From the reviews

I am so grateful for all the support Amy has offered me over the years. She is truly a unique and amazing healer. I started seeing Amy when I was pregnant with my first child (I have 3 children who she supported me through pregnancy and postpartum with).

★★★★★ — Sara, Oct 2016

Dr. Hana is the best practitioner I've ever worked with. She's incredibly intelligent, thoughtful and caring. Her way of meeting me where I'm at and gently guiding my mind and body through life's transitions has changed the way I move through this world and my relationship with my body.

★★★★★ — Sarah, Jul 2025

On the anniversary of my care with Dr. Britt Peterson at MFA, I’m writing this review to note how amazing my experience has been with Britt and also MFA as a practice. From my very first appointment, I felt genuinely seen, heard, and cared for - not just as a patient, but as a whole person.

★★★★★ — Soudee, Apr 2026

There are so many acupuncture practices in the area that it can be overwhelming which one to choose. I am writing this review to share what an absolute gem Mitchell Family acupuncture is. I’ve worked with almost all of the acupuncturists there and everyone is just amazing.

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.
