Marcella is amazing! She is very knowledgeable and professional, which made me feel extremely comfortable and at ease. Her intake is very thorough. She uses a variety of tools in her service like cupping, massage gun, muscle testing, stretching, and massage.

★★★★★ — Christina, Nov 2023

I had an amazing experience at So Called Fit & Massage Therapy. Marcella worked on me and she was absolutely incredible. From the moment the session started, she made me feel comfortable and took the time to understand exactly where I was feeling tension and tightness.

★★★★★ — Brandon, Feb 2026

Marcella is incredible! Her massage was both relaxing and relieving, and the private setting made it even better. You can tell she truly cares about her clients’ well-being. I highly recommend her and SoCal Fitness & Massage Therapy if you’re looking for quality care and results.

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.
