From the reviews

…I enjoyed hot stones and (for the first time) cupping-HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Next across the hall tor a very enjoyable and informative mini facial with Sidney. I left the venue feeling relaxed and rejuvenated, again, HIGHLY RECOMMEND AWAKEN!!!

★★★★★ — Janis, Jan 2026

I got a 90 minute deep tissue massage with cupping and hot stones! So relaxing and the pressure was perfect! I had Kelly and I highly recommend! I’d never had cupping before and she walked me through everything and it was an awesome experience! Definitely will be going back!

★★★★★ — Abby, May 2026

…I opted out of cupping, but that’s also a no charge option if you’re interested. I’ll admit I was a tad nervous about the microchanneling. I thought it might hurt. I was happily surprised to find it wasn’t the least bit painful.

★★★★★ — Haleigh, Jan 2026

…The package we booked came with a lot of complimentary additions too like hot stones and cupping! An unexpected but welcome treat. I will certainly be booking again.

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.
