From the reviews

Nando is truly exceptional. I’ve been seeing him for myofascial release massage, and his knowledge, skill, and intuitive understanding of the body are on a completely different level. He explains what he’s doing, listens carefully, and tailors each session to exactly what my body needs.

I had a great experience. My ribs had been causing my trouble, and we did some adjustments and cupping. I feel much better. My lungs no longer feel like they are being squeezed by my ribs.

★★★★★ — Lisa, Feb 2024

Dr. Nugent is excellent. He takes time to listen and he works to fix the root of the problem. I also use Nando for myofascial release and he is great. They are very professional and great at communication. I highly recommend them.

★★★★★ — Susan, Jul 2026

Dr. Strang is THE BEST. I have been to multiple chiropractors over the years that were great but Dr. Strang is by far in a league of her own. Her approach is so refreshing.

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.
