From the reviews
…She can also try manual therapy, cupping, etc. I've found I now actually prefer needling as I see the best results, and it doesn't hurt once the needles are in. After a session with Jen, I walk out feeling great!
…Dr Ross, while very skilled at massage therapy, really changed my life with dry needling, electro stimulation and cupping. I was pain free within a couple of sessions. I go back once or twice a year when bad habits (computer and phone use) catch up with me, kind of like a tune up.
Jen is an amazing clinician. Her use of dry needling to release my lats, teres, and upper trap - while not fun - is one of the most effective methods I have experienced to facilitate recovery in my shoulders. As a physical therapist, I have sent her many of my clients to help carry over the work that I do.
Jennifer is a gifted healer who has significantly improved my quality of life by alleviating my chronic neck and shoulder pain. Her unique approach not only provides immediate relief but also promotes faster healing.
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.
