From the reviews
I absolutely marveled in this experience from start to finish. When I walked in I felt like I was entering a space that dampened the outside world. The lighting was warm and welcoming and as someone who’d never had a message I felt immediately at ease when Victoria introduced herself and got me setup.
I had a great experience with Benjamin Hogan at Mellow. He was so professional and respectful that I felt completely at ease the entire time. What stood out most was how attentive and thoughtful he was.
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.
