I've been seeing Matt for acupuncture and cupping to treat muscle tension, headaches, and some secondary symptoms, and I've already noticed real improvements in just a few weeks. Matt is incredibly thoughtful, experienced, and thorough, more so than other practitioners I've seen in the past.
I have had the pleasure of seeing Matt for close to five years. Matt is extremely knowledgeable and competent. He has helped me in so many ways, including issues with anxiety, depression, digestion, my cycle and more. He has such a kind, personable way. I always feel heard in a way that is so rare.
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.
