From the reviews

JouAn did fire cupping on me today and I feel incredible. Her depth of knowledge around the mind–body connection is evident from the moment you walk in. I felt completely safe in her care. She’s kind, personable, and very easy to talk to, which made the entire experience both comfortable and grounding.

★★★★★ — Jordan, Feb 2026

A few weeks ago, I made an appointment with Texas acupuncture research Institute to assist in trying to smooth out my “turkeyneck” that I developed after losing some weight. Isabella was very professional and thoroughly explained everything to me.

★★★★★ — Molly, Apr 2025

This was my very first experience with acupuncture, and I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction than with Victor. From the moment I walked in, he made me feel completely safe, seen, and cared for.

★★★★★ — Megha, Apr 2025

I've been feeling bad for nearly two and a half years and we can't figure out why. I finally gave up and decided to try acupuncture as I have had positive results in the past. I cannot believe how well I feel today as a result of just one session with Erik and now two.

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.
