From the reviews

Very calming, private atmosphere. Aaron listened carefully when asking the reason for my visit and responded with very specific and effective techniques that left me feeling great. This is all new to me but I enjoyed such a positive outcome that I've already scheduled my next visit in a month. Highly recommended!

★★★★★ — Bob, Jan 2025

I have fibromyalgia and other chronic pain conditions. Aaron is able to work muscles as deep as needed to get the knots out. Also helpful with solutions for home care to help the pain issues I’m dealing with on any given visit. An intuitive, professional individual that I truly couldn’t function well without.

★★★★★ — Beth, Jan 2025

I have been going to Aaron for nearly a decade, I'll never go to anyone else. He is very skilled, very intuitive, he knows what my muscles need better than I do. He is very professional and courteous. Can't recommend him enough! Book with him, thank me later.

★★★★★ — Brenna, Jan 2025

I have chronic tension headaches daily and they turn into migraines. Aaron knows exactly what to do and I would recommend him always. I look forward to my monthly one hour sessions!!! Thank you.

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.
