From the reviews

Dr Karen is amazing to work with as a doctor and is extremely knowledgeable in Oriental Medicine including acupuncture, and homeopathic healing. Summer Ball (massage therapist) has helped tremendously through application of medical massage to heal from my shoulder/collarbone injury, among other ailments.

Dr Karen is absolutely amazing at what she does. Her acupuncture skills are ON POINT (no pun intended)..... Jokes aside, if you are looking for a great acupuncturist, stop looking and call Dr Karen right now - you'll be very happy you did.

Dr. Helmick is amazing!! Honestly, I did not believe in acupuncture but when you are desperate and in pain who won’t try anything ? Boy was I in for a surprise! It is the only thing that has helped my back pain. The pain gets less and less each time I go. She is a wonder worker. I am so very glad I found her!

★★★★★ — Bridget, Dec 2021

Karen and her team have been amazing! I was sent to her when I was searching for months for what was going on and other doctors just came up with peices of the puzzle. She knew exactly what I needed and has been a huge part of my recovery from PTSD and healing process.

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.
