From the reviews

My experience was good. I would say when you have a massage it should include aspects which will effect all your comfort senses. The overall take away was slightly disappointing. Especially considering the cost.

★★★★☆ — Deanna, Mar 2024

Carrie is so knowledgeable and does such a great job! I've been here a handful of times and highly recommend if you need a massage or dry cupping done.

★★★★★ — Macey, Apr 2026

I've been struggling with a pinched nerve in my lower back and chronic shoulder tension for months. It was affecting my sleep and daily activities. I finally decided to get a massage, and I'm so glad I found Michelle! Her massage was incredible.

★★★★★ — Melissa, Apr 2024

This massage was by far the most effective one I have ever had. I went in with significant tightness in my neck, shoulders and lower back.

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.
