From the reviews

I am blown away by my treatment from Andy. I had a 60min massage, but really wished I had done the 90min. The last time I had a 90min massage(not from Andy) I think I fell asleep, so I erred on the side of caution and went with 60. I get a massage every month, just about.

★★★★★ — Nami, Aug 2019

Andy is THE BEST. She is intuitive and tapped in, and uses very specific and effective movements and tools. Her overall massage technique can include cupping, which is painful for me, but I know is doing a lot of good.

★★★★★ — Kerry, Oct 2020

I've been receiving body work from Andy for as long as she has been in practice (16+ years?) and she is by far my favorite massage therapist. She is skilled, in tune with clients' needs and responses, professional, warm and skilled.

★★★★★ — Maren, Apr 2022

Amazing massages! Andy creates a holistic treatment plan to heal your whole body, not just problem areas. After two sessions, I was relieved of persistent pain I have had for several years. Every session is different yet you always leave feeling great. I strongly recommend booking time with her!

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.
