From the reviews

…Using a combination of gentle and deeper pressure, cupping, and other techniques I'm unfamiliar with, Gwen coaxed my stiff, hard muscles into deep relaxation. I'm definitely planning to return for additional treatments. Highly recommend.

Gwen has magical hands and a passion for her craft. My wife and I are 50+ and very active. Many things hurt. Gwen also seems to have an approach to make things feel better. We have been friends and clients for several years. Make an appointment. You'll be back!!!!

Tatiana is simply amazing. After experiencing Lux, I refuse to go anywhere else in the capital region.

★★★★★ — Amanda, Jul 2025

I had a wonderful tuning fork sound healing session with Julie. I felt immediately at ease with her and she was very generous with explaining the process before and after the session. Plus, I feel amazing. I'll be back!

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.
