    Cupping, leeching, and other ancient healing methods welcomed in modern

    Dr. Erdal Dilekci, a specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation at Medicana International Hospital, performs leech threapy on Seyda Yilmaz in Istanbul, Turkey August 28, 2025. Known locally as hacamat, wet cupping and other traditional treatments such as leech therapy are being increasingly performed under government oversight in Turkey, rather than in informal settings such as homes, to complement modern medicine and cut down infection risks.

    ABOUT QUEWS

    We are a news service born out of a global loss of confidence in media and destabilising polarisation of attitudes. We believe it is possible, indeed necessary, to create a public forum where vital issues of the day are discussed, debated, analysed and circulated.
