Service

Hijama, commonly known as Wet Cupping — and historically referred to as bloodletting cupping — is a traditional therapy that has been practiced for centuries in various cultures around the world.
The treatment involves placing specialized cups on selected areas of the body to create gentle suction. In traditional Wet Cupping (bloodletting), small superficial skin incisions are made so that a small, controlled amount of blood can be drawn following the suction process.
Many people choose Hijama (bloodletting) as part of their wellness routine and for support with concerns such as muscle tension and pain, headaches, fatigue and low energy, stress, and overall circulation and recovery.
At Relief Plus Wellness, treatments are performed in a professional clinical setting using strict hygiene protocols and single-use materials where appropriate.
At Relief Plus Wellness, patient comfort, safety, professionalism, and cleanliness are our priorities. Before treatment, your practitioner will discuss your wellness goals, relevant health history, any questions or concerns, and whether Hijama is appropriate for your circumstances.
Every treatment plan is individualized based on the patient's needs and preferences.
