Hijama, also known as cupping therapy, has been
practiced for centuries across various cultures. Its
roots can be traced back to ancient Egypt, China,
and the Middle East. In Islamic tradition, the
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)
endorsed and practiced Hijama, emphasizing its
therapeutic benefits. Today, it remains a popular
form of alternative medicine, valued for its ability
to alleviate pain, improve circulation, and
detoxify the body.
