What clients say about the cupping here
“Thank you for nurturing a space that holds you as a whole and listens to you, especially when you come completely disappointed in Western medicine.”
“Golden Folk is such an asset to the neighborhood—walking in immediately calms me and upon walking out I always say something like, “I really needed that.”
From the reviews
A little piece of heaven on earth. I go to the Golden Folk to see Andrea the acupuncturist whom I can say (after 7 months) is some kind of magician healer. I have always been skeptical to everything, because there’s just too much out there and a lot of it, is just expensive and doesn’t work, unless you convince…
I've had a number of massages from Isabella. She is an intuitive and conscientious practitioner and you can tell she really cares about what she does and is in tune with her practice.
My first experience was very warm and competently executed. I was impressed with the feeling of generosity gentleness and precision in all of the work I received.
The Real Deal Golden Folk is the kind of place you envision in the ideal and then no matter how many times you’ve gone it’s somehow even better. Saying it’s transformative is not an exaggeration. The profound and subtle work permeates in ways I didn’t know possible and the healing from that is lasting and true.
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.
