated by fire in a cup placed against the skin, mostly at the back. as the air cools, a vacuum forms that pulls up on the skin.
my aunt's friend explained that bentosa involves the sucking of certain acupoints to dredge blockage, activate blood flow and dissolve cold spots in the body.
the treatment is very effective, after the session my grandmother was relieved of her back pains.

Hello klea 28! Yes, ive heard and seen how to perform a bentosa procedure to one person who suffered backache. My grandfather who was a famous faith healer during his time performed this unique method of healing to his patients who suffer from backache. I am so young during those times but the memories was still vivid into my mind, the patient's skin really pulls up, i could see it through several clear glasses which my grandfather put into his back, and afterwards when the whole procedure was finish the patient never complained for pain anymore. I wanted to do this to my husband (bentosa procedure)because he also complained of his aching back, but im afraid for i am not used in doing it, he will be my very first patient to date, if in case. LOL! HAve a nice day!
