From the reviews

Amazing Results - Immediate Relief - PEMF For The Win!!! I would self describe as a maintenance technician and do-it-all handyman. I'm often on my feet, or in an agonizing crunched up position. I put my body through a lot.

I’ve been seeing Lynsey for over a year now, and every session has been such a grounding, healing experience. She’s an incredibly skilled and intuitive Maya Abdominal Therapist who truly listens not just to what I say, but to what my body needs.

★★★★★ — Ciana, Oct 2025

Ariel is a healer. I told her what was happening and i felt so much better. Usually i just say do whatever but when i told her more of what i was experiencing she really helped me feel better. She is very kind and excellent massage therapist. The place overall is good very relaxing helpful staff clean and peaceful.

My experience with Isthmus Wellness - in particular Tracey (acupuncturist) has been a great experience. I rarely write a review but I would be remiss if I didn’t write one now. I was in a lot of back pain, have neuropathy and was an acupuncture nonbeliever.

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.
