What is Hijamah Cupping Therapy ?
Hijama Wet Cupping Therapy is a healing art in its own right and so should be accepted and respected as such. Indeed, it has components of Chinese Acupuncture which also include Wet cupping. The cupping we are referring to are very different in both practice and effect. There are primarily TWO types of Cupping - Blood Cupping and Dry Cupping. Blood Cupping (also referred to as Wet cupping/Hijamah) is defined as the removal of blood from the body. (Hijama is in this category). Dry cupping is the type of Cupping that involves NO removal of blood.

History of Hijamah
Hijamah Cupping Therapy is an Islamic, spiritual, religious practice using natural methods for detox and cleansing through the extraction of toxic blood. It was divinely revealed by God (Allah, The Exalted) and ordained by the Angels to Prophet Mohammad (SAW). It is a Prophetic Medicine and a Sunnah (practiced by Prophet Mohammad (SAW) ) and is a part of Traditional Islamic Medicine which has been practiced globally for centuries. Hijama Wet Cupping is exclusively an Islamic phenomenon spanning many decades, It is a powerful, natural, healing therapy that has carved out its niche over time.
How does Hijamah work ?
Hijamah is a Holistic Detox and Cell Cleansing Procedure using cupping equipment, This Procedure draws a minimal amount of toxic blood to the surface of the skin from the capillaries. The skin coloration created by Cupping is “Ecchymosis”. It is caused by increased blood circulation and vasodilation of the blood vessels under the subcutaneous skin (due to the suction of Cupping).
Hijama should be used as a first solution, as opposed to the last solution after trying all kinds of allopathic medicines, operations, and treatments. Hijama normalizes the body and natural healing methods are safer and less toxic than most allopathic drugs. Allah (The Exalted, the Almighty) has created the body with an innate ability to heal and rejuvenate itself.
