From the reviews

Sarah is one of the most knowledgable and effective massage therapists I've ever had. I've seen her for both basic stress relief and more serious sports injuries, and she was amazingly effective with both. The space is very comfortable and welcoming.

★★★★★ — Kasey, Feb 2021

I must say that this was probably the best massage that I have ever had! Sara was super professional and absolutely covered all of the bases with the Covid precautions. But the best part was the strength in her seemingly small hands. I had a 1.5 hour massage and her strength didn't waver.

★★★★★ — Amy, Jun 2021

Just had a 90 minute massage with Tara, she was simply amazing. My first experience with her and this facility. She applies deep strong pressure which is exactly what i wanted/needed. My back feels 10x better and i felt very comfortable with her the whole time.

★★★★★ — Dizease, Mar 2024

I have been having chronic hip, gluten and back pain that has kept me from sleeping well and doing a lot of the things I enjoy. I had 1 90 minute deep tissue session with Tara and I feel amazing! I have been to chiropractors, many massage therapists, physical therapy and the likes.

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.
