A study published in the Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences evaluated the use of wet cupping therapy (WCT) for mild to moderate asthma. Cupping therapy, in which localized suction is created on the skin with the application of heated cups, is a traditional method used in Persian medicine for treating various ailments. The study included 82 asthma patients divided into two groups: the control group was treated with common asthma medications, and the intervention group received three sessions of WCT between the shoulders. Clinical signs of asthma were gathered from all patients over eight weeks following the WCT. The researchers concluded that WCT can be an efficient therapy to improve respiratory complications of asthma patients.
