What is Hijama: A Revival in Natural Healing
Hijama therapy – also known as wet cupping – is experiencing a powerful revival across the UK and beyond. Once seen as a niche practice, Hijama is now recognised as one of the fastest-growing holistic health therapies. More Muslims and non-Muslims alike are turning to Hijama cupping as a natural solution for chronic pain, fatigue, migraines, inflammation, infertility, and even mental health issues like anxiety and low mood. With growing public interest and wider acceptance, the demand for trained and certified Hijama practitioners is at an all-time high.
This ancient therapy, rooted in the Prophetic tradition, has now found its place in modern complementary medicine. Whether you refer to it as Hijama cupping, wet cupping therapy, or Prophetic medicine, the therapeutic benefits are now supported by scientific studies, traditional knowledge, and the lived experiences of thousands of clients across the world. As people become disillusioned with overmedication and side effects, many are turning to Hijama as a safe, effective, and sunnah-inspired approach to restoring health.
Enrolling in a certified Hijama course not only empowers you to practise this powerful therapy, but also helps preserve and revive a lost sunnah that was beloved to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Through our comprehensive training programme, you won’t just learn how to do Hijama – you’ll understand the science behind it, its anatomical foundations, the safety protocols, and the spiritual significance that sets it apart from other treatments. It’s a journey of learning, healing, and serving the ummah.
By choosing to learn Hijama now, you’re stepping into a growing field that blends traditional Islamic healing with modern medical understanding. Whether you aim to treat family members, serve your local Muslim community, or build a long-term therapy career, becoming a certified Hijama therapist is both a meaningful and impactful path forward.
Why Learn Hijama? A Journey of Healing, Inside and Out
Learning Hijama is about so much more than acquiring a new skill – it’s about unlocking a sacred tradition of healing rooted in Prophetic medicine. When you study Hijama therapy, you step into the footsteps of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, who not only encouraged but practiced this form of treatment. The blessings of offering Hijama are profound – not just for the physical wellbeing of your clients, but also for your own spiritual and emotional growth. As a qualified Hijama therapist, you become a vessel for relief, restoration, and reward.
Hijama therapy has been proven to relieve back pain, migraines, fatigue, hormonal imbalances, skin issues, and more – but what many don’t realise is the emotional transformation it can bring to the practitioner themselves. When you learn Hijama, you gain a sense of purpose: helping others heal, reviving a sunnah, and watching the immediate impact of your work. Many of our students say they never expected how emotionally fulfilling it would be to ease someone’s pain in a way that is safe, holistic, and guided by Islamic principles.
This is not just a career path – it’s a calling. With our accredited Hijama course, you’ll gain the authentic, ethical knowledge required to practise safely, confidently, and professionally. You’ll be equipped with the theoretical and practical skills needed to become a respected practitioner in your community. Our course is structured to uphold the highest standards, ensuring you not only do Hijama but understand it deeply – from anatomy to technique, ethics to aftercare.
By learning Hijama, you position yourself to serve your family, community, and the wider ummah in a way that is both spiritually rewarding and professionally sustainable. As the demand for Hijama therapists grows, so too does the need for those trained correctly. When you train with us, you’re not just getting certified – you’re becoming part of a growing movement of Muslim therapists bringing Prophetic healing back to the forefront of wellness care.
Who is This Course For? A Hijama Course That Welcomes Everyone
Whether you’re brand new to healthcare or simply passionate about natural healing, this Hijama course for beginners is designed with accessibility in mind. You don’t need a medical degree, prior clinical experience, or even a science background to begin. Our curriculum starts from the ground up – making it perfect for those who want to learn Hijama therapy at their own pace, with clear explanations, step-by-step visuals, and full tutor support. The path to becoming a qualified Hijama practitioner is now open to everyone, not just those in clinical fields.
This course is also ideal for existing health professionals, massage therapists, chiropractors, and holistic health coaches looking to expand their offerings with authentic cupping therapy. If you’ve been searching for a way to incorporate Prophetic medicine into your wellness practice – or reconnect with Islamic healing traditions – then this course offers both the scientific depth and spiritual integrity to do so. We equip you with the skills to provide both therapeutic and cosmetic Hijama, in line with modern standards and Islamic ethics.
