Here's what we found: “cause I like the approach for both relaxation or recovery massages. I usually chose a recovery massage because I prefer more of a sports massage after a week of workouts. I also like the fact they don’t charge extra for cupping - I don’t…” source →

From the reviews

When I started the appointment process online, within 5 minutes, Dr. Cooper called me and set up the appointment for the next day. The office staff was great. Dr Cooper did the assessment and asked for additional info before starting any treatment. That showed the care for the patient.

★★★★★ — Mirwais, Jan 2026

Josue was great. He used a variety of effective techniques to target exactly what I asked for. Over 1 week later my back is still feeling good and knotty-free.

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.
