From the reviews
I saw Piya three days ago and I'm still feeling the benefits of her help. It's remarkable to find someone who is so compassionate and so knowledgeable - genuinely committed to helping people feel better by addressing root causes of issues.
I wish I could explain Piya's calming presence in words. The space for Moonchild Thai Spa is lovely. It is a small, quiet space with gentle music. The lights are dim, and the noise from the street is barely audible. The parking is easy once you figure it out! You must be able to walk up stairs to arrive there.
I had my first-ever massage at Moonchild Thai Spa and it was incredible. Piya is amazing—her technique, deep knowledge of anatomy, and genuine care made the experience feel like my body was floating. The space is calming, the traditional Thai music set the mood, and the hot ginger tea at the end was the perfect touch.
Piya is a gifted therapist. She has healed me in many ways and I am grateful to know her. I have had MANY massages over 20 years and Piya is special. She is quickly able to read your body and work on the area needed expertly with compassion. Her talent is a gift that is hard to put into words.
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.
