Certified Hijama Therapy:The Prophetic Sunnah Cupping Course

Sunnah Hijama Cupping - Course OverviewHistory of Hijama TherapyHijama, meaning "suction" or "drawing out," is an ancient healing practice with roots going back over 5000 years. It has been documented in Chinese, Egyptian, and Greek medical traditions and was later perfected in Islamic medicine as a Prophetic healing method. Early cupping used animal horns to extract toxins, evolving to bamboo, glass, and now modern suction cups.

How Does Hijama Work. Hijama therapy involves controlled suction and bloodletting to remove stagnant blood, detoxify the body, and restore balance. The process follows three key steps:Cup Placement: Cups are applied to specific points based on pain areas and acupuncture meridians.

Suction Therapy: The vacuum effect draws toxins and increases blood flow, aiding circulation and cell regeneration. Bloodletting (Wet Cupping Only): Small, superficial incisions are made before reapplying the cups to extract stagnant blood and toxins. Types of Cupping TherapyThere are different techniques in Hijama, each serving a unique purpose:Dry Cupping: Suction-only therapy that stimulates blood flow without cutting the skin.

Wet Cupping (Sunnah Hijama): Suction is followed by light incisions to remove toxins and stagnant blood. Moving Cupping: Oil is applied to the skin, and cups are glided over muscles to release tension. Air Cupping: Uses a handheld pump instead of fire to create suction, a modern alternative to traditional fire cupping.
