First visit $95, 75 minutes
Neck and shoulder tension usually comes from muscles held in one position too long, often made worse by stress. Acupuncture and cupping help those muscles let go.
What it feels like
Stiffness turning your head, a knot at the top of the shoulders, a headache that starts at the base of the skull.
How we help
Needles at the neck, shoulders and hands, cupping along the upper back, and a short breathing routine for tense days.
Common questions
Will cupping leave marks? Often, yes. Round pink or purple marks fade in three to seven days.
