Study on the Effect of Wet Cupping Therapy on Oxidative Stres Index and Total Antioxidant Capacity Levels: A Pilot Study
Purpose: Wet cupping treatment is one of the oldest known methods of treatment. Recently,
some studies have shown that wet cupping therapy removes oxidants and reduces oxidative
stres. However, these studies are limited. The aim of this study is to investigate the
effectiveness of wet cupping treatment on oxidant-anti oxidant system. Materials And

Purpose
Wet cupping treatment is one of the oldest known methods of treatment.Recently, some studies have shown that wet cupping therapy removes oxidants and reduces oxidative stres.However, these studies are limited.The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of wet cupping treatment on oxidant-anti oxidant system.
Materials And Methods
Our study consisted of 26 patients. Right before the wet cupping treatment, venous blood samples were collected. During the procedure, samples were collected from the cup blood. Right after the wet cupping treatment venous blood samples were collected again. On the 14th day, the participants were called and venous blood samples were collected. In all of these samples, total oxidant level (TOS), oxidative stress index (OSI) and total antioxidant level (TAS) levels were studied and compared.
Results
Total anti-oxidant level, total oxidant level and oxidative stress index levels in cup blood were higher than all venous blood samples. While there was no significant change in TAS and TOS levels after the application, oxidative stress index levels decreased significantly.
Conclusions
Wet cupping therapy reduced the oxidative stress index. Key Words:Wet Cupping Treatment, Oxidative Stress Index Total Oxidant Level and Total Anti-Oxidant Level
