From the reviews

Dr. James has been nothing but exceptional in his patient care from the very first session I used with him. I suffered from constant back pain for years due to an over active lifestyle.

★★★★★ — Calin, Apr 2019

I am 40 years old and was suffering from anxiety and didn’t have a period for 10 months. After seeing Dr. James my anxiety went away after two weeks and three sessions later my period started. He is so gentle, sweet and kind. I would recommend him to anyone having anxiety issues or period issues. Thank you 🙏 Dr. James

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.
