I came to town for the first time and didn't know who to book for a massage. Based on the Yelpers here, I decided to give her a try, and I'm glad I did. Nahara is an amazing healer. I had the essential oil massage, and my body felt relaxed within the first five minutes of smelling the oil. Then her healing touch and kind demeanor were exactly what I needed to recover from all the stress in my body. What makes her special is that I could tell she has lots of compassion, which comes through in her healing touch. Our conversations were a delight, and I will definitely come back. Also, her clothing boutique is worth checking out! The color palettes and styles are sophisticated -- a million times better than the other clothing stores in town. read more

My mom and I visited Nahara Healing Arts while staying in Mendocino, and it was such a special experience. I had the Ocean Essence body wrap and my mom had the detoxifying body treatment -- we both walked out feeling completely rejuvenated and relaxed, with effects that lasted well beyond that day. Angela truly has healing hands. Beyond her skill, she's incredibly kind and accommodating, and she made the whole visit feel personal and special. We couldn't have asked for a better way to unwind together. Highly recommend if you're in the area! read more

Nahara, you are a wonderful healer. My legs and lower back have felt crippled for a while. After a two hour session with you, I have less pain and more mobility have an amazing ability to figure out exactly where the knots are, and know just how to help each one release. are, and no, just how to help each one release. Now that I know, now that I know that you are board certified, I can handle the cost covered by my insurance. Bless you. You make the body work experience so . You're a genuine warmth adds to the healing process. Zay read more

It was my first time visiting the town of Mendocino, and my girlfriend had suggested receiving massages here but had never been able to schedule an appointment previously. We were in town for the weekend celebrating her December birthday and I was able to secure a lovely couples 90 minute session for both of us. We arrived with time to spare and browsed around at the cute shop merch. Much to my surprise, we were greeted by the boutique owner, Nahara, and she checked us in, asked if we needed anything, and walked us downstairs to the couples suite. I was partnered with Beth; and my girlfriend had Rebecca. I will discuss my massage first, and go from there. Beth - 90 minute massage - Beth was absolutely WONDERFUL. She is like a comforting hug in spring. She was attentive, asked all the right questions as far as what I was looking for or expectations, she listened to exactly what I needed, and off to the table we went. I mentioned that I've had a few bad massage experiences recently (NOT here) and that I really just want a RELAXING (no talking) true swedish massage with fluid movements and NO pointy pressure. Beth actually gave me an extremely comforting massage with Lomi Lomi movements. I would compare her techniques almost to the flow of ocean waves without the turbulence. She would ask about pressure, but did not interrupt my zen with talking. She was patient, kind, comforting, made me feel safe as far as comfort on the massage table, and made me feel so special while receiving this service. My only regret, literally..... is that I don't live closer to schedule with her more often. Thank you, Beth, please continue to be wonderful with clients. Rebecca - 90 minute massage - I can't really speak for my girlfriend about her massage. She said it was good overall. She did mention, as we both observed, that she had all shoes and socks off her feet and was walking around barefoot. It was unnerving to my girlfriend to look down from the face cradle to see her bare feet. Also, the amount of just checking in about pressure points to my partner did overall mildly disturb the zen of my side by side massage with Beth. It was noticeable how seemingly different they are with style, chatter, and overall shoe attire. Afterwards, I followed up back at the boutique office with Nahara about something that had not been noted over the phone when scheduling to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday. She proceeded to apologize, provide a percentage off the service price, and subsequently offered us a very decadent chocolate treat that she was offering as a merch purchase at the spa. It might be my new favorite matcha white chocolate indulgence. Thank you, Nahara, Thank you Beth, Thank you Rebecca.... we will absolutely return for future getaway spa visits. read more

See all

Excellent quality of fabrics clothing and linens. I want to hire Nahara as personal stylist and you will too.

Just heavenly!! After the last 6 months of sitting in front of Zoom, I was in dire need of a massage, but finding a place I'd be comfortable with during the days of covid is almost impossible..... until I found Nahara! She will ask you to sanitize your hands and she will take your temperature and ask you to wear a mask just as she does. I mean, THANK YOU, for asking, because that made me feel better about indulging in a massage during these times. Her studio in downtown Mendocino is brand new and she has an incredible setup for garden massage! YES, garden massage with water fountain in the back yard. The last time I had an outdoor massage was in Hawaii and this brought me back to happy days. On top of all of this, Nahara is an extremely skilled massage therapist! She could tell exactly what my body needed and was able to get all my knots out while having it be relaxing enough that I fell asleep. Just pure BLISS! read more

Had the most relaxing massage and amazing facial by Nahara. My skin was left soft, rosy and dewy! Definitely recommend.

