What is Cupping or Hijama?
Therapy with a history
Cupping (Hijama) is an ancient therapeutic practice with roots tracing back over 2,000 years. It originated across Egyptian, Chinese, and Middle Eastern traditions and has been refined over centuries to promote physical recovery and rejuvenation.
At The Body Mech, cupping involves the use of specially designed suction cups placed on targeted areas of the body. The gentle suction lifts and separates layers of tissue, improving blood circulation, reducing muscle tension, and flushing out toxins. There are two main forms of cupping therapy:
* Dry cupping focuses on stimulating blood flow and relaxation.
* Wet cupping (Hijama) combines suction with controlled blood extraction, helping to remove stagnation, metabolic waste, and impurities.
This technique is trusted by athletes, professionals, and clients seeking natural pain relief, improved recovery, and enhanced vitality.
Benefits of Cupping/ hijama
Our tailored cupping therapy is designed to deliver measurable results, supporting both short-term recovery and long-term wellness.

Detoxification
Wet cupping (Hijama) assists in the removal of toxins and stagnant blood, promoting a cleaner internal system and improved organ function.
Stress Relief and Relaxation
By easing muscular tightness, cupping promotes deep relaxation, reduces stress, and improves sleep quality.
Boosted Immune System
Cupping supports the lymphatic system, improving the body’s natural defences and resilience to everyday stress.
Enhanced Energy and Well-Being
Clients often report a sense of renewal and balance following treatment, with increased vitality and mental clarity.
