From the reviews

UPDATE 3/16/23 I hurt my back riding my horse, and woke up one day struggling to move, I could barely go from sitting to standing. The pain was so bad I had a hard time breathing. It got better with some movement, but it didn't improve with NSAIDs so I suspected it was a muscle strain.

★★★★★ — Jessica, Mar 2023

As a acupuncture novice and a scientist, I was apprehensive about my first acupuncture session, but Melisa walked me through the methodology and I had a productive session. It is obvious she knows her stuff and I will be back for another session. I also had a Thai massage with Veronica who is amazing.

★★★★★ — Doc, Mar 2023

Melissa is the best that I know in the business specializing with my anxiety disorders and panic attacks. She gave me very detailed information about my issues and asked a lot of pertinent questions concerning my triggers. Her remedies are extremely useful and has helped my progress proceed with positive results.

★★★★★ — Nanette, Jun 2021

Melissa has been great! Even though my description of the discomfort I had been dealing with for over a year, wasn't very clear, she always listened and asked questions so she could provide the best care. She always made me feel comfortable and relaxed during the treatments.

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.
