From the reviews

Went here for the first time today. Gallie was the LMT I saw and I am blown away. I have NEVER left a massage with 0 back pain before (for context I have Fibromyalgia) but today I left with no pain.

★★★★★ — Megan, Sep 2025

Angie is absolutely the best! I couldn’t ask for a more thorough massage therapist. She is very attentive to your needs. Deep tissue is my preferred and cupping is a great additive.

★★★★★ — Todd, Nov 2025

Gallie is truly a gift. Every session with him feels like more than just a massage — it’s a restorative experience for both body and mind. He has such a calming presence and a genuinely kind spirit that immediately puts you at ease.

★★★★★ — Claire, Apr 2025

Lo was so intuitive and knew exactly what I needed without me having to tell her. She took my bodily cues, and responses to know when to stay longer, or give more pressure. One of the best massages I’ve had in my life. And I felt so safe and comfortable 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.
