From the reviews

I have been a patient of Kristen's for more than 7 years. From allergies to my skin challenge, I have found Kristen to be not only helpful, but a great listener with strong support and knowledge!. She knows me better than any doctor and I have complete faith in her! The office is always so helpful, kind, and peaceful!

Kristen is the epitome of grace and light. I have suffered for 5 1/2 years from infertility. I started seeing Kristen weekly, a little before we began IVF (our 3rd round of infertility treatments, each prior round unsuccessful). We just found out we are PREGNANT!

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.
