Ventura · By Travel Arrangement

Diagnostic and therapeutic cupping with Dante Dorris, LMT. Performed as part of a sports bodywork session — every mark is data on what the tissue underneath is doing. Available to Ventura-area clients by travel arrangement from Los Angeles.

Who It's For
  • Athletes carrying chronic soft tissue restriction
  • Clients training through compensation patterns
  • Anyone curious about cupping who wants it done by a Licensed Massage Therapist, not a spa technician
  • Performers and athletes who need maximum recovery effect from a single session
What to Expect
  • Assessment of where the tissue is restricted and why
  • Cupping integrated into a full sports massage — static, sliding, or flash technique as indicated
  • Manual therapy alongside the cupping for a combined effect
  • Notes on what the marks indicate and what to do about them
Cupping · Ventura
Why Tey

One practitioner. Both licenses. Full continuity.

  • Licensed Massage Therapist using cupping clinically — not as a standalone treatment but integrated with manual therapy.
  • Reads cupping marks as diagnostic information. Mark color, distribution, and fade rate inform the next session's strategy.
  • Combines cupping with Graston, fascial work, and assisted stretching where indicated — never one tool in isolation.
  • Trained in soft tissue work for athletes specifically. Cupping in Tey's hands is performance medicine, not a wellness add-on.
Pricing & Travel

Cupping is included in any bodywork session ($100 for 30 min up to $300 for 120 min, plus travel to Ventura) — not priced as a standalone modality. Request it specifically when booking. Training-package clients get one complimentary 60-min bodywork and 20% off additional bodywork.

Sessions are paid in full by private link after a short fit call. Travel fees apply for Ventura-area sessions — quoted up front before your first appointment.

Frequently asked
No. Cupping creates a strong pulling sensation, not a sharp or painful one. Most clients describe it as intense pressure relief — similar to deep tissue massage in reverse. There is sometimes a brief, sharper sensation when a cup is first placed on a particularly restricted area, but it lasts seconds and the release that follows is what people come back for.
