Michael Phelps has been using a type of alternative medicine called cupping. Various methods are used to suction a cup to the body, and the cup pulls circles of flesh up into it. The method is said to remove toxins and tension from the body, however, it leaves large hickey type bruises that can last for a few weeks.
