Question 1

Can you learn hijama in two days?

Accepted Answer

You learn to perform a safe basic treatment in two days. The technique itself is not difficult; it is hygiene, assessment and routines that take time to turn into habit. Becoming genuinely experienced takes longer than a weekend, and we will not claim otherwise.

Question 2

Do I need prior knowledge?

Accepted Answer

No. We start from zero and most participants have no healthcare background. If you already work with massage or care, some parts go faster, but nothing in the course assumes it.

Question 3

May I charge for treatments after the course?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Hijama is not a regulated profession in Sweden, so you may charge without a licence. Swedish patient safety law still applies, and you need to register a company, take out liability insurance and, in most municipalities, notify the environmental authority about your premises. We go through exactly how on day 2.

Question 4

What is the certificate worth?

Accepted Answer

The certificate proves that you completed our training and passed the practical parts. It is not a professional licence, hijama is not a licensed profession in Sweden and no provider can issue one. Its value lies in the content and in being able to show clients and insurers what you were actually trained in.

Question 5

Do participants treat each other?

Accepted Answer

Yes, practice takes place between participants under supervision, with sterile single-use materials. If you prefer not to be treated yourself, tell us in advance and we arrange the practice differently so you still perform every step.

Question 6

What happens if I have to cancel?

Accepted Answer

The deposit of 20 per cent of the fee is non-refundable; the remaining amount is refunded if you cancel at least 14 days before the start. For later cancellations you may move your place to the next course once, subject to availability. Full terms are on the course terms page.

Question 7

Can I pay in instalments?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can split the fee via Klarna. If you would rather set up a payment plan directly with us, that is possible too, just mention it in your registration and we will come back with a proposal.

Question 8

Will there be more courses?

Accepted Answer

The next courses are 5 and 6 December 2026 and 30 and 31 January 2027. Get in touch if you would like a place.
