Benefits of Hijama
Hijama has more positive effects than the medical benefits of donating blood. There are very serious differences between the blood taken from the vein (venous blood) and the blood taken subcutaneously in the cupping process. Practices have shown that biochemical parameters (urea, uric acid, total cholesterol, and triglyceride) and heavy metals (mercury, lead, aluminum, arsenic) are significantly higher in Hijama blood samples when blood samples taken during the Hijama procedure are compared with the blood samples taken from the vein. This practice helps us to better understand the hadith of the Prophet (S.A.V) “The best way to get blood drawn is Hijama”.
By removing the toxic substances accumulated under the skin at the end of the capillaries with Hijama, very important detoxification is made and possible future diseases are prevented. Therefore, Hijama is one of the most important treatment methods of preventive medicine.
From this point of view, it is highly recommended for every healthy person to have Hijama treatment at least 2 times a year (spring-autumn) in order to maintain their well-being and to protect themselves from diseases. Those who have regular Hijama treatment say that the risk of colds and flu in winter is reduced and their body resistance is much better.
Effects of Hijama Treatment
- Pain relief effect: It is one of the first benefits of hijama. The mechanism of this effect, which is observed simultaneously with the initiation of treatment, is as follows:
- The pain perception threshold is increased.
- The blood supply of cells and tissues is increased.
- It releases natural painkillers secreted from the brain and other cells of the nervous system through nervous stimulation.
- In a sense, it can reduce the perception of pain by vaccination against pain.
- Calming and relaxing effect: There are various substances secreted by the nervous system in the formation of this effect. It shows positive effects with endorphins, happiness hormones serotonin, dopamine.
- Effects on the immune system: There is no doubt that acupuncture and Hijama strengthen this system. This effect is achieved by increasing the white blood cells (antibodies) and immunoglobulins that protect against diseases. In this way, natural immunity is provided especially against various infections. It is possible to use it successfully in many diseases, including anemia, by activating the blood-forming system.
- Positive effects on muscles and joints: Thanks to the energy balance and healthy energy flow provided by acupuncture and Hijama, a significant increase in vitality and vigor is noticeable from the very beginning. The positive contributions it creates in the muscles and joints both increase the motor power of the muscles and prevent conditions such as muscle wasting and weakness. With the effect of natural painkillers and anti-inflammatory substances in the joints, rejuvenation and increased resistance are observed. Despite the passage of months in stroke patients, the treatment results can be positive and satisfying. Due to these effects, the treatment period for fractures, sprains, injuries, and bruises is shortened.
