From the reviews

I have been a patient of Dr. David Buscher's for over 5 years and he is a healer! I tried a few other acupuncturists but David was the perfect fit. He is always educating himself on the art and science of his practice.

★★★★★ — M, Feb 2024

Dr. David is a CHAMPION! He is more than a health practitioner. He champions his clients to get very well! Love you Dr. David for TODAY for holding sacred space for me and being witness to my breakthrough. You were perfect!

★★★★★ — Latonia, Dec 2019

Dr. David is professional, respectful and in tune with his patient care. He serves many populations but I have extreme respect for his ability to take Veteran referrals from the VA commonly! That’s how I became familiar with his services. I have been seeing Dr.

★★★★★ — Brandon, Nov 2025

Dr. David Buscher, D.Ac. is magician, a gift to his patients in Baltimore. I've been his patient for over 5 years. He is a gifted healer, professional, well respected and an outstanding practitioner in Chinese medicine and acupuncture. Most recently, I booked an appointment after I threw out my back.

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.
