Treatment for Cluster Headache
Cupping therapy for Cluster Headache likely modulates pain perception through local neurogenic inflammation and enhanced blood flow, potentially triggering the release of endogenous opioids and reducing sympathetic nervous system activity. The mechanical stimulation of subcutaneous tissues may activate descending pain inhibitory pathways and promote parasympathetic responses, which could help mitigate the intense trigeminal-autonomic pain characteristic of Cluster Headaches.
