From the reviews

I received a 90 minute customized massage from Caylea and it was probably the best massage I’ve ever gotten. I’ve had neck pain for months nonstop and she did some deep pressure work on my back, shoulders, neck, traps as well as cupping therapy and my neck feels better than it has in months.

Sam was my massage therapist and she did an incredible job. She suggested cupping so I tried that for the first time and it seemed to loosen me up. She came to us as well which was really nice to do it at our rental for convenience. Excellent job

★★★★★ — Tony, May 2026

I've had two massages with Caylea, and I'm very happy. She is professional, knowledgeable about her stuff, and gives you the space you need during massage. I wanted to just connect with myself during the massage, and she accommodated by keeping silence. I really appreciated that.

Caylea is the best! Super knowledgeable, tailors each massage to your current needs, and creates the most peaceful, relaxing experience overall. Go see her for any massage or sports recovery needs!

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.
