Let me be the first to say that I didn't really believe much in acupuncture or cupping therapy. I was training for a marathon and decided to do a long run the night before I came to Arizona on a business trip. This was definitely a bad idea since I had to sit on a plane for hours on a business trip to AZ. By the time I had arrived, I was already in pain with a pulled muscle in my back.
I couldn't find a massage therapist nearby so I decided to give this place a try. I met with someone named Paul who walked me through cupping. I told him that I had never had it done but I would be willing to try anything to get rid of this pain.
I can only describe the experience in one word....awesome! I've had deep tissue massages which help but border on painful. This was still intense, but the results came pretty quickly. The tight muscle in my back started to loosen up as he moved the cups around.
I am now a believer!!!
I should be back in AZ in a few months and will definitely be back to try the acupuncture.
