The owner of HH, Kelly Rice, closed abruptly in October 2025 without paying her own employees for the last couple weeks, and sent her clients a TEXT, stating she was closing and would "not be able" to reimburse anyone who PRE-PAID for a package. I purchased a YEAR of massages (24 massage sessions) for $3185.00 and had only used 8 of sessions. So she has screwed me out of $2123. 30. In fact, I don't know of anyone who was had their money refunded. Meanwhile, we've heard from other clients that she's still somehow able to afford to remodel her OWN home, while owing hundreds of thousands of dollars to clients and creditors. Kelly's reputation is shot, and no one will ever trust her again in this town. *I'm happy to say the therapists who worked at HH were EXCELLENT, and they will land on their feet. I was able to connect with my favorite LMT, and will continue with her. read more

This is my go-to for massages. I recommend Theresa P. or Mayra P., both of whom are great, friendly massage therapists. I always feel amazing after each service. read more

Fantastic! Friendly staff, lovely atmosphere. Had one of the best massages of my life with Ernie! Highly recommend.

They were able to fit my husband and I in last minute. Our massages were wonderful. The vibe was peaceful and tranquil. We both walked out feeling fantastic. My only suggestion would be to ensure everyone's experience was the same, especially for the first time. My husband had a vastly different experiences. He got hot towels, was offered the aromatherapy, and I did not. This may just be because the difference in the therapist's techniques but would have liked to be asked if I wanted any of that or if I wanted any of the included additions. Other than that, we feel fantastic! read more

Love this place! Great massage! Theresea was so wonderful. The place is super nourishing and relaxing! We have a monthly membership to a massage franchise but this place has so many benefits that I may cancel that one!! This is a very authentic experience. Theresa gave a wonderful massage. We actually had deep tissue with the CBD oil. So therapeutic. I feel much more relaxed than normal. It wasn't rushed. Love the healing room with cucumber or lemon water. Teas and even a delicious healthy treat. Ashley was super nice too. I highly recommend!! read more

See all

Great massage therapists and environment. Super nice staff and front desk folks. I've never been disappointed with my 90 minute massages here! read more

So far I have had an hour long astrology reading with Caroline and the consult and hour long acupuncture with Elizabeth. Both were so wonderful that I'm already booking my next appointments and recommending to my family and friends. This is such a neat business that offers quite a lot. I can't wait to try the Reiki healing next. I'm so glad that I found this place! read more

I'm just going to say that I'm happy to live only a few blocks away from here! This local gem is a keeper! I surprised my fiancé with a couples massage because lord knows how much we needed it! Lisa & Dawn did everything and more than we expected! I had lots of tension on my back and we were both very sore from our workouts. They were genuine about our needs and left us feeling in a daze and so relaxed for the rest of the day. We loved every moment of it so we're definitely coming back! Highly Recommend! read more

I had the absolute BEST massage today from an incredible therapist, DeeDee!! I considered not sharing so her schedule didn't get packed but she deserves the recognition! DeeDee is a professional in every way. She listened to what I needed and checked in frequently regarding my comfort. DeeDee provided me with the opportunity for feedback and made me feel very safe. I can't wait to see her again. The location is great and the environment is warm and inviting. Exactly what I needed. read more

My husband and I had deep tissue massages with Ernie and Ellie. All I can say is "WOW". Ernie's massage was the most skilled massage I've had since we moved to Florida several years ago. My husband described Ellie as a supreme TALENT. We were both very pleased with the service. read more

Amazing. I had a few days away with my best girlfriends and searched for a place that could take all 3 of us in St Pete's. Handcrafted Healing was super accommodating. From the moment we walked in until the moment we left, they were amazing. Everyone was properly wearing masks and was super friendly. All of the girls loved their 90 min massage and we would all go back... like tomorrow. read more

I had Erin as a masseuse and when I say I have never had this type of relief, I mean it. I don't know what the stretches and pressure points he was hitting but it worked. Highly recommend !!! read more

Such an incredible experience. Dawn what's really in tune with what my body needed. I've heard that from people before but I've never actually felt it for myself, so it was a really fascinating and wonderful experience. If I had any feedback it would be that there is a lot of talking and questions and she did such a good job to get me relaxed that it was hard to focus on the words she was saying during the massage. But at the same time I really appreciate it because she explained what she was going to do so that I understood the process. My only complaint is that they didn't ask me if I wanted a two-hour massage because I could have laid on that table for the whole day!! Getting off the table is the hardest thing I had to do that day because it meant that I couldn't just sit and enjoy that feeling. Thank you thank you thank you thank you. read more

We love Handcrafted Healing! I have been going to them for the past 5months and have had great experiences with several therapists. They offer a very welcoming environment and take the time to make sure you have a great experience. I personally prefer a deep tissue massage and feel that many therapists are trained in this technique along with several others such as cupping that are very beneficial. I have a monthly membership, that has enabled me to also send a guest or family members to enjoy when I can not. They have all loved it and asked to return. Therapeutic massage is my focus. I am so happy to find a place that makes me feel so comfortable that I am actually able to relax (which is a difficult task). read more

