From the reviews
I discovered Allyson and Point Well Taken after moving to Baltimore last summer. I appreciate Allyson's holistic approach to the care and treatment. Not only has the treatment helped boost my energy and balance my stress levels but Allyson has also made some very help suggestions such as a yoga practice, herbal…
Point Well Taken was recommended by a friend in early 2021 and I’m so grateful! Another practitioner was suggested but I connected most with Allyson after reading the groups bios and she’s amazing!
I went to Laura to help with a number of things - she has become a part of the family and I’m always so excited to go check in with her. I feel so much more relaxed when I leave and she has already helped me through so much!
Allyson is a acupuncture goddess. She helped me so much with my sciatica pain during my pregnancy and was able to help with overall stress during that time. Her warmth and welcoming spirit are just the icing on the cake of her awesomeness. Do yourself a favor and make an appointment today.
Booking hijama (wet cupping) at Point Well Taken Acupuncture
Point Well Taken Acupuncture comes up as a provider that offers hijama — wet cupping, where the skin is lightly punctured after suction so a small amount of blood is drawn. If you're booking hijama specifically, a few things are worth asking before you go. First, sterility is everything — a reputable practitioner uses a fresh, single-use kit (new blades and cups) for every client and follows clean, gloved technique. It's completely fair to ask how they handle this. Second, many people booking hijama want a same-gender practitioner — ask whether that can be arranged. Third, ask about aftercare and whether they observe particular days if that matters to you.
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.
