From the reviews

I’ve had accupuncture and cupping for ongoing lower back pain, definitely helping and feeling better. Alex is also very good at explaining the different techniques and benefits. Recommend 10/10

★★★★★ — Kimberly, Dec 2025

Dr Alex is amazing. Regular visits help me maintain my autoimmune disease with medication or surgery. Very confident in her abilities as a holistic practitioner. She is very kind and genuine. I look forward to working with her in the future. I feel so much better since I have started regular therapy with Alex.

★★★★★ — Michelle, Dec 2024

Amazing experience. As a practitioner of western medicine, Alex allows me to continue to learn about the art of medicine for my personal health. Alex is a great teacher and even better healer. My mind, body, and soul is forever grateful.

★★★★★ — Sean, Sep 2025

Alex is a gem. She helped me recover from a shoulder tear. No surgery. I will continue going to her to maintain care.

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.
