From the reviews

I highly recommend Dr. Key for acupuncture therapy. I have a chronic back pain for many years that flares up badly every few years. Nothing really has helped with the pain except for acupuncture that I tried 20 years back.

★★★★★ — Savita, Apr 2020

Dr Key is amazing and would highly recommend him and his approach to pain management, holistic therapies and general wellness. I walked into his practice with severe pain in my lower back due and through several sessions of acupuncture, cupping and massage was able to return to my active lifestyle of family, work and…

★★★★★ — Eleanor, Mar 2019

Alright, walking in I had really bad heart palpitations , numbness on my left arm, anxiety, period problems, random swelling of joins and Insomnia. I knew something wasn't right, and I need help.

★★★★★ — Rebekah, Oct 2021

I was in a lot of lower back, rear end, leg pain. I tried massage and chiropractor with no relief. I've tried acupuncture before so thought I would give it a try. Out of desperation to get the soonest appointment I began looking on yelp. Dr. Key got me in quickly. After 2 appointments, I was completely healed!

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.