There was no pressure to do anything but come in and relax, before and after receiving our service. Covid 19 safe. Staff was friendly. I tried the Thai yoga for the first time with Debbi and she did a good job of setting the expectation and explaining the differences. My partner had Kelly, who was excellent and worked kinks out of her body she didn't realize were there. I would definitely return or recommend to others. read more

The reviews are all accurate. This place is so good. I highly recommend a Thai yoga massage. Don't want to miss out on another modality? No worries! They'll combine modalities to get you whatever you want or need at no extra charge. read more

I went here with girlfriends and this was one of the best massages I have ever had in my life. We called two days before and they were so sweet to accommodate three women at the same time. I loved the comprehensive intake form and how my masseuse saw me early, so that we could discuss my medical history. My massage was nothin short of amazing. I had so much stress going in and came out on cloud 9. The snacks, lovely water, relaxation room, and essential oil choices are nice touches as well. Next time I'm in St. Pete I will be returning. read more

I drive by this business's attractive office frequently and have been curious for a while. I have spine problems chronically and usually use movement and stretching for some relief, but I really irritated my cervical spine nerves preparing for a yard sale. I called for an ASAP massage with someone who could work on almost intractable knots. The receptionist consulted with someone and said that Channing was the man. YES he was! Channing had hands of iron and unflagging energy. He addressed my neck and shoulders first, as they were my reason for coming, but went on to provide some relief for my long-standing sciatic pain. Channing employed both prolonged single-site pressure (for those pesky knots) and also sweeping movements over a larger area that were skilled enough for me to experience some relief just from that movement. The Room was comfortable--dim lights, meditative music, and lovely soft linens for the massage table. Overall, a delightful visit that I hope to repeat soon. read more

Teresa is a life saver. I've been to her twice with acute issues and both times she's provided tremendous relief. She's the most "accurate" masseuse I've worked with. Recommended! read more

Great location, amazing staff, and affordable prices! I was looking for a local place where I'd be heard about what I needed and given personalized treatment. Kristina at Handcrafted Healing did just that, she asked for my preferences, made sure I was comfortable, and did an AMAZING job. She really tackled all the stress I held on my back and neck, and offered me some advice as to how to stretch out the muscles. She is also very knowledgeable on aromatherapy and we were able to bounce ideas back and forth on which oil combinations to use to help me in the future. I HIGHLY recommend visiting Handcrafted Healing, it turned out to be a very nice hidden treasure if you will. One I hope to visit again . *a year later* And I still can't say enough how amazing this place is! I just recently had a work event I wanted to plan to focus on self care and relaxation and Kelly and her staff (Sierra and Christina in this case ) were just absolutely amazing! They assisted in making the event a hit and as always were very detail oriented in making sure we had a stress free time. These ladies went above and beyond to provide the most relaxing environment after a hectic and very stressful week, and boy did they succeed! If you still haven't had a chance to check them out, I highly recommend them. read more

I have enjoyed massages at Handcrafted Healing for a few years now! Recently, I have started doing Reiki with Theraputic Massage with Rae! They have changed my life and become a regular part of my self care routine. I leave feeling relaxed and grounded. I signed up for the gold package so that I can start seeing Rae twice a month for healing. I'm so grateful to have found this spa and such a wonderful therapist. read more

A hidden gem! The front desk was welcoming and friendly, and not at all pushy with sales when I inquired about some items. Amanda "Rae" was my massage therapist and she did an excellent job. She was incredibly intuitive and had a great calm energy. I would absolutely go again the next time I'm in Tampa. read more

Excellent experience! Steve welcomed me and was welcoming. My massage therapist was Kelly and she was friendly and prompt. I have experienced many massages over the years domestically and abroad. My friends recommended and I am glad I went, just sorry that I didn't go sooner. Kelly's service was first class. She has a healing touch and found all my knots. She adapted to my needs and addressed all my spoken and unspoken requests. The ambiance is very quaint, soothing, and relaxing. I chose a couple of essential oils to use; one was serenity and really helped to calm. They offer an attractive membership plan and other packages. I can't wait tong UPDATE: I have been a member for about 4 months and see Kelly twice a month. It just keeps getting better! Love my handcrafted healing crew! read more

I've been to massage therapists all over the world (literally...from a Russian Olympic team masseuse to a 4th generation Balinese masseuse), and not many compare to Kelly. I've been working with Kelly for almost a year and she's helped heal my pain issues which stem from many years of serious surgeries. I highly recommend Kelly for her attention to detail, incredible strength, deep knowledge of anatomy/physiology and kinesiology, compassionate nature and the beautiful Handcrafted Healing space she's created. The other massage practitioners there are also very talented and each have their own set of special gifts. The last thing I'll say is that their pricing structure is incredibly reasonable, especially for everything they do in one session (aromatherapy, Chinese cupping, hot towels etc.). You won't be disappointed! read more

After a long weekend of moving, I needed a massage, and chose HH. Exactly what I was looking for. Rae did a great job, and I felt awesome afterwards. From the moment I stepped in the door, to when I left, I was made to feel welcome and comfortable. The pricing is very fair, and the services offered are many and varied. I'll be back. read more

