From the reviews
I had the best massage of my entire life yesterday and everyone needs to hear about it! I’ve been a monthly massage person for the last 20 years. I prefer to commit to a regular person who knows me and my body, but struggled to find a regular massage therapist after mine moved.
Although I usually use my own ice tub which is a bit colder, this was a great alternative as my ice tub was out of commission for repair. I called last minute and was told they had no openings for the day. They took my number and called me later to squeeze me in. So professional and caring.
I had a massage with kathleen today Let me tell you i HIGHLY RECOMMEND booking with her. I told her my problem area and she really took her time to get the knots out. They offer other services. Great location, easy to find and super friendly. Book your next massage with Kathleen.
I have been a client of Megan for well over 5 years and can’t imagine ever going elsewhere for a massage. She is talented, caring and always knows how to keep me feeling great. It is rare to find someone like Megan that cares so much about her clients.
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.
