From the reviews

She is Amazing and Caring. The place is clean and lovely and she is an incredible technician. Massage. Cupping. Acupuncture. Colonic. Trust me. This is a great place to feel well with a relaxing atmosphere.

★★★★★ — Jm, Mar 2026

Every time I’m in LA this is my go to spot for healing and peace of mind. I suffer from lupus which often puts my body through the wringer, but Sarah’s healing hands and unquestionable knowledge of her craft brings my aching body back to a sense of balance and pain free normalcy that I haven't found anywhere else.

★★★★★ — Amanda, Jun 2024

Sarah is absolutely phenomenal - I typically don't write reviews, but I had to because she has been so supportive and made colon hydrotherapy so comfortable for me. This was my first time going and I'll definitely be coming back - she normalized the whole process which typically feels very strange and uncomfortable.

★★★★★ — Elbek, Jan 2024

I felt so amazing after my acupuncture session! Sarah is such a wonderful woman and expert in her field! I would highly recommend 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.
