From the reviews
…Ones I can specifically speak to from my session; roller bed, pin and stretch, and cupping. All of which were used effectively and in a way that pinpointed specific issues that I was having.
Stephen does amazing work! I felt so comfortable and relaxed throughout my whole visit and he was able to work through a lot of tight/sore muscles. I will definitely be coming back.
10/10.Helped me with a rib and shoulder injury. I told him my rib was very tender, and Stephen was very cautious of that specific area. and worked around it without pain- will come regularly!
Outstanding experience! Stephen is professional and truly listens to your concerns so he can provide the BEST therapeutic services. Very knowledgeable!
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.
