From the reviews
…No matter what’s weighing me down or lingering in my soul, after my acupuncture and cupping, session, I leave feeling lighter. It’s that good, #medicine. If you haven’t booked an appointment yet, do it now. Lalita is deeply community-based, even offering a sliding scale to make acupuncture more accessible.
…I don’t have any negative issues with the tiny needles although I had never tried “cupping” before and was a little skeptical. After about 7 sessions I’m not only a believer but now look forward to the treatments (it can sometimes leave temporary harmless but unsightly circular bruises for 7-10 days - totally worth it…
…A second generation Acupuncture professional, she is highly skilled, detail-oriented, and employs a variety of techniques, including cupping and electrical stimulation in addition to needling. My recovery from a severe hamstring pool is proceeding really well, thank to Lalita’s care.
I initially got referred out to Lalita for Bell’s palsy diagnosis and I needed urgent ‼️ help. She was so sweet 🥹 when first meeting her and she made me feel comfortable enough to feel safe. After my 3rd session I started to see great improvement in my face.
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.
