From the reviews

Was not sure what to expect being my first session but WOW. Kweku took his time to create a comfortable space to dive down into what my specific needs were. I’m very happy to find a self care service that truly takes the weight off my shoulders and allows me to relax. 10/10 will be returning regularly.

This place is tranquil, serene, + relaxing... You can sense a deep connection to Spirituality in the space-- as well as through the bodywork done here.. There's healing happening within these walls that remains true to ancient roots- My therapist is Kweku & I would recommend him to anybody.

★★★★★ — M., Apr 2025

My first experience with this type of body work. Naad paid attention to everything I told him about my history. He's very knowledgeable and calming in his spirit. I look forward to the next appointment.

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.
