Heather is amazing. I really appreciate tgat she gets to know my body! Mark

★★★★★ — Mark, Mar 2026

I had an excellent experience at Intrepid Bodyworks and am very grateful to this team. Sarah, my acupuncturist, was incredibly informative and supportive. During the intake, she demonstrated a high level of attention to detail, catching important nuances and thoughtfully revisiting areas I had initially glossed over…

★★★★★ — Juliana, Dec 2025

My recent physical injury led me to Jennifer. She cares and she created a regime of medical massages therapy for my foot issues. I had a great experience with Jennifer! Jennifer helped me improve my chronic foot pain issue, which had been bothering me for some months before seeing her.

★★★★★ — Y, Apr 2024

For years, I searched for a place like Intrepid Bodyworks—a place truly dedicated to healing rather than just taking your money. I’m thrilled to say that with the care from Mariah, Jen, and my physical therapist, who values both targeted and full-body massage as vital to proper recovery, my body feels much better now…

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.
