Nenita is absolutely the best acupuncturist I have ever been to. She takes the time to listen to what is happening with the body and explains what she does to help. Truly the best experience and results I have experienced. The staff are so kind and friendly.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Nenita McElroy and the incredible care I’ve received at Aviara Acupuncture. Nenita’s holistic approach to wellness is truly one of a kind. She doesn’t just treat symptoms—she takes the time to understand the whole 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.
