Overview

What is Blood Cupping (Hijama)?

Hijama, also known as wet cupping or blood cupping, is a traditional practice in which cups create suction on the skin, followed by small, superficial incisions and a second application of cups. It is a service many clients seek out specifically, and one of the most requested therapies at Chironova.

Because Hijama involves minor skin incisions, Chironova treats it with particular care: sterile, single-use equipment, professional hygiene standards, and a conversation before every session so you know exactly what to expect. The service is priced simply. KSh 1,000 per cup, so the session cost depends on how many cups are used.

Who may be interested

  • Clients who specifically seek Hijama as a traditional wellness practice
  • People who value sterile, professional handling of a skin-involving therapy
  • First-timers who want clear guidance and an unhurried consultation
