Jack documented the procedure step by step and shared the videos with his Instagram followers.
He said: "Right, for everyone wondering what I got done yesterday, I went to the cupping clinic. It is mad, I feel amazing today.
"It gets all the bad blood, all the toxins out of your body, look at this next video, look what came out of my swede."
In the videos, the former pen salesman is seen lying face down on a bed with multiple cups attached to back, arms and legs - and he even had one attached to the back of his head.

The therapist even placed one on the back of his head
As the therapist, at the Abdelkader Cupping Clinic in Kennington, South London, pulled one of the cups off the back of his head, he was left shocked with the large amount of blood that gushed out.
Cupping therapy is an ancient traditional practice which consists of a cup being placed onto the skin to create a suction.
There are two cupping methods including dry cupping - a suction-only method, and wet cupping - which involves medicinal bleeding.
Over the past few years, cupping has become extremely popular because of its benefits which include improving an individuals well-being, blood flow, inflammation and it is even said to loosen muscles.

The Celebs Go Dating star decided to opt for the wet cupping procedure - where the therapist made a small incision into the skin, followed by another session of suction to draw blood from the body.
This type of cupping is supposed to remove harmful substances and toxins from the body to promote healing.
"Honestly, I've seen so many good things about it, I was dying to try it and I cant believe the amount of toxins come out of my head.
"I feel like my body's clean, and I'm really ready to go," Jack said.

The health benefits said to result from the bizarre procedure might actually be able to help Jack reach his goal of becoming a professional boxer.
Jack recently revealed he's working towards becoming the next big thing in the ring.
He told iFL TV he has now worked his life around boxing, and wants to turn pro to “feel good” about himself after regaining the “fire” to be a fighter.
He said: “Now I’ve sort of managed to work my life around the boxing, I’ve gone back to it properly, and I do want to turn over, I do wanna turn pro.

“I meant to do it at the age of 18 but circumstances change and I didn’t do it.
“I had gone back to boxing, I had another senior fight at the age of 24, I lost that actually, he was a very good kid actually.
“I was at the wrong weight, but now I’ve just got that fire in my stomach again."
He added: “I wanna be healthy, I wanna be fit, I wanna feel good about myself, and boxing, it’s like a medicine, you just feel good about yourself in every shape and form.”
