I may get a set of those cups. I've been cupped many times before and it was amazing to see the decrease of "darkness" in the skin the longer you cupped. I also would like to try the sliding over the skin method. I have an appointment with a new acupuncturist in a few weeks who does cupping, but not traditional Chinese. I'm hoping she can offer up some "at home" suggestions.
Thanks for the update. You are an inspiration! Keep up the good work.

It is interesting to see the color changes from the cupping. When I first start working on an area, the skin usually turns pretty dark purple, but as things get healthier, it just turns more of a nice pink color, and the marks fade away much faster. My thoracic outlet area, chest, neck, and the front side of my shoulders still get really purple when I cup them, but they're moving a little bit better all the time, so I keep at it.
