    In fact, both scraping and cupping do not remove moisture. Because the main function of cupping is to activate the meridians and collaterals, qi and blood circulation, reduce swelling and pain, dispel wind and cold, detoxify, etc. Therefore, cupping is often used to treat diseases related to acupuncture. The principle of scraping is similar to cupping. By treating meridians and acupuncture points, it has a good effect on fever, heat stroke, colds and other real diseases, and can alleviate fever and other heat symptoms. In contrast, scraping has a shallow effect, and cupping has a deeper effect; and scraping can only be used on people with real or fever symptoms. The elderly, children, and frail people are not recommended for scraping. Pregnant women should not use it.
