Christian is extraordinary in everything he does. I have been with him for over 2 years and always have solid take aways after every session. I am so grateful to have found him and appreciate all that I have learned. I highly recommend Christian for acupuncture, cupping and coaching services.

My acupuncture and cupping appointment with Christian is consistently a highlight of my month. Christian is an incredible listener and takes into account my sleep, energy, digestion, body, and mind before he starts.

★★★★★ — Jordan, Apr 2023

I have been seeing Christian for acupuncture and cupping for 6 years now. He is knowledgeable, caring, and an expert in his field. He has helped me when Western medicine has fallen short. He looks at the whole person, not just a set of symptoms. I feel truly lucky to know him.

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.
