Is cupping massage a good alternative treatments for blood pressure ? is it safe and healthy ?

No: it is East West integrative medicine. You still need to take your blood pressure medication. The cupping massage and acupuncture will be your adjunctive therapy. It is important to have your blood pressure normal to prevent potential serious complications.
