I've have never had cupping before and wasn't sure what to expect. I'd been suffering from sciatic nerve pain for almost a month. I had been to a chiropractor and had been taking 1200mg of gabapentin a day but there had been little to no relief. Lisa only had time for a 30min session and said she was going to try cupping. I was completely pain free after only 30min. I am now a believer it was incredible. If you are experiencing pain, Lisa can help you to become pain free.

Lisa was very patience with all my questions. She is very knowledgeable and takes continuing education, in which I think is very important. As I have a hard time relaxing, Lisa made me feel very welcome with her professionalism. As I want to decreased my anxiety, improve my lymph flow and circulation, sleep better and recover quicker from my workouts, Lisa is a good addition to my health regime.
