From the reviews

I needed a massage BAD! Very tight! I was able to book for the same day!! AND I got the most amazing 4 hands for 120 minutes!!! I also had cupping done at the same time. My goal was to walk out knot FREE! And I DID!! I would recommend this salon to anyone suffering! I’ll go back! Worth every penny!

My husband and I have gone here several times and had a great experience every time. We typically do the couples massage. It's nice to be in the same room. I love how the gals use their whole body for the massage. We find that the pressure is great and they ask if we need it adjusted.

First time to Lemon Massage and it was top notch! We did the harvest heart couples massage. Great ambiance, amazing staff and very reasonable prices! They also allow for easy appointment booking online as well as same day scheduling! We will definitely be back soon!

Just completed my first massage at Lemon Spa and it was incredible! CiCi did a fantastic job. She was very "intune" with how I was feeling and was very accurate at being able to pin point all of my problem areas! Thank you CiCi and thank you Lemon Spa!!

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.
