I was very hesitant to try acupuncture, but my back pain had become enough of a problem that I took a recommendation and booked an appointment with Ryley at North Star. Ryley interviewed me regarding my health concerns and explained everything.

★★★★★ — Greg, Apr 2019

This place is a dream. From the moment i walked in i was impressed. Not only is it clean and professional but calming and relaxing. It would make anyone feel at ease. The acupuncturists take their time and really listen. You can tell they genuinely want to help.

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.