By far the best massage experience I've had. I can't believe I didn't find this place sooner. Absolutely would recommend

I have been searching for a massage therapist like Kelli for such a long time. When you walk in its like visiting old friends you haven't seen in awhile! The atmosphere is so calming and inviting, I was completely at ease and immediately felt like I was in the right place finally! I could never express in words how talented and compassionate Kelli is with her guests. I left feeling balanced, calm, and she alleviated all my tension and body aches and pains! Please do yourself a huge favor and book your appointment... you will be so pleased and your search for a qualified, talented massage therapist will be over ! UPDATE: As I've stated previously HH is a 5 star experience all the way! Today I had a massage with Matthew and what he brings to a massage is a complete and total relaxation not only to your body but your mind and stress levels! I felt like I melted away on the table as did all of my stress!! He is an incredible addition to an already stellar team of therapists! Highly recommend! read more

I was in the area and was in desperate need of a massage. I wanted to try out cupping therapy for the first time. I came across this awesome massage clinic on Yelp and decided to purchase their $60 for $50 Yelp deal. The location was easy to find. Kelly was extremely friendly and welcoming. I opted for the 60min cupping massage and it was fantastic from start to finish! She did a great job at targeting my problem areas (upper back/neck). The music and aromatherapy was a huge plus--super relaxing and comfortable. If you want a great massage then this is the place! Highly recommend! read more

Handcrafted Healing is a great place to get a massage ! The setting is serene, with the business offering a calming relaxing oasis from the outside world. The therapists are excellent with different specialties available, the prices are affordable, and makes it easy to look forward to getting massages on a regular basis ! Conveniently located near Downtown in an older home, decorated beautifully with lots of calming features, Handcrafted Healing is a little piece of bliss in a too hectic world ! The therapists there are excellent, and they all have their own specialties. Ellie is awesome ! She takes the time to really focus on your needs, and she has helped my shoulder injury a lot ! Besides massage, she has used the Fascia Buster on me, which was very effective in breaking up tension. Ellie also does cupping, which is very helpful as well. Kelly is also an excellent therapist, as well as being a friendly and welcoming owner of the business. Joining their Membership program helps make getting massages possible by making it affordable to come in on a regular basis. Whether for an injury you're getting over, for regular self care, or just to find some relaxation, you should definitely check into getting treatment at Handcrafted Healing in St. Petersburg ! read more

THE best massage I've ever had. Kelly was amazing, and I am now pain free....which is something I haven't experienced in a very long time.

You guys. I've had a lot of massages but this place is a total gem. Good energy. Good vibes. And Ellie is the absolute best. She's always helped me with moving energy, getting rid of a 3 day headache, reminding me to breathe, etc. she's the best. Def recommend this place as often as one can go! read more

I have been to handcrafted Healing several times for prenatal massages and it has always been a 5 star experience. Kelly Perkoski is a gifted and experienced masseuse who helps me relax and release tense areas. Her technique is excellent and she always asks me about areas of concern, making this a massage that's truly handcrafted for my needs. The front desk is super nice and the essential oils are great quality. The place feels clean and the atmosphere is relaxing. You can get complementary treats like a granola bar and water or tea at the end of your massage. If you are pregnant and need a massage, or are just in need of a good therapeutic massage, not just an oily rubdown, you won't be disappointed at handcrafted Healing! read more

After entering into their warm, inviting atmosphere, I had the most incredibly intuitive massage by Melania. She is very knowledgeable and sat with me beforehand to listen to all of my current medical history and complaints. I left there feeling better than I had in far too long. read more

It's been a while since I've received a professional massage, but that's all about to change after my first visit with Melania at Handcrafted Healing. The setting is perfect, dim lights and soft music accented by pleasant aromas. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and every employee I met was friendly and personable. Melania made sure to ask where I was feeling pain, and it was clear she listened to my words and paid attention to the trouble spots. When I walked in, my shoulders and neck were so tight I could barely turn my head. Upon waking this morning, a little more than 12 hours after my massage, the pain is nearly gone and my range of motion has increased exponentially. Last, and certainly not least, the pricing structure fits perfectly within my modest budget. I cannot thank Melania enough for her superb work, and I am sincerely looking forward to my next visit! read more

There are plenty of massage studios where you can get a relaxing massage from an experienced massage therapist. What sets this massage studio apart from the others is that you truly do receive handcrafted healing for your body, mind and spirit during every visit. When I recently mentioned to Sierra, during yet another amazing massage from her, that my wife Jan's birthday was coming up at the end of what has been an especially challenging year for our family, she sweetly suggested that they might be able to set up something special for Jan in the tranquility room after her own massage. Sure enough, I was able to bring in some sweet treats for Jan to enjoy as an added surprise after her birthday massage from Natii. Jan may have been the one, on this particular day, who received the fantastic massage, followed by a mini-surprise party that was set up beautifully by Ashley and Steve. But it was also healing to my spirit to see her showered with such love by everyone at Handcrafted Healing. read more
