From the reviews

I had amazing experience trying Medical Thai massage with cupping for the first time. Charles was amazing and definitely helped me release pain and discomfort on my tight muscles! The combination of cupping and stretching techniques definitely helped. I feel so much better after the session. Highly recommended.

★★★★★ — Joy, Mar 2025

I’ve been here a few times and every time I go I come out feeling amazing and today I tried the Medical Thai Massage Cupping and it was great! I went for my back pain and stiffness in my shoulders and honestly I recommended this service. It helped a lot I feel the difference. 100% recommend to check them out.

★★★★★ — Chris, Nov 2024

On 10/23/23 I received and absolutely amazing massage from Nina. She was efficient and effective. The massage parlor was clean near and tidy. I’ve never had a massage previously and was blown away. More than a day after my massage my back is feeling loose and relaxed and my stress level is significantly diminished.

★★★★★ — Nick, Oct 2023

I had a 75 min deep tissue massage with Diamond and thoroughly enjoyed it. Out of the 75 mins, there was minimal downtime (e.g., getting new towels, washing hands), about 70% of the time she pressed into sore spots for me.

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.
