From the reviews

Tamara is amazingly talented, knowledgeable and helpful. I've been seeing her for a few years and the relief following the days afterwards is wonderful. I hadn't found anything to help for my fibromyalgia. But after receiving a few Myofascial Release therapy sessions, I was able to cut back on my medicine.

★★★★★ — Maria, Feb 2022

Words cannot describe how thankful I am for Tammy and her healing techniques! Not only is she a wonderful healer but such an incredible person. I have received numerous massages from her to: help me get pregnant, relieve pain, relieve anxiety.. and each time I walk out feeling fresh, accomplished and can walk lighter.

★★★★★ — Lindsey, Oct 2017

Tamara was amazing! I left the appointment feeling refreshed and relaxed. I felt totally comfortable and at home with her and in her space. Any time I’m in town I’ll be scheduling an appointment! Thanks again and look forward to seeing you again!

★★★★★ — Cathy, Jul 2023

I love Tammy. Have been going to her for several years now, regularly. She has an intuitive eclectic style that I know assists with keeping me holistically healthy. A great massage therapist and so much more than a massage therapist.

★★★★★ — Kathryn, Jul 2023

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.
