From the reviews

I’m so happy to have found Core Acupuncture. I had C5-C7 disc replacement at the beginning of the year. And since then, I had been attending physical therapy. But I had failed to make significant steps with my post-surgical recovery. So I decided to try acupuncture. I researched all the local providers.

★★★★★ — Stephanie, May 2026

Hi I cannot rave enough about how grateful I am that I discovered this place as cheesy as it may sound when I first stepped in the facility I thought, and felt like, I was in the right place.!! The ambience and energy in the building is very light and soothing.

★★★★★ — Rocio, Mar 2024

I'm so happy I came across this location. I've wanted to try acupuncture for a very long time, but I never had enough courage to do it. I discovered the office and website of Dr. Huh after conducting extensive research. I've read everything that I could find about his career, services, and biography.

★★★★★ — Leona, Jul 2022

I’ve had about 10 sessions here, and I can’t recommend this place enough. The facility is spotless, the staff are always on time, and rescheduling is super easy.

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.
