What clients say about the cupping here
“I went to my first appointment and my chronic low back pain went from an 8/10 to a 2/10 in one appointment.”
From the reviews
I never write reviews but this place is very deserving. I have had chronic lower back pain for 2+ years and this treatment has worked wonders. I’ve tried cryotherapy, physical therapy, chiropractic care (also good), yoga and epidural injections. Jie Jin is the real deal.
This is no longer the location, she now practices at 529 14th street NW. I went to my first appointment and my chronic low back pain went from an 8/10 to a 2/10 in one appointment. I’ve done plenty of massages in the past without half this success. Very thankful for having discovered this treatment.
Dr Jin is very competent in her field. Receiving care here has been significantly effective in treating sprains and knee pain from running injuries. After one or two treatments, I was back to running without any pain.
After several acupuncture sessions, the itching on my skin lessened. My sleep also improved.
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.
