From the reviews

I found Judith in a time of need when my adrenals were truly needing some TLC. Her office sanctuary is beautiful, serene, and quiet, with lovely hummingbirds outside to greet me every time upon entrance.

★★★★★ — Jonny, Nov 2023

During a time of stress, I developed a racing heart, usually felt at night and causing sleeplessness. Judith gave me a remote session, during which I could actually feel the sensation of needles delicately placed in different areas of my body, particularly my hands and feet.

★★★★★ — Asha, Sep 2022

Judith is fantastic! She took an interest in understanding my condition rather than applying one size fits all approach, and has been a tremendous help for me physically and mentally. I always feel nice and relaxed after our appointments, then re-energized and balanced as I come back to life!

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.
