The former Bigg Boss and Roadies runner-up Bani J has always been an inspiration to many with her workout videos and her photos, in which she is seen flaunting her gym-toned body, but her latest Instagram post is something that may make you cringe.
On Thursday, Bani took to her Instagram page to post a picture of herself undergoing the Chinese cupping therapy with a message. She wrote, “PS: this Chinese cupping therapy is Bomb. Hurts like hell, and you're left with these amazing marks. But ayy.. scar tissue always stronger than regular tissue right? Fun science fact: The spots that are redder than others are where there were bigger deeper knots/ stress/ tension. The skin gets red because of the increase in blood flood, relieving of the pressure built up inside and helps get rid of toxins. Now, I need a nap. Gday!”
For those who do not know this, cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine to create suction on the skin. Its health benefits include relief from pain inflammation and increase in blood flow.
