What clients say about the cupping here
“I wholeheartedly credit my smooth and unmedicated delivery to Brianna’s expertise, encouragement, and the wide range of support she provided.”
“She does a great job of making you feel comfortable, listens, and provides not only acupuncture, but has also provided me with hand and body massage and cupping.”
“One of the most unique aspects of her treatments is her gentle rocking technique, combined with multiple healing modalities that help the body soften, release, and return to its natural center.”
“I had basically intolerable tennis elbow and in a few treatments it's barely noticeable, and on the way to full recovery.”
“She creates a comfortable and welcoming environment, and I've always appreciated how patient and supportive she is.”
From the reviews
…She does a great job of making you feel comfortable, listens, and provides not only acupuncture, but has also provided me with hand and body massage and cupping. I've come away feeling really relaxed and cared for after my two sessions. Highly recommend!
I can’t recommend Brianna enough! Her background in L&D nursing combined with her deep knowledge of Chinese medicine creates such a unique and holistic approach to care through pregnancy. Each appointment left me feeling cared for, grounded, and supported—physically and emotionally.
Incredible experience with Brianna! Was able to book a same day appt to work on my breech baby. I had a lot of anxiety going into the appt, Brianna met me with calm, clarity and empathy.
Brianna is great - super friendly & easy to work with, and gets results. I had basically intolerable tennis elbow and in a few treatments it's barely noticeable, and on the way to full recovery. I couldn't be happier with the treatments, and wish I would have found her & started it earlier. Highly recommend!
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.
