From the reviews

I have been a patient of Dr. Hsu-Li for almost two years, She has radically changed my life- not only before and after 2 full knee replacements- but, also in my overall health and well being. She is patient and really listens to her patients offering the best possible treatments. I cannot recommend her more highly.

★★★★★ — Laurence, Oct 2025

Dr. Hsu-Li has changed my life!! She is one of the most charismatic, personable people I have yet to encounter. Every treatment is personally tailored to how I am feeling and what I am in need of. She never misses a beat and remembers every detail from the last time we saw each other.

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.
