From the reviews
…In my case, i was introduced to cupping and it has helped dramatically with the pain i experience. Dr Mary has the credentials to work toward improving your life. She is hands on and interested in how you are feeling before introducing any treatment.
…I’ve visited her for acupuncture, cupping, and alternative medicine advice and all three were a positive experience. Western medicine is not the end all be all, visit Dr. Mary. *Also, if you like furry friends you may even get some furry friend therapy as an added bonus :)*
I first began to know Mary Papa in 2021. I was in a difficult era of my life. But I was regimented in my fitness structure and adhering to consistent physical discipline all year long. Mary was introduced to me by a spiritual brother in common.
Mary has helped me so much with neck and shoulder pain! This has made a huge difference in my every day activities. I have tried chiropractors and even shots with short term relief. Mary took the time to figure out what would help my pain and I am amazed at how I feel. I can only say if you are in pain please see Mary.
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.
