Guest guest Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 My emailed receipt has the following: * LhasaOMS.com (www.lhasaoms.com) You can buy cups from them and have them mailed to you. You don't have to be a dr. or anything. I got the addres from a book of Chinese medicine from the library. I ordered 8 fire cups (the receipt says Firecup 3L, which is the next to largest size). I sat down and measured out how wide their mouths were. They're fine for me as there isn't more room on my back for more. The 8 cups were $24; shipping/handling was $8.50. They were mailed to me within a few days. Hope this helps! Oh, on the Webpage, their under " cutanous " in their products section. glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked out there website and I found what you were talking about. I also found some plastic cups on that website that use a pump to create the suction. I was wondering if anyone knew anything about these and if they are worthwhile or not as far as quality, and do they work as well as the glass cups with the fire? I was wondering because it would be more convenient to apply the vacuum with a pump rather than fire (and safer too), and it I could also then do it on myself which could be useful. I saw several sets on the website, but the plastic models all look about the same, just different cups included. I also saw some glass ones, but those seem a bit pricey unless I knew they worked for me. Also some of the sets have magnets with them, and some don't? Does anyone know anything about that? Thanks for your help and your recommendations, I'm looking forward to trying it out =) BTW the webpage I am referring to is http://www.lhasaoms.com/cupping_sets-32-page.html <http://www.lhasaoms.com/cupping_sets-32-page.html> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know anything about that? Do a search in the CH message base for " magnets " . I don't believe any of the posts address magnets and cupping, but they do contain some good info on the generals of using magnets in healing. Including the contraindications.
