From the reviews

This is a long-overdue review! I've been receiving acupuncture and herbal medicine treatment from Ivy on a weekly/biweekly basis for about two years, and my spouse has been receiving treatment from her for about one year.

★★★★★ — Stephanie, Jun 2025

There are tons of options for acupuncture treatment in SF and Oakland. I've been to many acupuncturists, what sets Ivy apart and makes her best compared to others is the high level of holistic care. Ivy is concerned with both your physical and emotional health, which are so connected to how your body feels.

★★★★★ — Marvin, Nov 2019

The space has a very calming and thoughtfully designed atmosphere. Misa gave me an 80-minute deep tissue massage that was both soothing and intense due to the many deep knots she worked on. She clearly knew what she was doing—each stroke felt purposeful and effective.

★★★★☆ — Snigdha, May 2025

"Luminae Wellness" is a beautiful, magickal space of healing, nourishment, transformation, and gentle medicine for the soul. Ivy Lee is a true healer, in every meaning of the word. I do not say this lightly.

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.
