From the reviews

…She suggested cupping red light therapy and acupuncture. 60+ minutes later; I reemerged physically feeling the relaxation and relief in my face neck lower back hips and yes even then one spurs in my feet 👣 This was all done due to a very thorough intake; she hit every area mentioned.

★★★★★ — Kelly, Feb 2025

…I’ve also had massages, cupping treatments, and tried herbal remedies from Willow & Elm — each one has contributed meaningfully to my well-being. It’s rare to find a practitioner as open, generous, and deeply knowledgeable as Dr. Courtney.

★★★★★ — Eric, Apr 2025

…I love her acupuncture, cupping, and gua sha - and really anything she has to offer. I look forward to every appointment and consider them to be my special healing time for me - as a mom of three daughters, working full time and still on cancer meds, I need a few moments (we all do!) Dr.

★★★★★ — Kimberly, Feb 2024

…I had acupuncture and cupping done and I felt comfortable the whole time. She explained what she was doing and why, made sure I felt comfortable, and went above and beyond to make my visit a wonderful experience! Her practice is clean, bright, and welcoming.

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.
