From the reviews
I love doing private acupuncture sessions with Disha. I am so grateful I started with her a few months ago to work on my stress, pain management, and PCOS. She is very skilled at what she does! She listens to my concerns and has a wealth of knowledge to respond to exactly what my body needs.
I love Pulse Community Acupuncture. It is a beautiful peaceful space in which to receive treatment. Today I tried a cupping session with Hannah Losman. Hannah was wonderful. She explained the process step by step as we went through it. It was a warming, invigorating, relaxing experience.
Pulse Community Care is filled with professional, thoughtful, and communicative practitioners. I've had acupuncture and cupping from a variety of different practitioners and have felt that they have all offered stellar service.
I love this place. I see Disha on a regular basis for acupuncture. She is skilled at building rapport to uncover the areas where acupuncture would be the most effective. Through a few weeks of treatment, I've walked way with a clearer mind, more open breathing, and better digestion.
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.
