Kang Zhu's cupping appliance, which is developed and manufactured by Beijing Kangda Experimental Factory, has managed to combine the advantages of traditional cups into their new product. The cups are transparent so that any changes in the skin or bleeding within the cup are easily viewable, and the duration of cupping can also be easily controlled by the user.

The cupping appliance, which is extremely durable and almost unbreakable, is convenient and safe to use, and may be utilized by hospitals, as well as families
