From the reviews

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.

Dr Pajcini has been extremely helpful over the last several months since I started seeing him. What was originally a visit for some shoulder pain began a journey of correcting a lot of posture / core issues that have developed over the years.

★★★★★ — Nick, Feb 2022

The new shockwave therapy at River Forest Health & Wellness has been incredibly effective for my headaches. I noticed immediate relief and continued improvement, with headaches now almost gone. The team is professional, kind, and truly focused on patient results.

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.
