★★★★★ — Jayebird, Aug 2014

I've been going to Whole Body Healing for years! I see Liz and she does such amazing work. She's incredibly educated and certainly shows in my results from treatment. Absolutely would recommend, especially if you are a first time visitor to acupuncture. The environment is welcoming and the beds are so relaxing.

★★★★★ — Lisa, Feb 2022

I have going to Liz for about 3 months now. I am always in pain when i walk in and a hour later i walk out of her office a new man. The pains that i had in my neck and shoulder are gone. She is the Best i have ever been treated by and would recommend her to anybody who is in pain

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.
