A Note for Women

Thoughtful timing & care

During pregnancy

We do not perform wet cupping during pregnancy. Please consult your physician — we'd be glad to welcome you after your recovery.

Around your cycle

We'll simply help you schedule your appointment around your menstrual cycle — just let us know when you book.

After childbirth

Many sisters choose hijama once they've recovered (commonly after about forty days). We'll guide you gently on the right timing.

A cherished Sunnah

Cupping is part of the prophetic tradition. In authentic narrations (Sahih al-Bukhari & Muslim), the Prophet ﷺ described cupping as among the best of remedies. Many sisters treasure hijama as a Sunnah practice for body and soul.
