From the reviews

My first time ever getting a massage and Lara was amazing. Her space is very calming and soothing. She is kind and very sweet makes you feel right at home. She is also extremely great with listening to her clients. To know the area of where they need work at the most. She is great at working out the kinks.

Iara is a deeply talented and attentive massage therapist. She creates a warm and inviting space, is thoughtful about every detail, and makes it very easy to communicate about massages preferences.

★★★★★ — Dalia, Jan 2022

I was so excited to finally have my first massage since before the pandemic began and would have been happy with a small child walking on my back. I did not expect to receive one of the best massages of my entire life (I am 47) and walk out of there in the most blissful state I have been in for a *very* long time.

★★★★★ — Katy, Jan 2022

Iara is magic! I came in for an 90 min massage after an episode of back spasms that left me sore and hunched. She was gentle and effective at working out some deep knots. That massage was the physical reset and emotional boost I needed. I’m so grateful and will absolutely be back. 1000% recommend.

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.
