From the reviews

I had an amazing experience at Mellow Massage and can’t recommend it enough. My massage therapist, Antoine, was incredibly attentive, professional, and clearly very skilled. My restorative massage was exactly what my body needed, and he made sure I was comfortable the entire time.

I had a great experience at Mellow Massage at Pacific Beach. The space was open, clean and calming, and the massage was both therapeutic and relaxing. You can tell the practitioner (Chad) is knowledgeable and intentional with his work. The booking experience was smooth!

★★★★★ — Denisha, Feb 2026

I had the most amazing experience with Henry. He is so professional and knows so many massage techniques. I was in chronic back pain from being a competitive athlete, and had instant relief after my deep tissue massage. The atmosphere is wonderful!

★★★★★ — Sarah, Dec 2025

Mellow Massage was great! The convenience of booking online was easy. Check in was done via text and a QR code when you arrived. I booked an 80 minute massage with Lloyd. He was very professional with his massage and it truly was a deep tissue massage!

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.
