What clients say about the cupping here
“I've been fortunate to have Melissa as a massage therapist help help reduce pain and increase mobility in my shoulder, back and arms.”
“If you are blessed enough to be a client of Melissa's, you will be thoroughly satisfied with your massage.”
“One of the things I appreciate the most is their ability to be in the moment with the needs of my body; both of these women are phenomenal listeners to the body and support accordingly.”
“She makes me feel comfortable and checks in on me to make sure everything feels good/if any muscle needs to be worked on more.”
“She is so skilled in what she does and she’s so warm and welcoming.”
From the reviews
You don’t know me, but trust this—if you're dealing with back or sciatic pain, RUN (don’t walk) to book an appointment with Eric Boone. I struggled for three months with debilitating sciatic pain, and after just one visit, I regained 70% of my mobility in my hip.
I've been a long time client of Moonshadow and can't imagine going anywhere else. Melissa, the owner, has kept me as pain-free as I can get for quite a few years. Her training, knowledge, intuition and talent are phenomenal.
Moonshadow has helped me with all my physical health needs over the years. No matter what the problem is, they have a specialist who can resolve it. Currently, I am seeing Amanda who is amazing! She quickly identified my trouble spots and underlying issues, and began working to bring that back into alignment.
I was referred to Moonshadow to receive medical massage after a breast cancer diagnosis and single mastectomy. I have been working with Kelly and Cynthia there for just over a year now and have been beyond pleased with the top level of unique support I receive each time for my body both physically and energetically.
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.
