Hands On Healing

Stephanie, is awesome. I went in back hurting, hips hurting. Sore everywhere. Came out felt like a 300 lb rock had been taken off my shoulders back etc … I’ve been here before. And forgot how well it makes you feel. How balanced a massage by a person who knows what they are doing feels. Ty Stephanie. Thanks for a relaxing day I’ll be back

It was my first time getting a massage and a patient of the office I work in (I work in a physical therapy office) recommended this place. It’s true, it’s really hard to find but the massage therapist met me out back and brought me inside. The music was soothing and lights were dimmed. It was a very enjoyable experience although pretty expensive. I have to say that I probably won’t go back because I just don’t think it’s my type of thing. They’re website is super convenient and as I said the people who work there are pretty attentive. So if you think this is something you’d like to try then have fun!

I’mI see Stephanie smith when I am in pain. (Which given my new place in life is becoming more frequent). She is amazing. She always finds time to get me in and she warm and welcoming. I recently have been dealing with a bad bout of tension headaches which have been making it hard to sleep and have led to migraines. Thursday I had a shot at the doctors office and it helped for a bit but a few days later the pain in my neck and shoulder is back. I saw her today and she worked on my neck and shoulders obviously finding my problem areas. She taped my up with rocktape… love this stuff and love miss steph!!!
I have also been to Savanah for my waxing service. Having never been waxed in an intimate area before she was very comforting. She didn’t make it awkward of uncomfortable at all. It was far less painful than I expected (after talking to coworkers and friends I saw terrified) but she made the entire expirence not enjoyable per say but tolerable with excellent conversion. She is do sweet and understanding of fears when it comes to waxing and other esthetic service.

It’s the little steps they take that separates Hands On from other businesses

Got a massage for the first time here today. I don’t get massages very often because let’s face it, they’re expensive wherever you go, even at a fair price like $ 75 hr.
I used to go to Kharma on the Miracle Mile, but my massage therapist moved and I didn’t feel the others I tried did as thorough a job. Read reviews for Hands On Healing and thought it would be worth trying. Booked an appointment with Steph because of all the rave reviews here.
Wow was it worth it.
I have insane muscle tension throughout my body, but especially in my back and shoulders, and hip flexor problems in my left hip. I completely forgot to tell Steph about my hip problem, and she ‘found’ it within minutes and relieved my discomfort COMPLETELY. This is a major thing, I went to physical therapy for this hip for weeks, and never felt as good as I did walking out of Hands On Healing today. My neck and shoulders also feel much relief and increased range of motion. Thank you Steph, for helping me! I will be back soon, even on this teacher’s budget!

If you live an active lifestyle like myself, then you need to come to this place and ask for Steph. She does it all!
I originally started getting massages here to ‘loosen up’ the muscles sort of speak and to relieve stress and tension that the body takes from work and exercise (i still do till this day). However, what I didn’t know, is that massage therapy is also a great way to help with body injuries (sports/​work related or not).
For example: Not to long ago, I suffered a knee injury while climbing Half Dome in Yosemite. During the climb, both my knees gave out and just locked up on me. I couldn’t bend them. After talking to Steph about my situation, she told me to hurry up and come in for treatment so she can repair the damage that was caused. Come to find out, Steph actually specializes in pain management and repair utilizing a variety of techniques such as trigger point therapy, Myofascial release, and PNF Stretching. Steph restored full motion in my knees with just a few sessions! I couldn’t believe how fast the recovery was. I was able to get off the crutches sooner then my doctor had anticipated thanks to the treatment Steph gave me.
Here’s another reason why you’ll love Steph: She gives you a crash course on Human Anatomy. Steph breaks the complexity of the human body down to where an average guy like me can understand. I’m amazed in how the nervous system is so intertwined with the body.
Every time i have a sports/​work injury, I see Steph. And I encourage you to do the same if your in a similar situation. You’d be surprised on how fast the body heals itself naturally with a little help from Steph’s hands. =)

I cannot say enough great things about this place.
There is nothing I do not love.
I’ve been here several times and I will continue to go.
Prices are great.
Staff is extremely wonderful and knowledgeable.
The new sauna adds even more greatness to this place.
Everything from the music to the looks is all relaxing and exactly what you want.

I decided to take advantage of the Valentine’s day package and get a couples package. This was the first massage I have ever had and was curious to what it entailed. I was lucky enough to have Lorrie provide my massage. The package began with the infrared sauna that helped relax me before the massage began. After about thirty minutes I was heated up and ready to lay down.
Lorrie was amazing and provided me one of the most relaxing experiences I have ever had. Working in a high stress environment it’s easy to forget what it’s like to be completely relaxed. Now I realize how important this is for my health. I will definitely be coming back for more massages in the future and telling everyone I can how wonderful they are. Thank you Lorrie for the amazing experience.

