Hijama /Cupping therapy is used as a complementary approach for managing symptoms of anxiety and depression by promoting deep relaxation, improving blood flow, and reducing muscle tension.
How does cupping therapy work?
Promotes Relaxation
The suction and resulting sensation can activate the parasympathetic nervous system, which helps lower heart rate and induce a sense of calm and deep muscle relaxation.
Reduces Stress Hormones
Some research suggests cupping may help lower cortisol levels (the "stress hormone"), which can contribute to feelings of anxiety and sadness.
Releases Endorphins
The therapy is thought to trigger the release of endorphins and neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin, which are natural mood enhancers.
Improves Sleep Quality
Anxiety and depression often involve sleep disturbances. By promoting relaxation and reducing muscle tension, cupping therapy can improve sleep quality, which in turn benefits mental clarity and emotional balance.
Enhances Circulation and Detoxification
Improved blood flow delivers more oxygen and nutrients to the brain and body cells, while the detoxification process helps remove waste that may contribute to brain fog and fatigue.
Safety and Practitioner Expertise: Cupping is generally considered safe when performed by a trained and qualified practitioner.
