“In traditional African medicine, a form of cupping therapy was practiced long before modern glass or silicone cups were introduced. Instead of using cups, healers used hollowed-out buffalo horns. These horns were heated and then placed on the skin to create suction, drawing out what was believed to be toxins or bad energy from the body. This method not only reflects the deep medicinal knowledge of ancient African cultures but also highlights how natural materials were skillfully adapted for healing purposes.”

I’d never heard of cupping, but it’s an ancient remedy for ailments similar to acupuncture. The idea of using cattle horns is great. Fire ’em up and suction out the bad vibes.
