From the reviews

…He used a combination of deep pressure and cupping. I appreciated how he checked in about pressure levels and adjusted based on my feedback. By the end of the session, I had noticeably improved range of motion and less sharp pain when moving my arm.

★★★★★ — Terry, Aug 2025

…Uses multiple tools including shockwave therapy and cupping when deemed indicated. My job requires a lot of time on my feet and strain on my shoulders and I feel much better every time I see him! Would recommend 100%.

★★★★★ — Gisela, Aug 2025

Was recommend by my wife to go see Heather for my shoulder issue after not seeing any progress of improvement on my own. After three sessions so far I have seen great improvement and feel a lot better. Heather holds herself as a true professional, knowledgeable, and has created a friendly environment at Muscle Shark.

★★★★★ — Storm, Jul 2024

I recently visited muscle shark for tightness in my back but while there I also mentioned some very intense knee pain over the past couple of months. Heather worked on my knee and the next day I tried training legs again and was shocked when I had virtually no more knee pain!

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.
