From the reviews
I cannot say enough about this office. The atmosphere is calm, relaxing, and very welcoming. I see Dr.Vicky Guo and she is truly amazing at what she does. As someone who has suffered from chronic pain for years due to multiple bulging disc in my neck, acupuncture with Dr.Guo is the only thing that has give me relief.
Dr Sam (Prashad) is the absolute best!!! I was hesitant about doing acupuncture (the needles and all haha) but she made me super comfortable and I never felt a thing. I can't say enough about how much she has helped me with my chronic neck and shoulder/traps pain.
I’ve been seeing James for acupuncture, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the positive impact he’s had on my well-being. From the very first session, James calming presence immediately put me at ease.
I had an amazing experience with Dr. Vicky Guo! The service was absolutely excellent from beginning to end. She is so kind, caring, and truly makes you feel comfortable and welcomed. The atmosphere is peaceful, loving, and incredibly relaxing — the perfect place to unwind and heal.
What to expect from your first cupping session
New to cupping? Here's the short version. What happens: the practitioner places cups on the skin — most often the back, shoulders, or legs — and creates suction (with a pump, or briefly with a flame for fire cupping). Cups either stay put for a few minutes (dry cupping) or are glided over oiled skin (massage cupping). A session is usually 15–45 minutes, often added to a massage or acupuncture visit. The marks: cupping leaves round, bruise-like circles that are normal and usually fade in a few days to a couple of weeks — they're discoloration from the suction, not an injury, and shouldn't really hurt. What to wear: comfortable clothing that gives access to the area being treated. Afterward: drink water, keep the area warm, and skip intense sun or a hot sauna right after.
