From the reviews

5/19/26 Another great cupping massage from Leah - I went in with a lot of stress held in my shoulders. Leah used a lovely camomile and lavender oil, a great massage and way to destress! 2/6/25 A cupping massage is always a good way to find and work on those tight spots, and Leah certainly found mine!

★★★★★ — Sue, May 2026

Walking into Great Blue Acupuncture feels like stepping into a sanctuary. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with such genuine warmth and care that I knew I was in good hands. This women-owned and operated practice is not only empowering but deeply intuitive in its approach to healing.

★★★★★ — Kasey, Jun 2025

Leah is phenomenal. She leads with kindness and empathy, listens to your issues, and takes impeccable care. I saw huge changes in my body from our sessions. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because they don't take my insurance anymore (Anthem BCBS) - and only do a superbill, which forces you to pre-pay for…

★★★★☆ — Abby, Sep 2024

Leah has helped me in such a big way with my pregnancy. From helping me sleep to even helping with moving the baby from the breach position . She always made sure i was comfortable, adding extra pillows or the pregnancy pillow if needed. Even before pregnancy she helped me with my stress levels and sleeping better.

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.
