From the reviews
I was super impressed by Carlie’s knowledge and technique. She really found the places that were in need and worked on them with intention. Her flow was incredible I never felt that there was a break off or a missed place.
Just had my second session with Carlie, and am blown away by the quality of her practice. The level of intention she puts into personalizing your sessions according to your specific needs and desires is unparalleled, from the intake form, to pre-bodywork, to during session and afterwards.
Carlie is an amazing therapist. Her attention to detail and intentional touch is unmatched. She obviously put a ton of time and effort into her space which is very calming and easy to relax in. Her pre check in was thorough and allowed me to feel taken care of.
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.
