I had an amazing experience with Sis Nasima, everything was very clear she booked me in so quickly with such short notice. Was very happy with the consultation before the session and she really took her time out for me I can tell nothing was rushed. The treatment itself went very smoothly and I have no complaints, nothing but duas for her.

I had a wonderful experience with female fertility Hijama in London. She was very professional, knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole session. She explained everything clearly, including all the instructions and each step of the process, which gave me complete confidence and reassurance. I really appreciated her caring and professional approach, and the time she took to answer my questions. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional and trustworthy Hijama practitioner.

After two years of trying to conceive with no success, a friend recommended Nasima. I was sceptical at first but desperate to try anything natural. After just three sessions of fertility hijama, my cycle regulated for the first time in years — I had always had very irregular periods. Four months later I got my positive test. I genuinely believe Nasima's treatment played a huge part. She is so knowledgeable and caring throughout the whole journey.

I was diagnosed with PCOS at 22 and told conceiving naturally would be very difficult. I tried fertility hijama with Nasima after 18 months of trying. She explained exactly how the treatment targets hormonal imbalance and poor pelvic circulation — things that directly affect PCOS. My LH and FSH levels improved noticeably after the course of treatment. I fell pregnant naturally six months later. I cannot thank Nasima enough.

I came to Nasima after three years of trying and two failed IVF cycles. My consultant had mentioned poor uterine lining as a recurring issue. Nasima's fertility hijama focused on improving blood flow to the uterus and I could genuinely feel the difference — my lining improved on my next scan. We conceived naturally the cycle after completing the treatment. I still cannot believe it. Nasima is a true gift.

Diagnosed with endometriosis and told my chances of natural conception were low. I had been trying for over two years. Nasima tailored the hijama protocol specifically around my endometriosis — targeting inflammation and pelvic congestion. The pain I had experienced every cycle reduced significantly after treatment. Three months after completing the course, I conceived naturally. Nasima is exceptional.

The originator

Facial Hijama® was created
by Nasima Nahar

In 2009, Nasima Nahar developed and pioneered Facial Hijama® — adapting the ancient principles of wet cupping specifically for the delicate anatomy of the face. She is the sole originator of this technique in the UK, holds registered trademarks in Classes 41 and 44, and has trained over 500 practitioners worldwide.

2009

Facial Hijama® pioneered — Nasima develops the first structured facial wet cupping protocol in the UK, adapted for facial anatomy.

2012

First accredited training launched — the NN Facial Hijama® course becomes the only CMA & IPHM accredited Facial Hijama qualification in the UK.

2019

UK trademark registered — NN Facial Hijama® trademarked in Class 41 (education) and Class 44 (medical and beauty services).

2026

700+ practitioners trained — graduates practising across the UK, Europe, and internationally.

There was no framework for Facial Hijama when I started. I had to build it from scratch — the anatomy protocols, the cup selection, the contraindication screening, the aftercare. Everything you learn on this course exists because I created it.
