From the reviews
My experience at Altus was awesome! The space is very relaxing and vibes are good. Braylynn did an amazing job, she really listened to my preferences and problem areas and took extra care to work out the tension in my shoulders and back. I left feeling so good and am still feeling great days later! Highly recommend
Amazing! What a lovely experience! The space was welcoming and clean. I booked this on a lark because I had time for it! Probably...not really, but I made time for it because my knots have knots and Lottie was wonderful! (I seriously felt like crying I was so happy.)
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.
