that shaped the modern Middle East.

There is reason to believe the practice dates from as early as 3000 BC. The

the Western world, describes the Egyptians' use of cupping, while
mentioning similar practices employed by Saharan peoples. In ancient Greece,
Hippocrates (c. 400 BC) used cupping for internal disease and structural
