From the reviews
I have hernia disc and after my first session I could walk without pain for some hours for the first time in months. I had an wonderful experience with Dr Liu and I will continue my treatment with her because she is very professional, caring and nice.
Dr Liu is a fantastic doctor. They really care about the patients wellbeing and symptoms, and adjust the treatment plan to how things are progressing. I have been seeing them for a few months for an internal condition that has largely resolved, after years of failing to find adequate treatment elsewhere.
Absolutely amazing experience with Dr. Liu! She’s helped with my shoulder pain and I feel genuinely relaxed during and after each session. The location is also incredibly convenient—as it is located right next to a T stop. Great experience in every aspect!
I was suffering for months with a wrist injury that would not heal, and under the care of Dr Liu, my pain has completely disappeared. She has a comforting presence and is very skilled. I highly recommend her!! She was also able to take my insurance :)
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.
