From the reviews

Highly recommend working with Lisa at Bay View Wellness. I've been going to Lisa on and off for years... in preparation for pregnancy, during pregnancy, post-pregnancy... when I'm stressed or having back-pain... for acupuncture / cupping / massage / chinese herbs. She's fantastic!

★★★★★ — Arianna, Jan 2024

Lisa was introduced to me by my wife when we were members at Harbor Bay. We are so glad that she has her own practice very close us. I have been dealing with back and knee issues (mainly due to tennis).

★★★★★ — Kenji, Jun 2023

I’m so happy I found Lisa! I have regular bi-weekly services with her and have been happily pain-free! Her mix of massage, cupping and acupuncture has helped me recover from some pretty severe postpartum pain and ongoing back pain.

★★★★★ — Melissa, Aug 2025

I first saw Lisa at Harbor Bay Spa in 1999, and have been a satisfied and grateful client ever since. She has helped me with a variety of maladies from neck and shoulder pain, carpel tunnel syndrome, and negative and stressful emotions.

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.
