From the reviews

I would give Margaret at GCA more than 5 stars if I could! I am currently undergoing IVF treatment and Margaret has been nothing short of wonderful. She always makes me feel comfortable, her space and atmosphere is very relaxing and she has been very flexible with my schedule.

I have been coming to Glenside Community Acupuncture for a few weeks now and would definitely recommend the practice. Location and parking is great and the building is very inviting and well kept. I have been personally seeing Michelle as my acupuncturist and would definitely recommend.

★★★★★ — M, Feb 2022

Had my first session yesterday with Margaret. I have nothing but great things to say. Being my first time getting acupuncture I felt totally at ease from the time I walked in the door and said hello. She has a very calm and caring personality and I left there feeling the most relaxed I’ve been in a very long time.

★★★★★ — George, Jan 2021

Love love love this practice! I’ve been going to different practices for nearly 20 years. Margaret is kind and thorough and listens so well. I felt very comfortable with the covid precautions they are taking.

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.
