From the reviews

Melissa's space is very lovely - comfortable bed, nice blankets, soothing lighting - so that one is very at ease right away. But more important are her skills: I am usually in need of some very specific deep tissue work to solve tightness or soreness.

★★★★★ — L, Nov 2019

Melissa is absolutely polite & highly recommended for her massage expertise and overall technique. I do a ton of driving / spend time on the road. So I get tight & somewhat sore quiet often. She pinpoints my ‘trouble areas’ and I always feel much better after seeing her. The best!

All my pain and discomfort was gone she’s definitely a self care necessity and I recommend all to see her.

★★★★★ — Tasha, Apr 2024

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.
