From the reviews

…We decided on a tabletop massage that incorporated deep tissue techniques, cupping, hot stones, and essential oils—and it exceeded every expectation. The massage itself was incredibly meticulous and highly individualized.

★★★★★ — Kellie, Jan 2026

I have been helped tremendously by Sophia with a series of appointments targeting leg, wrist, and neck chronic pain. Not only is Sophia highly skilled, but she also delivers knowledgeable and carefully directed therapy to affected areas. She is diligent and relentless.

★★★★★ — Michael, Jan 2026

Sophia was very responsive and able to get me in quickly when I was in extreme pain. She was very kind and skilled. I left being able to move more and will most definitely recommend to friends and be returning more regularly! Location is a total hidden gem but is very clean and relaxing environment!

★★★★★ — Macy, Jun 2025

Wow!! Had an hour of back work… I feel so much better! She worked out knots I didn’t know I had. A bit sore afterwards but very much needed! I will def be going back. Location is in back of building.

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.
