Massage in Arcata

“I have been here twice and each experience was lovely. My first time was a lymphatic drainage massage and the second was a deep tissue massage with hot stones and a scalp massage. I have chronic pain and each visit changed my life for the better, I will definitely be back very soon.“

“I have struggled from severe migraines for 6 years now. I have tried almost everything and this has been the only thing to minimize the pain when a migraine does occur. For reference, I use to be bedridden for about 24 hours and now when one does occur, I still am able to go about my day with a manageable pain level. My migraines also aren’t as frequent as they use to be. Sylvia gives advice and always tells you exactly what she is doing and how it will help you and the body. Highly recommend Sylvia!“

“I always get amazing massages here and excellent service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Just had my first massage here and I am really impressed. The space is beautiful and even their punch cards are beautiful. All the practitioners are very kind and the woman who worked on me was very skillful. Loved her technique and pressure. Can't wait to come back!“

“I ? recommend Keaton at Whole Bloom Massage! She helped me so much — it can be so hard to find a truly great massage therapist, but Keaton isn’t just great, she’s amazing. Thoughtful, skilled, and genuinely caring. I’m so grateful to have found her!“

“My chiropractor told me to get a deep-tissue massage. We are both happy with the results! It was incredible! I've already made my next appointment! Thank you!“

“I visited Arcata from out of town and attended two different classes at Om Shala. Both were excellent! I signed up and paid for both online. The studio was spacious and peaceful. I hope to come back soon.“

“I've seen a few dozen massage therapists in the last ten years due to work injuries and wear and tear (probably over a 100 massage sessions) and I'd say Michelle is among the top three I've seen....the other two being up in Canada. She is friendly and has plenty of advice to point you in healing directions for your body and will definitely make you feel better after. If you are looking for a healing touch, look no further.“

“Very knowledgeable massage therapist. Have gone many times to Rachael for various injuries and aches and pain“

“Jamie’s intuitive touch brings a regenerative healing to me every time.
At the beginning of an appointment she checks in with the deeper areas of need, she asks if her pressure is adequate during the session and at the end gives gentle suggestions (drink water, lite stretches etc) to make the most of the relax/release work we’ve done together. She is beyond a 5 ✨“

“This is a well maintained building, they have a beautiful landscape of plants and most importantly they have an amazing acupuncturist.“

“MJ is an intuitive and gifted body worker. She is a gift to those whom she comes into contact with. I met MJ a year ago and my life has been even more blessed with her in it. She has changed my body in huge ways and helped me to release a lot of heavy trauma I have been carrying for many years. I will forever feel blessed and honored to know her and have her work her magic on my vessel. Thank you MJ for your compassion, intuitive gifts, and deep kinship I feel with you. ✨??“

“The multiple massages I and my partner have each received from Karina Santa Cruz have been truly excellent. I've been worked on by dozens of people with all kinds of skill levels and modalities and locales over twenty+ years (my back has been variously described by professionals as a car wreck and sheet metal with gravel in it) and feel comfortable calling Karina's a special set of magic hands. It's not just her hands, of course, it's her. She comes to the work with the kind of depth and breadth of practice that shows up in surprising and healing ways. She's got power moves! Many skilled therapists kinda do the same thing on every one they meet, which can work out fine, but Karina immediately attuned to what was going on with me and took some chances that released pain in my shoulder that had become crippling in intensity. I remain in her debt. YMMV of course but totally worth going anywhere for talent this good. Thank you Karina! So grateful for you!!“

“I recently had the pleasure of receiving a massage from Erin at the Waters Edge. It was such a soothing and relaxing experience. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere she created was calming and intentional.
Erin brings a deeply intuitive and holistic approach to her work, connecting with the whole being rather than just solely focusing on isolated areas of the body.

Her mindful touch was gentle yet purposeful, and her ability to energetically tune in made the session deeply nurturing.

If you’re looking for a massage that helps you feel more connected, balanced, and relaxed, I highly recommend her services. She’s a truly gifted therapist.?“

“This is an understated little massage school in a neighborhood setting. There are one or two massage rooms and then a large open area for the school. I live in the SunnyBrae / Bayside area, so this is an exciting find. I've received four different massages at this establishment and all have been very good. Sophia is particularly amazing, she practices side-lying massage, (along with deep tissue, Swedish, and other modalities), which is really great for many reasons but for my neck and shoulder challenges, it really has been helpful. This technique helps with tight hips and shoulders. She stretches & lengthens tight joints and muscles and it feels fantastic. It is so easy to go online and make an appointment for the next day. I love the ease of appointment making and you can pre-pay so you don't have to deal with money at your appointment. Also, you can use your credit card and they do not charge an extra 3% like other establishments locally that offermassage. The simplicity of this place, its affordability and quality makes it a hidden gem. I highly recommend checking it out.“

“Emily has been helping me with a shoulder injury and I have felt so much better. It is complicated and involves part of my back, but she is so knowledgeable and makes me feel like I am in excellent hands. I highly recommend her!“

“What a hidden gem in Arcata! I highly recommend coming here for waxing. Very professional, spotlessly clean, and the space has a beautiful aesthetic. Chelsea was on time, professional, polite, and the music and vibe was on point. I will definitely be coming back. Thank you again Chelsea!“

“Jamie has been my massage therapist or over a decade and is one of the best in the area from my experience. He not only knows his stuff and how to find spots that you need worked on, but he is also quite strong and able to go deep if that’s what you need.Highly recommended!“

“Master Corey Lewis and his staff are like a family. They listen to the students and their families. Always a positive atmosphere. Encouraging you every step of the way. I highly recommend Sun Yi's Academy of Tae Kwon Do to everyone in our community. Everyone is welcome there. Please Come and Check them out you will for your own eyes just how awesome Sun Yi's really is.“

“This man is strong yet gentle and aware of another's needs. His intuition and level of care is top notch. Wesley has patience and perseverance to achieve relief and release. I've gone to him for deep tissue and trigger point therapy for over 10 years. He is by far my favorite person to receive a massage from. I'm glad the community of Arcata has the opportunity to receive his healing touch.“
