Hijama pricing in London varies more than it should. This guide covers real numbers, what a proper session includes, and the questions to ask any clinic before you hand over your money.
The short answer
At Sincerity Cupping Clinic in Streatham, hijama starts from £45. A full session runs 60-75 minutes and includes a health consultation, dry cupping, wet cupping and aftercare guidance — all with single-use sterile equipment. The clinic is open every day from 10:00-19:00.
What does hijama typically cost across London?
Prices across London run from roughly £45 to £120 per session. Where you sit on that range depends on the clinic's location, the practitioner's experience, the number of cups applied and whether the consultation is included or charged separately.
A price below £45 from a trained, insured practitioner is unusual and should raise questions rather than interest. A price above £100 is common in central London and high-footfall areas but does not automatically mean the session is better. The headline number tells you very little on its own.
What matters more than the price is what that price actually covers. Here are the right questions:
- Is the health consultation included, or charged separately?
- Does the price cover all the cups you need, or is there an add-on fee per cup?
- Is the equipment genuinely single-use and disposed of in front of you?
- Are practitioners trained, insured and experienced?
- Is aftercare guidance part of the session?
If a clinic cannot answer all five clearly, that tells you something important before you commit.

Is hijama suitable for me?
Hijama is a complementary therapy with roots in prophetic medicine. It is not a substitute for medical care and does not treat or cure any medical condition. Before booking, check whether it is appropriate for you. Do not book if you are pregnant, are taking blood thinners such as warfarin or clopidogrel, or have uncontrolled diabetes — these are absolute contraindications. If you have anaemia, an active infection or a long-term health condition, speak to your GP first. At Sincerity Cupping Clinic, the health consultation at the start of every session is designed to flag exactly these considerations before any cups are placed. Practitioners will ask directly about medication, health history and the reason for your booking. If there is any doubt about suitability on the day, the appointment will not go ahead — your safety comes before the session.
The suitability check is not a formality. It is the first thing that happens at every appointment, and it applies equally to first-time clients and regulars.
What should I ask any clinic before I book?
Price aside, these are the questions worth asking any hijama clinic in London:
- Are practitioners insured? Ask specifically about professional indemnity, not just public liability.
- Is equipment genuinely single-use? New lancets and cups for every client. Ask whether they are disposed of in front of you.
- How long have they been practising? Years of direct experience matter more than a short course certificate.
- Is there a consultation before the session? Without one, there is no proper suitability check.
- Is the quoted price all-inclusive? Confirm whether consultation, equipment and aftercare are all covered.
A good clinic will welcome those questions without hesitation. If the responses feel vague or defensive, look elsewhere.
