From the reviews

Went twice and one was amazing one was ok. Serena was incredible. Definitely recommend if she has a space open.

★★★★★ — Dayne, Oct 2025

I’ve been seeing Althea over the last year and she is fantastic. She is flexible with scheduling and attentive to what her clients are looking for each session. I always walk out thinking that I need to schedule sessions more regularly with her! Highly recommend.

★★★★★ — Crystal, Dec 2025

Althea is the bomb. I like that she's quiet and listens to you. The place is quiet as well, despite being located next to train tracks and a busy intersection.

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.
