From the reviews
I started going to a Midgie for wellness and every time gets more and more helpful. I am not one for needles but Midgie makes sure to check in to make sure all needles feel good.
My Acupuncture experience with Midgie Franz (Better Life) is very positive. The treatment I received helped reduced pain in my knees and shoulders. It included needles and heat treatments knowledgably placed. The atmosphere at the Keene NH office provides openess and a feeling of comfort.
I had a wonderful experience with midge at Better Life Acupuncture. I was looking for relief with an inflamed Achilles tendon and after my first session I felt so much better. I’ve been back for another treatment and feel like my healing has been helped enormously by her approach.
Midgie's down to earth, caring energy is wonderful. She is passionate about Chinese medicine and learning more to help holistically treat your needs. She listens well and treats accordingly. She has guided me alongside my healing journey for my pelvis and neck after difficult child births and car accidents.
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.
