Cupping Therapy (Dry / Gliding /Wet (Hijama)
Detoxification and Purging Stagnant Blood: This is the primary theory. It's believed that poor circulation, stress, and toxins can cause blood and other fluids to stagnate in specific areas, leading to pain and illness. Hijama directly removes this old, deoxygenated blood, stimulating the body to produce fresh, oxygen-rich blood.
Cupping Therapy (Hijama) has many benefits
The term Hijama (from the Arabic word "hajm" meaning "to suck") or Wet Cupping, is a traditional therapy that involves creating a mild suction on the skin using cups and then making tiny, superficial incisions to draw out stagnant, "non-vital" blood and other harmful toxins from the body.
Detoxification and Purging Stagnant Blood
It's believed that poor circulation, stress, and toxins can cause blood and other fluids to stagnate in specific areas, leading to pain and illness. Hijama directly removes this old, deoxygenated blood, stimulating the body to produce fresh, oxygen-rich blood.
Enhanced Circulation and Oxygenation
The suction dramatically increases blood flow to the skin's surface and the underlying muscles. This "flushes" the area with fresh blood, delivering oxygen and nutrients while removing metabolic waste, which promotes healing and reduces pain.
Immune System Modulation
The controlled, minor trauma of the incisions triggers the body's immune and healing response. It stimulates the production of new white blood cells and activates complement pathways, essentially giving your immune system a "tune-up."
Neurological and Pain Gate Theory
The strong suction stimulates nerve endings in the skin. This stimulus can interfere with or "close the gate" on pain signals traveling to the brain, providing immediate relief from chronic pain conditions.
Wet Cupping Enhance Lymph Flow
Wet cupping enhances the lymphatic system by using suction to stimulate lymph flow, help clear blockages, and facilitate the removal of metabolic waste, toxins, and excess fluids from body tissues.
Release of Fascia and Connective Tissue
The suction can help release tension and adhesions in the fascia (the connective tissue that surrounds your muscles), improving flexibility and reducing muscle stiffness.
The regulation of the hormonal system through Hijama can manifest in several key areas
· Improved Reproductive Health:
· Fertility Support: By balancing reproductive hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, FSH, LH), Hijama can help create a more optimal environment for conception in both men and women.
· Management of PCOS & PMS: It can help alleviate symptoms like irregular periods, painful cramps, mood swings, and acne by addressing the underlying hormonal imbalances.
· Easing Menopausal Symptoms: Many women report a reduction in hot flashes, night sweats, and mood disturbances after Hijama, likely due to its regulatory effect on the adrenal glands (which produce precursors to estrogen after menopause).
· Thyroid Function Support:
· The thyroid gland is highly sensitive to stress and inflammation. By reducing systemic stress and inflammation, Hijama can create a better environment for thyroid hormone production and conversion (from T4 to the active T3).
· Enhanced Metabolism and Energy:
· Balanced thyroid and adrenal hormones are essential for a healthy metabolism. When these are optimized, you may experience improved energy levels, better temperature regulation, and more stable weight.
· Better Sleep Cycles:
· The sleep-wake cycle is governed by hormones like melatonin and cortisol. By regulating cortisol, Hijama can help restore a natural circadian rhythm, leading to deeper, more restorative sleep.
Which One Should You Choose?
Dry Cupping: A localized massage-like therapy. It creates suction to pull blood and other fluids to the surface of the skin, but no blood is drawn. Think of it as a deep-tissue massage in reverse.
Wet Cupping (Hijama): A minor surgical procedure and detoxification therapy. It involves the same initial suction as dry cupping, but is followed by tiny, superficial incisions to draw out a small amount of "stagnant" blood.

What Type of Cupping is Best for You?
Both fall under the umbrella of "cupping therapy," Dry Cupping and Wet Cupping (Hijama) are fundamentally different procedures with distinct mechanisms, purposes, and outcomes.
Choose Dry If
· You are seeking relief from localized muscle tension or pain (e.g., a tight shoulder, sore back). · You want to improve flexibility and range of motion. · You are looking for a deep relaxation therapy similar to a massage. · You are new to cupping or are uncomfortable with the idea of blood being drawn.
Dry Cupping
Coose Wet (Hijama) If
· Your goal is systemic detoxification and purifying the blood. · You are dealing with chronic conditions believed to be caused by "toxins" or "stagnation" (e.g., chronic fatigue, persistent migraines, certain skin conditions). · You want a stronger immune system boost. · You are following the Sunnah (tradition) of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) for specific spiritual and physical benefits.
Other Benefits of Cupping
Stress Reduction and the HPA Axis: · The Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis is your body's central stress response system. Chronic stress keeps this axis overactive, leading to elevated levels of the stress hormone cortisol.
Wet Cupping (Hijama)
Other Benefits of Hijama
· High cortisol disrupts nearly all other hormonal functions, including thyroid hormones, reproductive hormones, and growth hormone. · Hijama's profound relaxing effect on the nervous system helps to down-regulate the HPA axis, lowering cortisol levels. This allows the entire endocrine system to "reset" and function more harmoniously.

Moving / Gliding Cupping
If you're worried about skin cut marks then this type of cupping is the best for you. It's a form of cupping that is often compared to a deep tissue massage and it is done using a plunger moving with a negative pressure that help to improve circulation, relieve pain, and increase range of motion by working over larger areas of the body
