From the reviews

I was referred by my son to Dr. Britta Memmesheimer for back pain resulting from a fall. I found her to be very caring, kind and helpful! She is not only a great doctor but a wonderful human being! I was searching for an acupuncturist that I could build a relationship of healing and health with...I have now found her!

First time visiting and highly satisfied. Evan Bussanich was very professional and knowledgeable. He definitely made us feel comfortable and explained everything throughly. The new office location is excellent and has calming feeling to it. Staff were great and made us feel welcome.

★★★★★ — Cynthia, Oct 2025

Dr. Britta is truly amazing. She combines deep knowledge with intuition and genuine care in a way that’s rare to find. She takes time to really listen, remember details, and explain everything clearly so you feel understood and informed. Each session feels thoughtful and unhurried.

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.
