From the reviews

Absolutely loved this place. Very good scenery. Relaxing music and the staff are really good at what they do. I’ve never felt more relaxed than my time here. Ever pain I was feeling was relieved and I felt refreshed afterwards. I definitely would recommend trying out Mellow if you’re ever in San Diego!

★★★★★ — Kona, Jan 2026

My first time coming here and I’m forcing myself to get into the habit of self care. Antoine was my masseuse. I told him I’m a hairdresser and needed more focus on my upper body and he did just that. Antoine has magic hands. Thank you so much. 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.
