HACAMAT NEDİR?
Hacamatın birinci hikmeti sevgili Peygamberimizin as. sünneti olması ve Miraç ta verilmiş olmasıdır. Onun herbir sünnetine uymanın ne kadar makbul olduğu hepimizce bilinmektedir.
Biz tabii ki işin tıbbi yönüne bakacak olursak önce hacamat (kan aldırmak)damardan değildir. Kan bağışı ile Hacamat tamamen değişik iki yöntemdir. Hacamat vakkum usulu ile vücudun çeşitli yerlerinden deri altındaki pis kanı aldırmaktır.
Bilindiği üzere vücuttaki fazla kan kalp ve beyin sektelerine,sinirsel rahatsızlıklar, baş ağrısı,bel ağrısı, diz ağrısı, uyuşukluk vs. gibi bir çok hastalığa sebep olmaktadır. Ayrıca vücuttan o kirli kanın çıkmasından dolayı yeni kan üretme mekanizması harekete geçer.
Hacamatın diğer bir tesiri de bozulan vücut dengesini (ağrı, kasılma ve kan dolaşımının engellenmesi gibi ) tekrar normale getirilmesidir. Bu da Hacamatın anında tesir göstermesi, günenilir olması, ilaçsız ve yan tesirsiz olması Hacamatın tıp dünyasında çok cazip olmasını ve özel bir yer tutmasını sağlamaktadır.

A Cup of History
The specific origin of Cupping Therapy remains in obscurity - the consensus is that the action of suction has been part of therapeutic efforts throughout human history, migrating with human tribes along migratory routes. These ancient cultures used hollowed out animal horns, bones, bamboo, nuts, seashells and gourds to purge bites, pustules, infections and skin lesions from the body, and many are still in use today. Ancient healers also used Cupping devices to draw evil spirits out of the body and to balance the humors. Earthenware and metal were fashioned into Cupping vessels before the development of glass.
Cupping therapy was used in Egypt dating back some 3,500 years, where its use is represented in hieroglyphic writing. The earliest recorded use of Cupping is from the famous Taoist alchemist and herbalist, Ge Hong (281–341 A.D.). In ancient Greece, Hippocrates recommended the use of cups for a variety of ailments, while in the early 1900’s eminent British physician, Sir Arthur Keith, wrote how he witnessed Cupping performed with excellent success. | |
