What clients say about the cupping here
“Having lived in the DC area for many years, I’ve seen around 15-20 acupuncturists in an attempt to treat my chronic lower back pain, headaches, and severe insomnia.”
“At best, I experienced slight improvement for a day or two, but the unbearable hot flashes, night sweats, and insomnia felt like an unending nightmare.”
“Guo conducted a thorough assessment and patiently explained the underlying cause of my chronic pain, something even my orthopedic specialists had overlooked.”
“I truly enjoy the calming atmosphere during treatments, often accompanied by soothing music or relaxing white noise, which helps me drift into a peaceful rest.”
“He understood my issues and used the traditional Qi based acupuncture I prefer to dramatically reduce my asthma/allergies and sports-injury ailments.”
“Every room is equipped with everything he's ever needs to treat his patients: clean beds, bed covers, pillows, blankets, electrical stimulations, lamps.”
From the reviews
Balance Art Acupuncture is a very professional, well organized, and helpful practice. Dr. Run Gao is kind and compassionate. He listens and explains what he is doing and recommends. The staff is friendly and efficient with scheduling and payments. The entire office is neat and clean.
I love this place! I get treatments done by Dr. Run Guo who is amazingly talented and knowledgeable. Iris at the front is always super friendly and helpful too. I have been seeing great results so far from a combination of acupuncture, electrostimulation, heat lamps and recently cupping and am very happy with it!!
I must say Dr. Guo is the only doctor who has effectively treated my severe menopause symptoms. I am a patient from New Jersey, and three years ago, I had tried every acupuncturist in NJ, visited doctors in New York, and taken numerous medications for menopause. None of them worked.
I was referred to Balance Art Acupuncture by a friend. Having lived in the DC area for many years, I’ve seen around 15-20 acupuncturists in an attempt to treat my chronic lower back pain, headaches, and severe insomnia. While many treatments provided some relief, none fully met my expectations.
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.
