I was referred to this practice by my pain management Dr. The minute i walked in to the door, i knew this was the right place for me. Instant calmness. The reception staff is wonderful! Maria, Ana, Daisy, are all exceptional! 95% of the time i can get an appointment the same day.

★★★★★ — Cheryl, Feb 2020

A Zen-like atmosphere with relaxing music a water feature and friendly staff welcomed me when I first walked in to Acupuncture and Herbs. I have nerve damage to my left side sciatica.

★★★★★ — Andrew, Jun 2022

Initially I did not believe in acupuncture. After suffering from sciatica, shoulder, back, and leg pain I needed something other than medication. I finally tried acupuncture as a last resort and have been receiving treatment for a few years now. I can’t stress how it relieved most of my pain and years of stress.

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.
