From the reviews

I will recommend John to everybody!! He does not shy away from applying as much pressure(as you are comfortable with) to really alleviate pain and provide lasting relief. Immediately, I felt more comfortable in my body than I have in so long.

★★★★★ — Mariah, Feb 2026

I’ve had lower back issues for several years, and had a very severe flare up Sunday morning. Dale was fantastic, and I highly recommend him, especially if you’re a musician like I am. He understood where and what muscles needed to be released, and as a drummer that sat a LOT last week, it was well worth the price.

★★★★★ — Charles, Jun 2026

I have been seeing John for close to 2 years. He has really helped with some Back issues and shoulder mobility. Great to work with and very accommodating and helpful!

★★★★★ — Bernie, Jun 2026

John was awesome! He was very informative and addressed everything needed to help improve any issues I have. Looking forward to continuing my sessions.

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.
