★★★★★ — Rachel, Feb 2014

Had a great treatment today with David. Highly recommend this place!!

★★★★★ — Stephanie, Jul 2016

I came to MRCA because of chronic migraines, sinus problems, and alignment issues. My treatments have had a profound effect on my health having gone from one headache a week to only a few this year. I leave my treatments pain-free and relaxed.

★★★★★ — Hope, May 2017

David is an amazing guy. After visiting other practitioners, I can safely say he is not only uniquely talented, but a uniquely caring, compassionate and positive individual. I always feel fantastic after a session here. You won't find a more trustworthy, capable, and friendly person.

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.
