From the reviews
Core PT in Blacksburg was great! Staff all super friendly and very responsive + communicative. I had a pretty severe IT Band Syndrome injury from running overuse. I went to Core and Kate was my PT, she helped me with a number of exercises, return to running program, and some dry-needling/suction cup recovery as well.

Wrapped up PT for a meniscus repair around 2 months ago and I am amazed at how pain free I am now! Peti and Brenda are really fantastic and create such a welcoming and judgement-free space.
Yessss Kate! Thank goodness that I saw Kate! I went to Kate B. for a neck issue and she was phenomenal!!! I couldn’t turn my head in either direction, and I met with Kate for 2 times and immediately experienced relief and healing. She gave me exercises to do at home in addition to dry needling and manipulation.
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.