Hidayah Health’s Hijama course is Muslim-friendly and gender-conscious. We provide a safe, respectful learning space for both brothers and sisters, with real-life case examples that reflect both male and female perspectives. With modules designed around Islamic etiquette and modesty, we ensure that your journey to becoming a Hijama therapist is aligned with the values of trust, sincerity, and halal professional practice. This makes our training especially unique among other online cupping therapy courses.

With lifetime access, downloadable materials, and CPD accreditation, it’s a smart investment for those who want to earn ethically, help others holistically, and revive forgotten Sunnah in their everyday lives. You bring the passion – we provide the pathway.
What Makes Our Course Different? A Gold Standard in Hijama Education
Our Hijama course is built from the ground up to offer far more than the basics. Students are taken on a rich educational journey that begins with the history and foundations of cupping therapy. You’ll explore how Hijama is rooted in Prophetic medicine, its revival in modern holistic health, and how the practice has evolved in both Eastern and Western medical traditions. These lessons help ground your training in both Islamic tradition and contemporary practice, giving you the confidence to speak about Hijama with credibility and clarity.
Next, we go deep into anatomy and physiology for Hijama practitioners. This includes detailed knowledge of the lymphatic system, circulatory system, musculoskeletal structure, and the nervous system – all essential for safe and effective cupping. Many courses skip this step entirely, but we believe it’s critical for understanding where to place cups, how deep to scarify, and how to avoid areas that could cause harm. This science-backed approach empowers our students to practice responsibly and professionally.
You’ll then move on to learning about pressure points for Hijama, which includes both traditional Sunnah points and targeted muscular locations. We teach muscular trigger point therapy in relation to Hijama – an innovative approach that helps clients experiencing back pain, sciatica, frozen shoulder, migraines, and more. Each point is explained with diagrams, anatomical references, and even palpation tips, ensuring you’re not just memorising points but truly mastering the skill.
One of our most popular modules is on infection prevention and control, which covers clinical hygiene in extraordinary detail. You’ll learn how to safely handle sharps, sterilise surfaces, prevent cross-contamination, and protect both yourself and your clients from risk. Our training includes updated guidance on disposable vs reusable Hijama equipment, personal protective equipment (PPE), surface disinfection protocols, and glove usage standards – all compliant with modern regulations. This makes you a safe and trustworthy practitioner in the eyes of your clients and local authorities.
We also teach the step-by-step Hijama procedure with visual walkthroughs. From preparing your equipment and creating a calm environment to applying the cups, making incisions, and performing aftercare – we break everything down in simple, easy-to-follow stages. Each phase of the process includes safety alerts, critical error visuals, emotional checkpoints for the client, and communication scripts so you always know what to say. This section has proven invaluable for first-time practitioners and seasoned professionals alike.
Finally, we prepare you for life after qualification. Our business guidance modules help you understand how to register your services, advertise ethically, handle client intake forms, and even build a treatment room in your home. We show you how to set prices, market to the Muslim community, and provide value-based therapy that attracts loyal clients. Most importantly – if you pass our course, we will refer clients directly to you in your local area, giving you a head start in building your own Hijama practice.
Benefits of Certification: Start Your Practice with Confidence and Clients
Completing our certified Hijama course unlocks real, practical opportunities – not just knowledge. Once you graduate, you’ll receive a recognised Hijama therapy certificate that’s accepted by leading UK insurance providers and trusted in many international countries. This means you can legally practise wet cupping therapy with confidence, whether you’re setting up a mobile service, working from home, or integrating Hijama into your existing health practice. Our certificate is issued in line with national vocational standards and backed by assessors qualified under CAVA – the UK’s gold standard in adult training and assessment.
But what truly sets our course apart is this: when you pass and qualify with us, we don’t just wish you luck – we send you clients. Any client who contacts our team for a Hijama therapist in your area will be referred directly to you. This means that from the day you graduate, you already have a pathway to income. No cold marketing. No awkward searching. Just real paying clients from a trusted source who knows you’ve been trained to the highest Islamic and clinical standards.
This level of post-certification support is almost unheard of in the holistic health world. Most courses leave students feeling unsure about where to begin. With us, you’ll graduate not just with a Hijama qualification but with a support network that believes in your success. We want your practice to flourish, because when you thrive – so does the revival of Prophetic healing in your community.
