A stroke is a serious life-threatening medical condition that happens when the blood supply to part of the brain is cut off.
Strokes are a medical emergency and urgent treatment is essential.
Like all organs, the brain needs oxygen and nutrients provided by blood to function properly.
If the supply of blood is restricted or stopped, brain cells begin to die. This can lead to brain injury, stroke, disability or death.
There are 2 main causes of stroke.
• ischaemic – where the blood supply is stopped because of a blood clot, accounting for 85% of all cases
• haemorrhagic – where a weakened blood vessel supplying the brain bursts
Certain health conditions increase the risk of having a stroke, for example high blood pressure, high cholesterol, stress,smoking ,irregular heart beats and diabetes etc
Hijama can be classified as an intervention method to AVOID and AID in the rehabilitation of stroke patients .
WE MAY ASK HOW???
Cupping directly stimulates organs beneath, relieves brain swelling and eliminates the accumulation of fluids and toxins post stroke,allowing restored supply of fresh circulating blood to the affected areas, which in turn relieves congestion and stagnation.
Recovering from a stroke can take a long time. A person affected by stroke might need special care to help them with his/her daily activities.
At Shiffa Wellness and Hijamah Centre we do not use cupping only as an isolated therapy for post stroke disability.
We adopt a Holistic approach by integrating Western Medicine alongside Complementry systems such as energy/meridian pathways, lifestyle,diet,exercise and emotional wellbeing for restoration of the patients overall health.
