From the reviews

…My session included cupping, fascial scraping (my first time!), and intentional, thoughtful bodywork that actually made a noticeable difference. I walked in tight and walked out feeling right lol “Touch with Intention” isn’t just a cute phrase - it’s a whole vibe that’s definitely worth experiencing.

★★★★★ — Geannet, Feb 2026

…I experienced glass fire cupping which I admit was a very new and a bit scary idea for me but was thoughtfully applied and tended to. They were very consistent with pressure and their flow. I felt that my aches and pains were addressed each time. I have my next session booked and looking forward to it.

★★★★★ — J., Feb 2026

…As an athlete I also appreciate that there are cupping and scrapping add ons too.

★★★★★ — Jennifer, Apr 2026

JoJo's healing hands are very helpful with releasing major tension stored in the body. They are incredibly knowledgeable about the central nervous system and finding where exactly the body holds its trauma to pinpoint certain areas that can be released holistically.

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.
