From the reviews
Best massage around! Very attentive and the cupping is extraordinary
For 6 months I have had neck and back pain. I couldn’t look down to read a book. I couldn’t look behind me to back up my car without pain. I went to 2 chiropractors and would leave frustrated as I was still in the same amount of pain. I was recommended to visit Karith King.
Karith is an amazing massage therapist. She is very professional and keeps her space well maintained and clean. The ambiance was very relaxing. I felt extremely comfortable and at ease. She made sure to ask the right questions in order to know what I wanted to achieve from our session.
Karith was fantastic!! She is extremely skilled & professional & gave me the best massage I've had in years. The level of pain in my upper back & shoulder was about an 8 when I went to her. One day later it's maybe at a 1 or 2 and continuing to improve. Nuff said! :)
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.
