A Response to Growing Demand
Faced with a public increasingly concerned with benefiting from care that promotes a holistic approach to the human person, hijama - or cupping therapy - establishes itself as a natural, ancestral, and effective therapeutic method.
Main Benefits of Hijama
Hijama is used to:
- Relieve muscular, joint, and chronic pain
- Promote relaxation and reduce stress
- Cleanse the body by eliminating toxins
- Rebalance biological functions
- Strengthen immune defenses
- Stimulate natural hormone production
How Does It Work?
Hijama consists of applying cups to specific areas of the body. Depending on the method used (dry or wet), it may include light incisions to extract stagnant blood, thus promoting:
- Better blood and lymphatic circulation
- Deep detoxification
- Stimulation of the parasympathetic nervous system, conducive to relaxation
Frequent Indications
Hijama is commonly used for treating:
- Headaches, migraines
- Back and joint pain
- Chronic fatigue
- Hormonal disorders
- Stress and sleep disorders
- Menstrual cycle support or menopause management
Contraindications
Hijama is not recommended for:
- Children under 3 years old
- Pregnant women (depending on the case)
- People on anticoagulants or with pacemakers
- Patients during acute phases of chronic disease
- People with malignant tumors
