From the reviews

This was my first experience with Accupuncture, I was not sure what to expect but Dr. Choi helped me thru the process. He explained every step which made me comfortable . I was apprehensive of little needles but he took that fear out of me by being really gentle. Thank you Dr Choi.

Effective and efficient. I booked an appointment and was contacted immediately as a followup. I was given a thorough initial consultation and was treated that day; all subsequent appointments have begun on time. The office is clean, comfortable and quiet with ample parking right by the door.

★★★★★ — Phyllis, Mar 2026

I contacted Dr. Choi with issue with my shoulder, which I have had for number of months. He suggested to do the first treatment right away. I agreed and do not regret at all. After the fist treatment I start feel much better. Dr.Choi is real professional, attentive, caring about patients.

★★★★★ — Elena, Feb 2026

I am thrilled with cranial sacral therapy sessions with Lan Gao. These sessions made a big difference in how i feel and very quickly addressed the symptoms. Lan is very knowledgeable professional. Highly recommend her!

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.
