From the reviews

I was very skeptical about acupuncture when I was first introduced to it two years ago by Dr Ko and his wonderful wife/Office Mgr, Leigh Ann. Id suffered for over 30 years with migraines, back, neck, shoulder pain, and ptsd.

★★★★★ — Darrell, Sep 2021

Doug is an excellent practitioner and Lee Ann is as sweet as can be. Both are very accommodating, personable and make you feel comfortable when you are there. However the treatments are why you go there right? So let me just say this.

★★★★★ — J, Oct 2023

The office is pleasant and professional. Dr. Ko is quick to put you at ease and is very knowledgeable about the ancient Chinese medical treatments. His knowledge is not just from the modern acupuncture text books taught at schools but from renowned mentors and ancient Chinese medical treatment writings.

★★★★★ — Elizabeth, Jan 2025

Healing Acupuncture has changed my outlook at life of a patient with chronic pain. The treatments are productive with alleviating my pain up to week. Dr. Ko is great at his profession and following up with his patients. I'm very pleased with his knowledge of Acupuncture. Super professional! Highly 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.
