From the reviews
At Flora and Fana, I experienced near immediate relief from chronic back and hip pain. (I had tried a different practitioner with not much relief.) Marie’s knowledge and ability to talk about the acupuncture process and practices were refreshing and informative.
Marie is fantastic! She is compassionate, kind, attentive, and very easy to talk to. I underwent cupping and acupuncture, and the whole experience was very relaxing. She even followed up after the session to check in on me. I would highly recommend her services!
This was my first experience with acupuncture and cupping and it was amazing! I originally went for help addressing some sciatica pain, and then also received fertility help. Was very excited to get pregnant within two months after two years of trying!

Booking hijama (wet cupping) at Flora and Fana Acupuncture
Flora and Fana Acupuncture comes up as a provider that offers hijama — wet cupping, where the skin is lightly punctured after suction so a small amount of blood is drawn. If you're booking hijama specifically, a few things are worth asking before you go. First, sterility is everything — a reputable practitioner uses a fresh, single-use kit (new blades and cups) for every client and follows clean, gloved technique. It's completely fair to ask how they handle this. Second, many people booking hijama want a same-gender practitioner — ask whether that can be arranged. Third, ask about aftercare and whether they observe particular days if that matters to you.
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.
