Skin Any topical stimulus destined to influence and manipulate internal or external organs must start at the skin level. The skin is our largest organ, containing fluid, blood, blood vessels, connective tissue, muscles and a rich nerve supply. Our body’s first direct contact with the outside world is through the skin.

cupping therapy  in the Middle East and the Muslim World Cupping is known as ‘Hajama’ in the Arabic world which translates ‘to restore to basic size’ or ‘to diminish in volume’. The Prophet Muhammed PBUH is reported to have been a user and advocate of cupping therapy. It has been reported that the Prophet PBUH said: Cupping and puncturing the veins are your best remedies. The author of Al-Qunun , Ibn Sina, said: ‘cupping is not preferred in the beginning nor the end of the month. It is preferred in the middle of the month when the substances (of the constitution or the condition) accumulate and become agitated.

Cupping in the Western World and the Middle East The ancient Egyptians were the first to use cupping therapy. The oldest medical text book, written in approximately 1550 BC, in Egypt, describes bleeding by cupping used to ‘remove the foreign matter from the body’. Hippocrates and Galen were also great advocates of cupping. In the early days the technique was used solely for bleeding purposes. There were two schools of thought as far as disease was concerned: a) starve the source of the sickness of the body b) bleed to drain it away Among the Egyptians and various nations, cupping appears to have been considered a remedy for almost every type of disease as well as an important means of preserving life.

What is Cupping? Cupping is one of the oldest and most effective methods of releasing toxins from the body’s tissues and organs. Other terms for cupping are: fire cupping, body vacuuming, and the horn method. Cupping is the practice of applying a partial vacuum by means of heat or suction in one or several bellshaped vessels (suction cups) to parts of the skin. This causes the tissues beneath the cup to be drawn up and swell increasing blood flow to the affected area. This enhanced blood flow under the cup draws impurities and toxins away from the nearby tissues and organs towards the surface for elimination. The time the suction cups are left in place varies according to the patient’s age and physical constitution, and the medical disorder being treated. Cupping is a safe, non-invasive and inexpensive technique. It is used to alleviate the pain and discomfort arising from disorders of the lungs and other internal organs, muscle spasms, joint pains, and numerous other c...