Nahara's massages are the most relaxing, healing and invigorating treatments I've ever had. Other services I've enjoyed are the seaweed facial, brightening facial, and zero gravity pedicure. Finally, she has a lovely collection of clothing, skin care products, and other spa products. I always find something new every time I visit. read more

An incredible experience from the greeting to the wait room experience to the actual massage received. The best prenatal massage I've had yet. Will definitely return here for any further massage work. read more

I was referred by a friend that I believe is friends with the owner of Nahara. My husband and I booked a weekend away and I wanted to do something special so I made us late afternoon massage appointments here. I received a call roughly 2 hours before our appointment to cancel due to the storm. The weather was rough, but if that was the reason then please consider being more professional than 2 hours before the appointment. It was terribly disappointing, but we were able to book them at Sweetwater eco spa and highly recommend it! I hear Nahara has amazing massages, but the customer service was terrible and I was incredibly disappointed with how it was handled. read more

The highlight of our weekend in Mendocino was having massages and facial at Nahara Healing Arts. The atmosphere was amazing. So relaxing. Nahara really wants you to be comfortable and meets your needs. The massage was the best we have had in a very long time. I had a facial with my massage and that was such a great touch. Thank you for a very relaxing time. We will be back. read more

I was one of the "I just don't like massages" people but my wife booked this massage for me and asked me to "just try it". Once again, my wife was right. Nahara listened to what was bothering me and most importantly I felt listened to. I had been dealing with a very stiff neck and shoulders. I left the massage feeling 90% better. Within 48 hrs after the massage my shoulders, neck, and as a result, posture was back to normal. Nahara has excellent communication skills, "bed side" manner, a very strong knowledge base of anatomy, and put me at ease immediately. Thanks for the healing! I'll be back soon. read more

Oh my gosh! This was my first facial and it was an amazing experience! My friend and I came in for a couples facial and eye treatment. It was so luxurious and relaxing! Nahara had the perfect voice for putting you at ease and feeling pampered. The shop had lots of hidden treasures also. Worth every penny! read more

Excellent place to get a relaxing and professional massage. Angela is a very personable and helpful, wanting to make sure your experience pleasurable. I brought my girlfriend here for our special weekend. I scheduled a facial and massage for her and a massage for myself. My girlfriend came out glowing and very relaxed. I was pleased that she was happy, then I went in. OMG, best massage I've had in......FOREVER. If your in Mendocino or Fort Bragg, make an appointment at Nahara, you wont be disappointed. read more

The only thing to say about Nahara is WOW! I have been a return customer on multiple occasions. She is a fantastic masseuse, and a lovely person. She has a beautiful space, which she clearly put a lot of thought into. She makes you very comfortable and has a gift for massage! Unlike any other massage experience I've ever had. Highly recommend visiting her. read more

Exceptional experience-- Nahara is the most gifted & knowledgeable massage therapist I've worked with. And she happens to be warm, personable & utterly delightful too! Highly recommend! read more

Great time getting pedicures with my mom! They accommodated both of us and we enjoyed delicious rose water with a facial steam! Such a treat

I had the most incredible treatment with Nahara last weekend. She has phenomenal massage skills and is an intuitive listener, worked out so many spots that other people didn't seem to fix as gracefully and efficiently as she did. It is such a relief to find someone who is as talented and helpful as Nahara here in Mendocino. The cupping and gua sha are such a bonus too!! Highly recommend!!! read more

What an extraordinary experience is to be had with Nahara, a sensitive, gifted practitioner who works magic in a beautiful place. She is a gem and anyone will feel fortunate to spend time under her caring and knowledgeable hands. Thank you, Nahara read more

Best Massage ever! She actually listened to my needs and it made a huge difference. Her place is SPARKLING clean, and she has a beautiful setup outside. Also, she is the ONLY therapist that is listed as licensed on Yelp. I bought my mother-in-law a massage on my way out it was so good. I can't wait to go back to Mendocino for my next massage. THANK YOU!!!! read more

I arrived to the studio, and it was lovely. The water feature in the entrance is calming and and the aroma immediately made me feel a sense of calm. Nahara greeted me in a silk mask and screened me for Covid. I was also given a silk mask for my treatment. After i sanitized and completed a screening i was taken to the treatment room which is just as lovely. I chose a warm stone massage. Once I was on the treatment table and Nahara had reviewed my medical screening the treatment began. During this difficult time I wasn't sure I was going to be able to relax. As she began the service I utterly felt the last few months of anxiety leave my body and I was butter in her hands. She found areas that had hurt for so long I thought it was normal. She used warm green jade stones to break up knots in my legs and shoulders. She was gentle and loving. I left the studio feeling light, almost intoxicated. I encourage you to book an appointment with the lovely Nahara. We often forget to take care of ourselves, and this will remind you that you too need to be loved, pampered and be the beat version of your selfI cant wait to have another treatment with Nahara. I highly recommend you to go feel her healing energy and hands. Ill be going back soon. read more

