From the reviews

I highly recommend Melanie for acupuncture. I had acupuncture and cupping for chronic neck pain and it was very helpful. I felt at ease during the entire session and left impressed by how well she "got me in all the right places. " Make an appointment!

★★★★★ — Beth, Dec 2019

This has been my first experience with acupuncture and I’ve been very satisfied with my results. My left arm was going numb and randomly cramping and I was told I may have a herniated disc and should do PT.

★★★★★ — Jeff, May 2023

I started seeing Melanie for a few ongoing health issues - one being a golf injury that was causing discomfort in my shoulder. After two sessions of acupuncture it was feeling much better, and after four sessions I am pleased to report my shoulder feels close to 100%. And just in time for the start of golf season.

★★★★★ — Kristy, Apr 2023

10 years of severe back pain! Chiropractic, physical therapy, yoga, MRI's, herniated disc L5/S1, NO surgery recommended during consultation. I'm out of ideas!! My wife said she's heard of this acupuncturist who has done wonders for people. I've been to acupuncture and it's like everything else.

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.
