What clients say about the cupping here
“She suggested that I return without any pressure - and I felt much better when I left.”
“For starters, everyone I interacted with was super professional, caring, and so nice and kind.”
“The practitioners took the time to ask questions and dive into the specifics of my issues and only then proposed a course of treatment that was remarkably effective.”
“Justine was kind and understanding asking gentle questions as I described my injury- the work she did on my shoulder was very helpful.”
“It was my first time working with her and she really helped me!”
From the reviews
…Justine administered the treatments (acupuncture, light message, and some cupping), and she has expert knowledge and is very skilled. Just awesome. It is too early for me to tell if the acupuncture worked for me as I just wen there today, but when Justine was done with me, I felt amazing. The treatment was so relaxing.
…I had acupuncture and cupping and both were awesome. Relaxing, relieving, and somehow energizing at the same time. I will definitely go again!
…She was immediately able to identify the problem and we did accupuncture, infrared heat, and cupping. She also recommended products to help. I am feeling MUCH better today and will definitely be returning! Thanks Lauren!!!
My session with Lauren was incredibly grounding and restorative. From the start, I could feel my energy settling and flowing more naturally — nothing dramatic, just a steady shift into ease. As the session progressed, areas of tension gently released and everything felt smoother and more balanced throughout my body.
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.
