From the reviews
I highly recommend getting acupuncture here. Very professional and clean. Cupping is included in the groupon so book now! Totally worth it. Real Chinese medicine acupuncture.
Wei is a very talented acupuncturist and healer. He's very gentle, a careful listener, and is highly attuned. I've seen him for a variety of issues, from severe colds to generalized anxiety, and every single time I walk out of an appointment I feel much better.
I can’t begin to express my gratitude to Wei. He has been nothing short of a miraculous healer for me. I came to see him at a time when I could not function from pain in my back and hip. I was literally bent in half. I couldn’t straighten up, I couldn’t even lay down. I was miserable and losing hope. He was magical.
Sent by the VA for chronic back pain. Found relief with this therapy
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.
