“I couldn't wait to see her again to resume our professional relationship and benefit from her knowledge and care.”

From the reviews

I have known and been treated by Shelley for many years. I was delighted when she returned to this area after several years continuing her study and living in China. I couldn't wait to see her again to resume our professional relationship and benefit from her knowledge and care.

★★★★★ — Janet, Oct 2023

Shelley has been treating my whole family for years. I started seeing her when I started having menopausal issues and she helped ease the hot flashes and night sweats. She has helped my kids heal faster from sports injuries. She is so knowledgeable and compassionate.

★★★★★ — Krista, Jun 2024

Shelley's acupuncture treatments gave me very significant relief from low back pain after surgery, epidurals and physical therapy failed to reduce the pain. I highly recommend her as a competent, compassionate acupuncturist.

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.

Cupping isn't for everyone — if you're on blood thinners, pregnant, or have a skin condition or bleeding disorder, check with your doctor first, and always tell your practitioner about health concerns before a session. This page is directory information, not medical advice.
