From the reviews

Love coming to get treatment with Judy. We book our acupuncture with Judy, she’s the absolute best. She does so good with my kiddos and despite my terror for needles she makes the process calm and easy to handle. We leave feeling our best. My boys are athletes and she helps them recover and treats any concerns.

I came to Uptown Wellness Center with chronic tendon pain that just wouldn’t go away. After trying other treatments with little success, Dr. Arno recommended Shockwave Therapy. I can honestly say the results have been incredible.

★★★★★ — Michelle, Sep 2025

I have been going to uptown wellness center for about three years, where I have had massage therapy and chiropractic treatments. I'm completely satisfied with all the care I've received.

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.
