What Is Wet Cupping?
Wet cupping, also known as Hijama, is a therapeutic practice that involves creating a mild suction on the skin, followed by controlled medicinal bleeding. Unlike dry cupping, wet cupping extracts impurities and invigorates the body’s natural healing processes. Rooted in ancient wisdom, this therapy is meticulously practiced at Proactive Health to promote balance, vitality, and renewal.

Most people experience minimal discomfort during wet cupping. The sensation can be compared to a light pinch or suction. The procedure is generally well-tolerated. Our gentle technique and professional care minimize discomfort, making the procedure relaxing for most clients.
