From the reviews
…Krussel, using stretching, cupping, an adjustment, some medical balm to sooth, the rib was back in place, the pain was gone the next day and my muscles were relaxed. I have never been satisfied with a Chiropractor until now. I highly recommend Dr. Krussel!
…She also offers alternative options a general practitioner wouldn’t think of like acupuncture & cupping (think Michael Phelps). She is very athletic herself so she understands treating sports related issues. She can also work with babies & children of all ages including your husband (the really babies)!
Dr Kristin Krussel is a miracle worker. I can come to her in crisis of an issue I am having with my body or for a check in/tune up to keep me moving forward. She is kind, caring, communicative and takes the time to understand what is going on with me before working her magic to address an area of focus.
Dr. Kris is amazing. She actually listens to you and tailors your appointment to what is hurting or needs adjusting. She is focuses on whole body health not just adjusting your back. I am so grateful to have found her.
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.
