From the reviews

Good Day All! I have to shout out to the team at Pivot Physical Therapy in Colonial Heights, VA. However, a very special thank you to my therapist Kristen Mills. She has really helped me regain use of my right arm, hands and neck.

★★★★★ — Nikki, Jul 2021

To be honest when I walked into pivot I had a very low expectation however I was wrong completely wrong. At 58 yrs old I have degenerate bone and disc disease which has affected my lower spine up to the top of my cervical spine and now to add insult to injury it has started too affect my shoulder which also affected…

★★★★★ — Karen, May 2023

Vikki has been my therapist and she has been nothing short of phenomenal! I feel like she’s more of a special family member versus just a physical therapist. She is knowledgeable and loves getting to know you and your needs! I would highly recommend her.

★★★★★ — Jess, Jul 2023

I had a car accident in April 2016. I didn't receive broken bones or cuts. As the days went by I started to get burning pains in my legs and numbness. I tried massage therapy, that did not work. I went to the chiropractor and they told me that my spin was out of joint.

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.
