From the reviews
…I have improved so much and believe his acupuncture and cupping really helps me a lot. This is my first time using this holistic approach, and has improved the quality of life for me. I recommend him, he knows what he is doing and is super nice, and very flexible. Am so glad to have found him.
I recently had my first cupping session, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and at ease. The doctor was incredibly kind, approachable, and down-to-earth, which made the process even more comfortable for me as a first-timer.
I've seen Dr. Lee for a few sessions for back pain. While I was there I experienced pain relief and relaxation with him. It was amazing and felt great. He provides the ultimate patient care, and takes pride in his ability to provide fast, safe, and effective treatment solutions. Higley recommend it.
Dr. Lee is super friendly and competent. He is efficient and I never waited for him to take care of me. As soon as I walk in "Hi Doris, please step into this room.." I started to see him in May for my wrist pain. It hindered me from doing regular household chores like washing dishes.
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.
