This place was just as advertised. Welcoming, warm and very relaxing. I have not had "cupping" done to me but my wife swears by it. She comes home looking like a turtle with all the round suction marks all up and down her back. I don't know what it really does for you health wise but it sure does feel good and is very relaxing. I think I slept through most of it. The woman that did mine had a very relaxing way about her and a very soft and soothing voice. This was a great way to spend an afternoon together and it was worth every penny. Wellness is a way of life for these people and it really shows. I highly recommend the Wellness Institute. I really should do this kind of self care more often. We all should. read more
