From the reviews
Nicole is amazing! She has a warm and friendly personality and is a professional and skilled massage therapist. I've been going to her over the years for different services and every service I've tried I was very happy with and felt relaxed and renewed.
Wendy and Nicole are absolutely wonderful. Their friendliness and attention to clients' needs made me feel so comfortable. I received some of the best massages of my life at Back-2-Balance and have highly recommended their services to those who are looking for an excellent massage for a great value.
Fantastic massage and amazing atmosphere. Wendy and Nicole are knowledgeable and considerate in their sessions. They have an amazing gift for healing and a beautiful space to allow it. I left feeling completely rejuvenated after weeks of pain. Would highly, highly recommend.
Nicole took care of my pain in my back that I have had over 10 years and have been to every specialist there was and with regular message she has given me back my quality of life.
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.
