Cupping is another supplementary therapy technique. This study sought to ascertain whether cupping may lower uric acid levels in gout patients in Tunjungharjo, Grobogan. A case study research methodology with a pre-study and pretest-posttest design was employed in this study. The sampling technique that was used was purposive sampling. Four people who met the inclusion criteria were the case study's four subjects high uric acid clients, defined as men >7 mg/dl and women >6 mg/dl. Data collected from uric acid levels before and after cupping intervention. Data analysis is done by presenting facts, then by comparing existing theories and putting them into discussion opinions.
