cupping/hijama and alternative medicine methods

Does anybody know what it is exactly? I know that our beloved prophet used to do it? I am interested in alternative medicine in general and find that it is very useful when modern medicine fails to treat certain conditions.

Anybody else do any alternative methods for health benefits?

Re: cupping/hijama and alternative medicine methods

i saw an episode of these things on Nida's morning show (it was on air last week, so you may dig last weeks logs).

as for the benefits, i dont really know about them. in fact it was the first time i found out about them.

Yes. I avoid the life 1 threads

Will definitely look into...I think it maybe beneficial Bc the prophet (saw) used it. They definitely knew that honey and olives, ajwa dates are beneficial.

Twinkle, Rasool SAWS mentioned certain dates of the month for hijama. So, one could try yo set their appointments on those dates.
