“Brooke is an amazing massage therapist! I always do a 30 minute stretch and 1.5 hr massage. She’s strong and really gets into my tight muscles but is somehow gentle at the same time. My body feels great long after my visit with her. She really knows the body and exactly what to do to bring you relief. Her space is clean and her table is always cozy and inviting. I highly recommend Brooke!“
“Sheer and utter bliss! During a 10 day road trip which included tons of hiking we decided to book the couples massage at the Spa by the Sea. It was transformative for me. Laurie is exceptionally gifted and as a LMT of over 25 years I know talent when I find it. She has a gift and it goes to her very core. My body felt honored and restored and my mind was calmed and focused. Jamie worked on my partner in crime (and adventure) and while he is not as experienced as me or has the background to know things the way I KNOW them; he was very happy and relaxed. He was very appreciative of her style even if he can’t put his finger on why. Tiffany (owner) was so great with communication. Finally, the location was amazing. We finished right at sunset and it was so beautiful. Such a special and perfect experience! It was exactly what we needed!“
“I have asked Julia to work my neck, shoulders, and back. Last year when I first came to her, I had a great deal of pain in my right shoulder and had virtually no use. It didn’t take long for me to regain use and now I am getting closer to being able to work on throwing motion and hopefully play some ball again. She’s given me hope.
And we talk about books, which is icing on the cake. Julia is kind, compassionate, and discerning of one’s needs. I seriously doubt that you can do any better.“

“Michelle is the best. When I got hit on my motorcycle I dealt with terrible neck stiffness from whiplash. Not only did Michelle help me turn my head again, she helped me forget I was ever having issues. Go see this lady! She’s a miracle worker.“
“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.“
“Best masseuse ever!! She’s got such a great touch and always gives 100% to every massage she does! I’ve never been one to get a regular massage, but once I found her, I started going monthly and it makes such a tremendous difference Do yourself a favor and get a massage with her ASAP!“
“Great place comfy lounge great selection. Will be back!!! Little well behaved dog friendly (thank you)“
“Katharine is so great! She really takes the time to understand what problems you're trying to work through. I feel listened to by her. Her massage was really great, and I left feeling much better. Her space is wonderful too. It's super peaceful and clean. I am looking forward to continuing to work with her on my years-long chronic pain!“

“After those long hours of driving and miles of Hiking and maybe feeling sore sleeping in a tent or not in your bed, you can feel kind of out of sorts with your body If you are ever in the area this place is a must go to I highly recommend the 90 minute combo 60 minute body massage 30 minutes It's an absolute wonderful experience. You'll get a full body massage and towards the end of your full body your feet will be soaked and hot water while your body is being completed. When it's time for your 30 minutes for feet, your feet are soft, warm and completely relaxed. I cannot tell you how amazing this was. There are no words. You must give it a try.“
“I’ve tried chiropractic & massage methods to alleviate pain over the years but Rolfing with Emily has been the best method by far. I really messed up my shoulder climbing to where I had no mobility in my neck and after an hour session, I could rotate my neck in all directions giving me tremendous relief. My shoulder continued to loosen hour by hour after the session giving me long term results. This therapy is relaxing & truly healing making it a magical & worthwhile experience. You won’t regret putting your body & money in her caring hands.“
“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. ✨??“
“Great service and friendly. I tried the cryo and the compression therapy for the first time after some long training sessions and recovery was so much faster. Definitely a must try!“
“I have been receiving messages from Rachel for the past year and I cannot recommend her enough! Every time I meet with her she takes time to listen to me and understand where my pain is coming from. Her vast knowledge of human anatomy allows her to use unique techniques to work out the tightness I have that not only has aided specific pain from my work but also the pain I get from everyday life. I always leave out appointments feeling like a new person and can feel the difference in my body for the following weeks. If you are looking for a massage therapist who is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also truly cares, then you should book an appointment with Rachel!“
“I was fortunate enough to have two massages by Sophie. The massage helped to loosen all the tight muscles and eliminate my pain and stiffness.“
“Erin is such a wonderful person, both beautiful inside and out. She made me feel so relaxed, comfortable, and cozy. I felt completely safe dressing down and talking with her about all my problems. She knows her way around the body EXTREMELY well, and helped ease mine after I got beaten up at physical therapy earlier that day. Prices are super reasonable, and I'll definitely be coming back ❤ Highly, HIGHLY recommend her!!!!!!“
“I've been getting massages from Libby for many years. Her massage studio is quiet, warm and welcoming. She is patient and sympathetic to my complaints of aches and pains from life with scoliosis and seems to know intuitively how to relieve what ails me. I always leave feeling calm, relaxed and taller :)“
“I have never been to disbusiness, but I am recommended because it's an arcada. I love arcada so much and all the businesses over there are just wonderful! Everybody has to set support there. Businesses“

Please Come and Check them out you will for your own eyes just how awesome Sun Yi's really is.“
“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!“
“Had my first encounter with Mathew today for a 90min Swedish massage, loved it!! Great ambiance, relaxing music, he hit all the areas I needed him to with just the right pressure! He maintained a relaxing atmosphere with his quiet demeanor. Definitely will be a monthly regular while I’m in town. Excellent service!“
“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!“
“First massage i had in a couple of years and Joaquin is really excellent. He uses variety of techniques including Deep Tissue, Swedish and Myofascial Release. His place is super clean and well ventilated. He even has a cone shape mask that protects you while you are facing down. I will come back for sure and certainly would recommend Joaquin to anyone looking for a serious massage therapist. Guido“
“One of the best massage practitioners in the area from my own experience. Not only is Nathan highly skilled and knowledgeable in massage therapy, but he is also very kind and generous with his time. I had been suffering for several days and could only afford an hour session - Nathan worked tor 20 additional minutes just to ensure he did his best to help me. I highly recommend NorCal Massage!“
“I was referred to Mel by my doctor. I have never been so amazed in my life. Gentle but the overall effects are outstanding!! Mel knows what he's doing!! Thank you so much Mel!“
