Why Massage Matters is listed — cupping is a treatment, not a Google category, so we only list a provider when there's real proof they offer it. Here's what we found: “cause I like the approach for both relaxation or recovery massages. I usually chose a recovery massage because I prefer more of a sports massage after a week of workouts. I also like the fact they don’t charge extra for cupping - I don’t…” source →

From the reviews

Close to home. Booking was easy. Emma at the front was super helpful. Better communication with patients about what they like and what is offered would help. I booked it for my wife’s Bday and she liked it but left desiring a more deep tissue type massage which I know they offer.

Robert and I went in for an 80-minute massage last night. Tiffany and Miranda were both awesome! THANK YOU!!! We’re so pleased with our experiences and joined their membership program. We’re excited and look forward to better health!

One of THE best massage experiences I've had in my life. All thanks to Davina 👏👏👏👏 Not only was she very delicate and thorough with this nasty back pain that resides on my right side scapula area, But she is extremely kind, Encouraging, And absolutely lovely to speak to.

★★★★★ — Keith, Feb 2026

I’ve been going to Massage Matters for a few months now, and it’s easily become a go-to for helping me recover from all the soreness and aches that come with regular kickboxing.

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.
