Cupping is a form of alternative medecine used and recommended by the prophet Sallallahu'alaihiwassalam
it consist of basically gathering blood in a certain area through creating a vacuum in a cup then cutting through the top of the skin (i think they call it epidermis) to remove the blood gathered there. its not blood from veins its just the blood that gathers under the skin.
