From the reviews

Melisa at Soulshine is amazing. She is well practiced in a variety of techniques and modalities, and has done a great job in relieving a bunch of stubborn problem areas I've had. Just feel like a million dollars after leaving the studio, and all stress relieved. Highly recommend!

★★★★★ — Laura, Oct 2024

Monica was awesome. I tried calling some of the bigger, fancier places only to have them not reply. Monica got my wife in the very next day. She did one heck of a job, place was extremely clean and she was beyond nice! To bad it doesn’t go to ten stars because she deserves it! 🤗

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.
