From the reviews

I came here for hijama (cupping therapy) and left feeling like a brand new person. The whole experience was professional, clean, and deeply healing. As a Muslim, it means a lot to have this Sunnah practice done properly and with care.

★★★★★ — Tony, Aug 2025

Thank you, Allah! My second experience doing hijama with Br. Imran was quite amazing, with the Sunnah way being followed as closely is possible before, during, and after the process. It was a fantastic experience.

★★★★★ — Gbouti, Feb 2025

Imran was highly professional and knowledgeable. He explained the procedure thoroughly before starting and answered all my questions patiently. His calming demeanor helped ease any initial anxiety or concerns I had. I highly recommend Bay Area Hijama & Wet Cupping to anyone considering cupping therapy.

★★★★★ — Imraan, Jul 2024

Imraan did an amazing job. He was very clean, hygienic and spiritual. I highly recommend him. I went to him on Friday and I did about 15 cups altogether in my body. And I felt healed already. I will definitely go back again.

Booking hijama (wet cupping) at Bay Area Hijama & Wet Cupping

Bay Area Hijama & Wet Cupping comes up as a provider that offers hijama — wet cupping, where the skin is lightly punctured after suction so a small amount of blood is drawn. If you're booking hijama specifically, a few things are worth asking before you go. First, sterility is everything — a reputable practitioner uses a fresh, single-use kit (new blades and cups) for every client and follows clean, gloved technique. It's completely fair to ask how they handle this. Second, many people booking hijama want a same-gender practitioner — ask whether that can be arranged. Third, ask about aftercare and whether they observe particular days if that matters to you.

What to expect from your first cupping session

New to cupping? Here's the short version. What happens: the practitioner places cups on the skin — most often the back, shoulders, or legs — and creates suction (with a pump, or briefly with a flame for fire cupping). Cups either stay put for a few minutes (dry cupping) or are glided over oiled skin (massage cupping). A session is usually 15–45 minutes, often added to a massage or acupuncture visit. The marks: cupping leaves round, bruise-like circles that are normal and usually fade in a few days to a couple of weeks — they're discoloration from the suction, not an injury, and shouldn't really hurt. What to wear: comfortable clothing that gives access to the area being treated. Afterward: drink water, keep the area warm, and skip intense sun or a hot sauna right after.

Cupping isn't for everyone — if you're on blood thinners, pregnant, or have a skin condition or bleeding disorder, check with your doctor first, and always tell your practitioner about health concerns before a session. This page is directory information, not medical advice.
