From the reviews
Dr. Cao is an excellent doctor. He is professional, attentive and he always has his patients’ best interest in mind. He thoroughly explained all the procedures and made me feel comfortable during the appointment. His bedside manners were superb. He took the time to check and inform me on my insurance coverage.
The knowledge and trust I gained immediately when I walked in and was greeted. The doctor was very patient to listen all details of issues i had and carefully anwsered all questions. I strongly recommand the doctor.
Dr. Cao is excellent! I am so thankful for his knowledge, experience and professionalism. He has broad knowledge on acupuncture. He is caring, friendly, compassionate. His treatment recommendations made good sense. I would recommend Dr Cao to everyone. Great Doctor!
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.
