★★★★★ — Rachel, Aug 2025

Kitty is incredibly skilled and every massage helps me feel that much better. She is utilizing a combination myofascial release and craniosacral (sp???) to help me post spinal fusion surgery and the resulting tightness and spasms. I cannot recommend Kitty highly enough!

★★★★★ — Janelle, Jul 2025

Pulled hip flexer, was in so much pain, couldn't stand, or walk but a few steps without excruciating pain, still no change after a week, and knew I was going to need major therapeutic massage.

★★★★★ — Justified, Oct 2024

A massage with Kitty Smith is truly an amazing experience. She is absolutely determined to make sure you get all that you need and more from your appointment with her. Kitty's knowledge and healing intuition allow her to be the most effective massage therapist I have ever visited.

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.
