ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates generally to a cupping and moxibustion device for assisting traditional East-Asian medicine. In more detail, an inner wall is provided in the lower portion of a body so that the lower portion is divided into a moxibustion part located in the inner part of the lower portion and a cupping part located in the outer part of the lower portion, a moxa pot is held above the moxibustion part, thus carrying out moxibustion, and an air discharge hole is formed on the outer wall of the body, an opening and closing unit is fitted into the air discharge hole, and air is discharged from the cupping part to the outside of the device to depressurize the cupping part, thus carrying out cupping.In this case, an air suction hole is formed on a lid provided on the upper end of the body, an air pump is connected to the air suction hole, and air is supplied to allow moxa contained in the moxa pot to be smoothly combusted. Furthermore, a smoke discharge hole is formed on the side of the body and, thus, smoke generated at the time of combusting the moxa is discharged to the outside of the body.
