★★★★★ — Tara, Jul 2024

Lara has such a healing touch. Each time I have had a massage from her I feel so much tension released. I walk away feeling lighter, happier, and thankful for the experience. I highly recommend booking a massage with her! She is professional and very good at what she does.

★★★★★ — Mataya, May 2025

Wow!! Lara is amazing. Her caring demeanor is obvious and genuine. The atmosphere is calming. That stuff is all nice but when it comes down to it the effectiveness of the massage treatment is what matters. I can only say wow. I’ve had a moderate amount of experience with massages.

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.