You’ll also gain the confidence and credibility to work ethically and professionally. Our course doesn’t just teach the “how” – it explains the “why.” You’ll be trained in everything from informed consent and client safety to Islamic ethics, record-keeping, and business registration. Whether you’re treating friends and family or building a full-time career in Hijama therapy, our certification ensures you do so with trust, care, and legitimacy.
And here’s the best part – with just a handful of client referrals from us, your course fee could already be fully recovered. That’s not marketing hype – it’s a simple reality of the business model. Most of our graduates find that the income from just a handful of new clients easily covers the cost of the training. This makes enrolling in our Hijama certification course not just a spiritual and educational investment, but a financially smart one. You won’t be left chasing clients or unsure how to start – we help you hit the ground running.
And of course, you’re free to build your own Hijama business alongside this. Whether you want to set up a home clinic, offer mobile cupping sessions, or build a wellness brand online, the opportunities are yours to pursue. Our client referral scheme is not a restriction – it’s a bonus. You keep full control of your career and client base, while still benefiting from our active referral pipeline whenever potential clients in your area reach out to us. It’s a win-win situation – one that helps you grow faster, earn sooner, and serve your community more confidently.
🗣️ Ahmed, Certified Hijama Therapist – Birmingham
“I qualified just two months ago and already had six clients referred directly to me through the team. Honestly, I didn’t even have to advertise at first – they handled that. Each referral gave me the confidence and income to get started properly. Now I’m offering mobile Hijama therapy full-time”
🗣️ Anisa, Female Cupping / Facial Cupping Practitioner – Manchester
“As a female therapist, I was worried about finding clients at first. But within days of passing, I was sent my first referral through the course team. I’ve since treated multiple clients locally and even started offering Hijama specifically for fertility and hormonal balance. It’s been great.”
🗣️ Hajera, Holistic Health Coach & Hijama Practitioner – London
“I combined my Hijama certification with my existing wellness business, and the client referrals gave me a massive boost. The fact that I could rely on real paying clients straight away meant my course paid for itself. It’s a good model which I didn’t come across anywhere else, supportive and empowering.”
Flexible and Student-Friendly Learning
Our Hijama course has been expertly designed with flexibility in mind, making it ideal for busy professionals, parents, or anyone looking to fit learning around their schedule. With self-paced modules, you can study at your own rhythm – no deadlines, no pressure. Whether you’re at home, in your clinic, or on the go, you’ll have access to our rich online platform built exclusively for modern Hijama therapy education.

You’ll have unlimited access to the course materials until completion, so you can revisit lessons as many times as needed. We believe in nurturing confident, capable, and compassionate Hijama practitioners – and that starts with a course built around you.
Prophetic Sunnah: A Revival With Purpose
In a world flooded with pharmaceuticals, synthetic remedies, and overmedicalisation, Hijama therapy offers a vital return to natural healing rooted in Divine wisdom. More Muslims are seeking alternatives that align with their faith and their fitrah – their natural state. Hijama cupping is not just an ancient detox tool; it’s a living Sunnah that reconnects the body to balance, restores vitality, and offers relief without compromising your Islamic values. Through our accredited course, you’ll gain the skills to bring Sunnah-based therapies into modern homes and lives – ethically, safely, and with clinical integrity.
Learning Hijama is far more than acquiring a health skill. It is an act of ibadah (worship), a revival of a forgotten Sunnah, and a meaningful way to serve the ummah. Every treatment becomes a chance to revive a practice beloved to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, to help others heal, and to gain reward for facilitating physical and spiritual wellbeing. With each session, you’re doing more than improving circulation – you are participating in legacy-building through the tradition of Prophetic medicine.
Our course goes beyond technique. We teach you how to remove fasad (harmful stagnation) from the body in both a physical and spiritual sense. You will learn how to make intention before Hijama, how to approach each treatment with ihsan (excellence), and how to work in a way that is rooted in humility, trust, and responsibility. This is not just cupping therapy – it is the revival of a healing Sunnah, applied with modern hygiene, compassion, and Islamic ethics.
For many students, learning Hijama therapy has become a form of da’wah and spiritual fulfilment. Whether you use it within your household, community, or professional setting, you are playing a role in returning Prophetic medicine to its rightful place: as a trusted, respected, and impactful mode of healing for the ummah and beyond.
