★★★★★ — Krista, Aug 2025

I recently took a cupping class/training with Dr. Lana. They say when a student is ready. A teacher appears. I was looking around for weeks for a teacher who I can connect with and learn from. Looking at so many different websites. I finally stumbled upon MedVed (Dr.

…I attended a fire cupping and machine cupping training. It was highly detailed and very hands on. Questions are always welcomed. What a great staff! The clinic is located on the 3rd floor. From the 1st floor lobby, make your way across the indoor fountain to the elevator on the South side of building.

…I had a massage, cupping therapy, and acupuncture, all in the same session. By the end of the day, my neck pain was gone, and I could move normally again. I am extremely grateful to Lana for her help, professionalism, and care.

Booking hijama (wet cupping) at MEDVED CLINIC OF EASTERN MEDICINE AND BODYWORK Acupuncture/ Massage/ Deep Tissue Release/ Hijama/ Cupping/ Herbal Pharmacy

MEDVED CLINIC OF EASTERN MEDICINE AND BODYWORK Acupuncture/ Massage/ Deep Tissue Release/ Hijama/ Cupping/ Herbal Pharmacy comes up as a provider that offers hijama — wet cupping, where the skin is lightly punctured after suction so a small amount of blood is drawn. If you're booking hijama specifically, a few things are worth asking before you go. First, sterility is everything — a reputable practitioner uses a fresh, single-use kit (new blades and cups) for every client and follows clean, gloved technique. It's completely fair to ask how they handle this. Second, many people booking hijama want a same-gender practitioner — ask whether that can be arranged. Third, ask about aftercare and whether they observe particular days if that matters to 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.