This is the best and only place you should ever get a massage. I got worked on by Stephanie Smith. She knew what she was doing and I went from hardly being able to walk to being able to stand up right and be pain free.

The absolute best! I was having a lot of pain in my shoulder and lower back, they got me right in and eased my pain. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. I even got tips on how to help my shoulder and back between visits. I can’t wait for my next visit.
Thanks Joyce.

Steph is my usual gal and she is amazing! Today she was fully booked (not surprising), but I needed to come in cause I am all kinds of broken and I couldn’t wait for her next availability, thankfully I was able to get in with Lorrie. She does amazing work as well. It’s good to know that you’re in good hands no matter who you are with here.

I’m a new customer of Hands on Healing. The d-​tox wellness package made me feel really good, during and definitely after. There are three aspects to the package: 30 mins in the infrared sauna, a 60 min massage and 30 mins of the ionic foot bath. I enjoyed every minute and at the end of each session I asked in disbelief, «Time’s already up?!» I was comforted throughout the entire process from the lovely Joyce. She is a wealth of information and very helpful. She also did my massage, which was oooh sooo gooood. Joyce has the healing touch!

I’ve been to several massage therapists over the years, and this has been one of the best massages! I had a half hour deep tissue massage with Joyce, and she was very helpful in working out tension and discomfort in my upper back & shoulders. Great environment, very relaxing, and very professional!

I received an excellent massage from Joyce. Just the perfect amount of pressure to relieve some of the aches I was experiencing. She also worked out some tension that was affecting some of my other movement. This has been one of the best massage experiences I’ve had in Stockton.

I suffer from chronic shoulder pain and earlier this week I experienced some debilitating pain in my upper back and shoulder. I called Healing Hands to schedule an appointment. Fortunately they were able to fit me in that day in the afternoon. My appointment was with Tracy and she did an excellent job. Just the right amount of pressure. She was also very personable and approachable. The next morning the pain in my upper back was gone and the range of motion in my left arm had improved. The price was right and the environment is relaxing and pleasant. I will continue to come here.

I’m a massage therapist myself for over 20 years and let me tell you, this place rocks. be sure to start with a 30 minute session in the infrared sauna (not your ordinary old sauna) before your massage. I recommend trying to get a session with Stephanie.

Hands on Healing is AMAZING! Love the ambiance — it’s so relaxing (it’s a nice calming place and the rooms are very nicely decorated. Honestly the rooms gave me a more relaxed feeling before I even started my massage), and I especially love Stephanie!
Stephanie has been able to help me get relief for my upper back, which tightens up during long periods of stress. I have been so stressed out during the past few months that my back was unnaturally tight. I couldn’t even remember what it was like to feel de-​stressed anymore, and Stephanie was able to help relieve all of it! She was so compassionate and concerned about me, and was able to fix my shoulders (they were ridiculously tight and I realized that after she was done — my whole entire back felt so much better afterwards). I honestly think that her hands are magical — the name «Hands on Healing» definitely suits the business for sure.
Everyone else that I have met there has been super nice and they even sent me a card saying thank you for your business and it was signed by everyone at the shop. It’s rare to go to a massage place where people LEGITIMATELY care about you and your well being and want to help, and that’s definitely how I feel about Hands on Healing. I will definitely be coming back more and more to see Stephanie. Hands on Healing is a rare and beautiful gem in Stockton. Love it!

Love, love, love this place… I’ve had massages with Debbie and Tracee and both were awesome. If you’re looking for ‘energy’ work, definitely call Tracee. What else is great is their easy online appointment booking system. When you walk in, you’ll immediately start relaxing from the ‘zen’ feeling. The sauna is hard for me but it does warm up your muscles and get you ready for the massage to come. I love the spa feeling of slippers and a big robe and the little tote they give you for your clothes. Also they give you a nice cool towel and water. On our last ‘girls’ day’ appointment we got a bowl of berries to munch on. It’s a little slice of Heaven so you should stop reading this review and just book your appointment now ;)

I decided to give Hands On Healing a try because my muscles were feeling so tight that it became so painful. It came to a point where I couldn’t lift my arms without feeling pain. I was so thankful they were open weekends. After booking my appointment with Steff, I felt so much better. She hit all the right spots with the techniques she used. Online booking was so easy to use– another plus. I will definitely be returning.

First time customer of Hands on Healing and I plan to go again. I had a massage by Tracee following a recent surgery. It was a relaxing experience and she had enough ‘know-​how’ to do true body work to accelerate healing.
The building is plain on the outside, but once you step into the H.o.H. offices you get the full spa atmosphere. I like the quiet neighborhood setting where I would be comfortable riding my bike to and from an appointment. They offer a lot of services in addition to massage including detox, exfoliation, and beauty treatments. Once a month there is an open house with reduced prices where you can try treatments and meet staff.
