- W2617984188 abstract "Cupping is an alternative therapy used by athletes to purportedly improve performance or enhance recovery. Bell shaped cups are placed on the skin (above a targeted muscle) and air is withdrawn to create a vacuum against the skin surface. Blood flow is expected to improve under the cup area during the application and impact somatosensory integrity and performance. PURPOSE: To determine the effect of chronic Cupping Therapy (CUP) on unilateral hip flexibility, balance, and muscular power, 12 subjects (age 21.4± 1.2, ht. 167.6 ± 8.4 cm, and body mass 71.6 ± 18.2 kg, 7♀) participated. METHODS: Familiarization trials ensured reliability. Testing was conducted within 15 minutes after CUP for four consecutive days (1-4) with CUP randomly assigned to either leg on day one. Single foot balance was obtained with a sway index (SI) on the Biodex Balance System with unilateral trials for 20 seconds and 10 sec recovery repeated twice. Each test consisted of two measures of unilateral passive hip range of motion (degrees) obtained by goniometer with the subject in the prone (hip extension [HE]) and supine (straight leg raise test of hamstring [HF]) positions. Unilateral hamstring/quadriceps muscle power (MP) testing was conducted with a Biodex Isokinetic dynamometer (Watts = W) including five repetitions @ 60o/sec warm-up and 10 maximal repetitions at 120o/sec for the trial. CUP required the application of 6 plastic cups applied at -14 PSI bilaterally for 10 minutes at 30 mm lateral of the vertical midline of the posterior thigh above the hamstring muscle group. RESULTS: Statistical analysis by ANOVA (p<.05) with repeated measures revealed no significant difference among matched variables including: SI: .89, .99, .74, & .86 and 1.07, .78, .84 & 1.011; HE(degrees): 13.4, 14.3, 13.6, & 13.3, and 12.7, 14, 13.8 & 13.6; HF(degrees): 66.6, 62, 61, & 62.4 and 65.1, 62, 61, & 62; MP(W): 94, 53.4, 68.7, & 61.2 and 82.1, 40, 66.3, & 65.9 for CUP and No CUP treatments on days 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. CONCLUSION: The application of cupping therapy on four consecutive days with six treatment cups applied for ten minutes at a modest negative pressure provided no alteration in balance, flexibility or muscular power compared to no treatment over four days. The efficacy of cupping for enhancement of performance related measures is not supported by this study." @default.
