Wet Cupping (Hijama)

Wet cupping, or Hijama, is a traditional therapy where small, sterile cups are placed on the skin to create suction, drawing blood to the surface. A small incision is then made to allow a controlled amount of blood to be released, believed to help remove toxins, improve circulation, and promote healing. The practice is rooted in traditional medicine systems like Islamic and Chinese medicine and is often used to address pain, inflammation, and overall wellness. It is generally performed by trained practitioners to ensure safety and hygiene.
