From the reviews

I highly recommend Dr. Zhuang to anyone looking for effective acupuncture treatment. I've been seeing her since last year for neck and shoulder pain. Dr. Zhuang's combination of cupping and acupuncture has significantly improved my condition.

★★★★★ — Ashi, Nov 2024

As an ABC that grew up with parents that embraced Chinese traditional medicine, I've seen many acupuncturists over the years. While I'm comfortable with needles, I often hesitated to go because the "small talk" could feel like getting a lecture from a nagging auntie. Dr.

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.
