What clients say about the cupping here
“They don’t just glide over sore spots—they understand how the body is connected and know how to access deeper, harder-to-release tension safely and effectively.”
“If you are looking for a skilled therapeutic massage to address chronic pain or just to treat yourself, I can't recommend Katie O'Neill at Written on the Body Massage enough.”
“You can tell the therapists are truly listening—to your body, your feedback, and what’s happening in the moment—rather than following a preset routine.”
“Kind, Gentle and Intuitive, is what resonated in my body about the skillful use of cranial sacral techniques used in my session with Adrienne.”
“The space itself is calm, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed, making it easy to relax the moment you arrive.”
From the reviews
Andrew saved me with a last minute opening after I pulled a muscle in my neck. Wonderfully therapeutic massage and excellent communication 🩷 Updating my review to say I was in a motor vehicle accident and Katie Jayne has taken care of not only all the insurance logistics but gone above and beyond to offer the most…
Katie JAYNE (Selin) = 10/10 recommend! If you’re someone who works on a computer, holds your stress in your neck, upper back, shoulder blades and/or you have issues with your SI. Look no further!!
I cannot recommend Katie O'Neill at Written on the Body Massage highly enough! I recently went in for a therapeutic deep tissue massage, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Katie has incredible mastery of her craft.
I recently had a massage with Katie Jayne Selin that totally reset my body and mind. She communicates very well, making you feel comfortable and ensuring your massage goals are achieved.
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.
