Hijama, also commonly known as ‘Cupping’ is a prophetic method
of curing and preventing disease and illnesses. Hijama, in Arabic is derived from ‘hajm’ which mean ‘sucking’. Al-Hajjaam means the cupper, hijaamah is the profession of cupping, and the word
‘mihjam’ is used to describe the vessel in which the blood is collected and the lancet used by the cupper. Hijama is also commonly known as ‘Cupping’. Hijama refers to the extraction of
blood from key point in the body by the mean of cupping using a suitable vessel or whatever modern equipment serves the same purpose.
Historically, money was offered to healers out of respect, not
by demand. Inconspicuously, money was concealed in an envelope or a gift was presented to the healer after the procedure was performed - with full manners and respect and with an intention to provide
a gift.
Hijama is something done to revive the Sunnah and means of
bringing cure to people that seek treatment through Sunnah remedy. Charging high prices puts the patients off from being cupped. And not compensating puts off the cupping therapists from
offering cupping. This also helps recover the cost that goes in expensive cupping supplies.
Standard Hijama is great for those that want to get Hijama for
general well being and Sunnah Hijama points. Standard Hijama may help with many different conditions, including anxiety, lethargic, fatigue, detoxification of liver, mind clarity
