Hijama (Cupping Therapy)

Traditional Practices, Professional Care, and Your Well-Being

At Turkish Hospital, our Hijama (Cupping Therapy) Department is dedicated to providing professional cupping therapy services that combine traditional practices with modern healthcare standards.

We are committed to providing personalized care, ensuring that every patient receives appropriate attention based on their individual needs, medical history, health status, and comfort.

Hijama, also known as cupping therapy, is a traditional practice that involves placing specially designed cups on selected areas of the body to create controlled suction.

Wet cupping additionally involves superficial skin incisions and is performed by trained healthcare professionals using sterile, single-use instruments and appropriate infection prevention and control measures.
