Adam and team treated me so well. I lost my fiance recently and their kindness and empathy was amazing. Always such a great experience but to have shown me such support and just what I needed. Thank you always an amazing experience. Blessings to you!!!!

Absolutely the best pedicures my wife and I have ever experienced! We did the full couple's pedicures in the couple's room. Sarah & Jen are both amazing at the experience they provide! You simply have to try this for yourself to fully understand what true luxury indulgence is at a spa.

★★★★★ — Chad, Jun 2025

I had a HydraFacial with Natalie in Cedar Rapids and it was such an amazing experience! She took the time to really understand my skin and what it needs. She asked thoughtful questions and made sure she was giving me the most out of my service. You can tell she truly cares about her clients and their results.

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.
