Hidden Gems: Meet Esma Elmerini of Hijama Cupping Services

Today we’d like to introduce you to Esma Elmerini. 

Hi Esma, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
Hi there I’m Esma , I’m born and raised in the Netherlands and came to the US 17 years ago
I was raised in a household where going to doctors or using conventional medicine wasn’t a thing
My father was into holistic healing and he introduced me to hijama (aka wet cupping therapy )

I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
My obstacles were not only in business I had to raise 8 children on my own while studying and setting up my business, Covid hit and effected all businesses , but God is great and generous, through prayers it picked up again.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your business?
Hijama aka wet cupping is a therapy that removes excessive fluids from the body So the body can regain its ability to heal itself the way it’s supposed to 

Majority of people are familiar with dry cupping only 

Having hijama done frequently balances anything imbalanced and, therefore can reverse ailments, alleviate aches and pains and also expel negative energy that causes stress, anxiety, depression, etc. 

It’s a therapy for body mind, and soul that has been practiced for 1000’s of years in Chinese medicine, ancient Egypt and now regaining its popularity in these times where people are just tired of popping pills and searching for more holistic remedies that actually benefit our bodies, many clients have escaped unnecessary pain and surgeries 

Hijama is the Arabic word for suction / expelling referring to the vacuum created on the skin to pull the skin from the muscles to promote blood flow and to expel dead blood cells, uric acid, lymphatic fluid, and anything else floating around causing health issues 

Hijama in the Muslim world became extremely popular since the time the Prophet Mohamed had it performed on him and recommended his community to have it performed as well due to its great benefits for body mind, and soul 

In terms of your work and the industry, what are some of the changes you are expecting to see over the next five to ten years?
