You bring up cupping. I've seen things about wet cupping. Basically they make small cuts in back then put cups on and it sucks out "bad blood". Is it bad I wanna try this?

Not to be mean but are you a moron?
Aside for minor differences in the body where the blood is coming from/going, there is no difference.
Outside of blood that can sickle, or leukemia, or viral infected blood, what do you mean bad blood?
No, bleeding you does not help. Leeching you, outside of a few select times for easing congestion in skin flaps and the such will not help.
Why would you think one could remove bad blood?

traditional cupping involves jars similar to Gerber baby food jars but more round on the bottom with a rounded lipped open side that are heated and then placed on the back. as they cool they create a vacuum and suck the skin up into the jar slightly. It is supposed to remove the bad spirits.
I suppose that making a small laceration in the skin prior to placing the cup is a variation of the process.
