Overview

What is Fire Cupping Therapy?

Fire cupping is a traditional therapy in which glass cups are briefly warmed with a flame and placed on the skin, creating gentle suction as they cool. The cups are usually arranged across the back and left in place for a short period, many people describe the sensation as a firm, warming pull followed by deep relaxation.

Fire cupping vs. Hijama: Chironova offers two distinct cupping services. Fire Cupping Therapy (this service, KSh 4,000) is dry cupping, suction only. Blood Cupping / Hijama (KSh 1,000 per cup) is wet cupping, which involves small superficial skin incisions. If you are unsure which is right for you, speak to the team before booking.
