From the reviews

Jo is hands-down one of the most knowledgeable, courteous, and respectful masseuses that I've encountered. Her ability to assess and remedy issues that you encounter is uncanny. She uses a plethora of techniques during the sessions. I recommend her to everyone who is dealing with stress or pain.

★★★★★ — B, Dec 2021

Jovina is the best! I have gone other places but always come back to her. I have dealt with back issues for years and Jovina has really helped me work out some long term pain. The space is private and quiet. It’s all I can do to not fall asleep in her table! I recommend her to everyone.

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.

Cupping isn't for everyone — if you're on blood thinners, pregnant, or have a skin condition or bleeding disorder, check with your doctor first, and always tell your practitioner about health concerns before a session. This page is directory information, not medical advice.
