From the reviews

I have received cupping services and massage from Melissa. Though I now live some distance from her, I would visit regularly if I was local. Her soothing and calming energy were very welcome and I was able to put other concerns to the side while I was in her care.

★★★★★ — Janelle, Oct 2019

…Melissa is highly skilled with needles, cupping, herbs, massage, and more. She listens deeply and has such a loving presence. I absolutely recommend her!

★★★★★ — Greta, Jan 2020

I was so sick on my wedding day, I couldn't even stand up. Melissa saved the day! She made me feel at ease right away, even though I am very nervous about needles. Her treatment was gentle and effective, and I was able to enjoy the day I had spent so much time planning.

★★★★★ — Rachel, Oct 2019

71 years old and I have constant lower back pain that sometimes keeps me from being as active as I'd like. One treatment from Melissa and I was able to do some backpacking and hiking that I doubted I'd be able to do....and I did it pain free!

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.
