⚠️Warning next picture graphic⚠️ A licensed acupuncturist has years of training using fire cupping before they practice professionally. The second photo is from a real case where a patient went to someone who was only licensed in massage therapy (they don’t get fire cupping training in school) and used fire cupping on the client. She suffered from severe 2nd degree burns that can likely lead to scarring. The first picture is what fire cupping done properly would result as, with amazing health benefits. Always go to a licensed acupuncturist for this treatment.

Los delfines pueden saber cuándo una mujer está embarazada simplemente por las ondas magnéticas del bebé. Estos animales tienen varias peculiaridades, ya sea en la forma en que se comunican o en cómo tienen un apetito sexual insaciable. Pero cuando conocen a mujeres embarazadas, revelan un rasgo poco conocido. Cuando entran en contacto con mujeres embarazadas, nadan hacia ellas y emiten sonidos de ecolocalización desesperadamente cerca de su vientre. La ecolocalización es un sistema mediante el cual los delfines emiten sonidos y escuchan su eco, el mismo principio que el ultrasonido, para identificar formas a su alrededor. Los estudiosos creen que son capaces de visualizar algún tipo de imagen del bebé, pudiendo incluso ver el embarazo de delfines hembra.
