From the reviews

Catherine gives an incredible massage! My neck and back really needed some attention and she listened to what I asked for and really worked on the areas that needed it. If I’m ever back in Portland I will definitely visit her again!

★★★★★ — Jessica, Mar 2025

Amazing. I feel incredible this morning after a really good nights sleep. Catherine really took her time working out the knots and adhesions that have developed from my work. I am a massage therapist and carpenter and She is my massage therapist. Feeling very grateful for her work, professionalism and friendship.

★★★★★ — Ramon, Nov 2020

My wife and I checked in during our annual Portland vacation for deep-tissue work. Catherine did not disappoint; we found her knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive to our special focus areas of muscle tension. Would return any time!

★★★★★ — Michael, May 2019

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.
