From the reviews

I had a wonderful massage with Elise. I'm 32weeks pregnant and I'm really starting to feel the muscle aches in my backs and legs. Elise completely eased those aches. It was so nice to be able to lay face down comfortably. The massage room is so peaceful that I nearly fall asleep. I haven't felt that relaxed in months.

I have been going to Essential Acupuncture for over a year. Zoe is incredible and the ladies at the front desk are very nice. I started my treatments with fertility in mind. I went in addition to my fertility treatments at SRM.

★★★★★ — Gloria, Sep 2025

I’ve been coming to Essential Accupuncture for over two years. I experienced a TIA stroke which scared the crap out of me & wanted to do everything possible to to recover. I was told that Accupuncture might be a good thing to do. I’m glad this business was recommended.

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.
