Hijama (Wet Cupping) in Brooklyn, NY
At Soul Detox® in Brooklyn, we specialize in Wet Cupping, also known as Hijama—an ancient therapeutic practice that removes toxins, enhances circulation, and supports both physical and spiritual healing.
Whether you’re seeking relief from chronic pain, spiritual imbalance, or simple fatigue, our personalized Hijama sessions are designed to help you reset, inside and out.
What is Hijama?
Hijama (Wet Cupping) is a holistic healing method that involves applying suction cups to the skin, then making small incisions to draw out stagnant blood, toxins, and negative energy.
Practiced for thousands of years across cultures—from ancient China to the Islamic world—Hijama is now recognized as a safe, powerful therapy for detox and restoration.
At Soul Detox®, we carry this tradition forward in a clean, modern setting. Our trained practitioners guide each session with care, precision, and spiritual integrity.
Benefits of Wet Cupping
Hijama isn’t just physical—it’s energetic. Clients come to us for help with everything from muscle stiffness to spiritual afflictions. Common benefits include:
Deep Detoxification: Flushes toxins and stagnant blood from the body
Pain Relief: Eases chronic pain, tight muscles, and inflammation
Improved Circulation: Boosts blood flow and oxygen delivery
Spiritual Clearing: Supports release of negative energy, including Sihr (black magic), Ayn (evil eye), and Hasad (envy)
Immune Support: Strengthens natural defenses by removing energetic and physical blockages
Many clients report feeling lighter, clearer, and more energized—physically and emotionally—within hours of their session.
