From the reviews
I had an absolutely amazing experience with Ellie! The massage was both deeply relaxing and incredibly therapeutic; I truly felt the skill and intention behind every technique.
I have relied on Ellie for years. She’s a good listener, taking in all the information I share in order to use her extensive knowledge of Chinese Medicine and acupuncture techniques to determine the best treatment. Over the years, I’ve relied on her when I just need to get energy in my body flowing.
I first went to Ellie a year ago upon a recommendation from a fellow cyclist. I was suffering from piriformis syndrome. I wasn’t getting any relief from a pain specialist so he suggested that I try acupuncture. After eight or so visits, I was finally getting some relief.
Ellie is an excellent listener who understands how to properly respond to issues relating to pain. After 8 visits, the nagging irritation and stiffness in my shoulder almost completely dissipated. Months of physical therapy did not do the trick. It feels great to be able to return to activities that I love pain free.
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.
