From the reviews

I came to Boris with a frozen shoulder that left me in constant pain and with very limited movement. After 10 sessions, my range of motion improved by 90%! 🎉 Boris is attentive, caring, and takes a holistic approach — combining acupuncture, cupping, herbs, massage, and more.

I am new to Raleigh and I had to find a new acupuncturist. I was so lucky to find Anya, the ultimate professional. She did her magic with acupuncture, cupping, massage, etc… I have been going to acupuncturists in Maryland for over 10 years and I must say I am so relieved that I found Anya.

★★★★★ — Hinda, Jun 2026

I’ve been a client of City of Oaks Acupuncture for several months, ever since my previous acupuncturist recommended them when she was unable to fit me in to her busy schedule. I can’t say enough good about them, Boris is so compassionate and concerned with my wellbeing.

★★★★★ — Lib, Apr 2025

I cannot find the words to describe the incredible care I received here. I came in because of lower back pain that had been bothering me for over two months; I noticed a huge difference after just the first acupuncture session, and after three sessions, I feel much better.

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.
