★★★★★ — S, Jan 2020

…She is a good listener, and adjusts her treatment for you as necessary, and even does a lot of cupping and massage therapy which helps to release the deeper muscles that are in tension. She keeps me highly tuned. Couldn't recommend her highly enough, definitely give her a shot.

★★★★★ — Zach, Mar 2016

Megan has truly been a blessing. I began seeing Megan for fertility reasons and found that she was not only the PERFECT person for that job, but also a great soul to have in your life.

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.