Day two! and we both feel amazing. Nahara is an amazing woman who definitely knows her craft to the T. Nahara as a former pre-medical student + expertise in Chinese medicine + naturopathic healing she definitely knows all points of isolation and healing. She was very consistent with her techniques throughout the entire 90 mins both of the left and right side of our bodies, which rarely happens and kind of annoying lol. After she massages consistently on both sides of our bodies, she went back to find troubled areas and areas we talked about during consultation. SHES A GOLDEN TREAT. Thank you!! read more

One word.... amazing. Run to Nahara before you can't get an appointment. I had arranged couples massage to celebrate my anniversary. The setting itself was perfect, just what you want in a spa. The massages with Nahara and Leanne were just what was needed. Nahara, the owner, went way above and beyond with making it a special day.... flowers, candy, champagne, and even a personal card. Not "required" by any means, but shows an owner who cares about her business and her clients. We will be back for sure and can't wait to see Nahara and Leanne again. read more

We had such a great experience with Nahara. Are you craving a massage for the last 6 months during COVID? Get the best massage ever in her beautiful outdoor space with impeccable COVID precautions! This was honestly the best decision I've made since March. Enjoy! read more

Having a massage with Nahara is like going to another world, one where there are no worries and relaxation is all around. Nahara is following all protocols as by the order, and genuinely cares is you have had any prior injuries or aches. Her massage is a wonderful combination of luscious oils, infused with aromatherapy, hot oils and hot jade rocks. From head to toe, she works her magic and I left feeling refreshed with glowing skin. read more

I had an amazing massage and facial today from Nahara! She really cares about her clients and takes her time giving you the perfect experience. read more

The time at Nahara Healing Arts was the highlight of my Mendocino trip. If you are in the area, it will be a treat like no other. A facial with Nahara is the closest to how one might perceive heaven! My two guests felt the same about their facial and massage. I cannot wait to feel pampered next trip in the beautiful studio and surroundings. Treat yourself to one of Nahara's offerings, you will not soon forget your visit! read more

I was introduced to Nahara through a good friend. I had a rib out of place among many other things and needed some bodywork and was going to only be in the area for roughly a week. I had no idea what to expect but this amazing woman works nothing short of miracles. It was so calm and relaxing. The essential oil mixes were heaven and her knowledge of the human body insane. She got my body back to it's best functioning self. I am so grateful to Nahara and my friend that recommended her. If you come to Mendocino experiencing Nahara Healing Arts is a must do. I am in Mendo now once a month and see her every time I come to town. read more

This was the best massage I've ever had...ever...in my life. I've had massages all over the world and some, I might add, were pretty amazing. Nothing, however, can compare with the massage I had by Nahara. My whole body felt tingly and continued to tingle throughout the day. I felt so-o-o-o wonderful. I've never experienced that before. Magical. read more

I've been to the best salons around the world and none have been as wonderful. I had a facial for my birthday. I'm still aglow from my visit yesterday, my skin & my body, my face & my spirit all feel 20 years lighter. Words cannot describe the experience. Thank You Nahara. read more

So many extra special touches, an afternoon spent with Nahara is a memory I will never forget. She went out of her way to make the visit extra special. We can't wait to see her again soon! read more

Nahara is one of those rare, incredibly knowledgeable and intuitive healers that Mendocino is so fortunate to have. I can't tell you what an amazing resource she has been to my family that's local and to us when we come up to this beautiful spot for some healing and regeneration. Thank you thank you thank you read more

This was a wonderful experience. My wife and I found Nahara walking around town, and got lucky. She was available for last minute massages before Thanksgiving Day, so got us in before that. Her space is atmospheric and immaculate, and she's genuinely interested in your well being. She went over the time for us, introduced scents and other massage accessories, and asked us how we wanted to feel at the end. We appreciate her accommodating us during a holiday/ COVID week, and think she'll be a great addition to the healing community of Mendocino. Thanks again. read more

What a wonderful spa! A delightfully relaxing space but more importantly Nahara is the best. I have already booked my next massage and look forward to exploring her menu of other treatments as well. I highly recommend this simply sublime experience! Very professional...exceeded my expectations! read more
