Man Airs Dismay to Spa After Suffering Second-Degree Burn During ‘Ventosa’ Session
A disappointed man has expressed his disappointment after suffering a second-degree burn during a “non-traditional ventosa” procedure.
The guy named Mark Joseph Castillo has expressed his frustrations to a spa after he suffered a second-degree burn during a ventosa procedure. The latter revealed that he is a returning customer due to the spa’s good service.
Castillo decided to undergo ‘ventosa’ procedure as a form of relaxation. The staff offered a “non-traditional” ventosa. However, the customer felt pain during the process and found blisters on his back.
The spa employees could not give him a specific reason why did he suffer burns during ventosa session. He immediately filed a blotter report to the police authorities and barangay.
According to the medico-legal, the victim suffered second-degree burns but decided not to file a case against the establishment. Castillo did not ask for compensation regarding the incident but urged the spa to retrain the workers.
“Dapat maisaayos nila yung mga serbisyo nila, going forward, ako po ay hindi po tumanggap ng kahit anong medical or financial assistance from them, hindi ko na rin itutuloy yung reklamo ko sa kanila basta maisaayos lang nila ang serbisyo nila,” Castillo said.
The spa has yet to release a statement regarding the incident.
The social media users expressed their reactions to the post:
What is Ventosa or Cupping?
It is a form of alternative therapy in which suction is produced on the skin by inserting cups there. It is believed that this suction will enhance the body’s energy flow and promote healing.
