What is Hijama?
Hijama is a therapeutic treatment that combines gentle suction with small, superficial skin incisions. The cups create negative pressure, encouraging circulation, while the controlled removal of a small amount of stagnant blood is believed to support detoxification and improve overall wellbeing.Unlike many conventional treatments, Hijama focuses on stimulating the body’s own natural healing mechanisms.
