What clients say about the cupping here
“The cupping therapy has helped me a lot with pain relief and overall recovery.”
“She is a warm and highly skilled practitioner of the healing arts and has drawn together a unique and varied support community through The Nurture Collective.”
“You can tell she truly listens, understands how the body functions, and treats the root of the problem instead of just the symptoms.”
“She offers massage before the adjustment (called chirossage), which I absolutely love because it helps relax the muscles first, allowing the adjustment to be more comfortable and hold longer.”

“Swanson’s office is always welcoming, clean, decorative and a calming atmosphere from the time I walk in.”

Dr. Kristy is a very good doctor. She is professional, caring, and always makes me feel comfortable during visits. The cupping therapy has helped me a lot with pain relief and overall recovery. I’ve noticed a big improvement since starting treatment with her. I truly appreciate her care and highly recommend Dr.Kristy.
I can’t recommend Dr. Kristy Swanson enough. As someone who puts my body through the wringer with athletic training, finding a practitioner who understands recovery is key. Her combination of chiropractic adjustments, massage, and cupping has been a game-changer for me.
I am incredibly grateful for Kristy and the genuine care she shows for others. I attended an event at her office that was unrelated to chiropractic care and held after hours, yet she noticed that I was in pain and immediately wanted to help. That alone spoke volumes.
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.
