What you actually get
Why We Take Our Time
Your body has been carrying tension for months. It deserves more than a 30-minute slot.
Most cupping and massage clinics work to the clock. Two clients an hour, shared rooms, fixed routines. We work the other way. Every session at Herts Cupping starts with a proper consultation, runs as long as your body needs, and is delivered by one practitioner in a private clinical setting from start to finish.
That's why people travel from across Hertfordshire to come here. Not for the modality. For the time, the attention, and the result.

Common Questions
Things People Ask Before Booking
The five most common questions before a first session. For everything else, message us on WhatsApp.
Does Hijama hurt?
Most clients describe it as a mild scratch, similar to a quick blood test. The cups create gentle suction, not pain. We talk you through every step before starting and adjust as we go. First-timers usually leave saying it was easier than they expected.
How long does a session take?
Hijama sessions run 30 to 60 minutes depending on the option you choose. Recovery sessions with cupping massage and IASTM run 60 to 90 minutes. Allow an extra 10 to 15 minutes at the start for consultation if it's your first visit.
How do I know what to book?
First time or general tension: Signature Hijama. Tightness that keeps coming back: Targeted Recovery + Hijama. Multiple areas or long-term issues: Full Body Recovery + Hijama. Or take the 60-second guide and we'll point you to the right session.
Is the equipment really single use?
Yes. Every cup, blade and disposable used during your wet cupping session is single use and opened in front of you. After the session, all clinical waste is disposed of through certified medical waste channels. No exceptions, no reuse.
Can I drive after a session?
Most clients drive home fine. After wet cupping, some feel slightly tired or lightheaded for a short period, so we recommend resting briefly and drinking water before leaving. If you have a long drive, plan to take 10 to 15 minutes after your session before setting off.
Not sure what to book?
Send a WhatsApp message and we'll guide you to the right session. Or book straight away if you already know what you need.
