Words will never describe the beautiful experience I had there with Valerie Sargent. I drove an…read morehour to this appointment. The center itself is calming and peaceful. Valerie was warm and it was easy to work with her. She was able to open my Akashic records and help me tidy up healing that desperately needed to be done. She also brought other items to light that gave me insight to things I was not aware of. I am hoping to meet for another session this summer. I highly recommend her work.

From the owner: Valerie is a certified hypnotherapist, Akashic Records reader and Intuitive healer/Artist. She has…read morebeen practicing Reiki and other healing modalities for 20 years, and has been working within the Akashic Records for the last 7 years. The Records contain the record of your soul's existence; you can think of it like a library where all of the books are about you. Work done in the Records offers powerful soul level healing, and enables us to have a more conscious relationship with our own soul. Valerie is a pioneer in working with past life regression hypnosis within the Akashic Records; extending the scope and depth of healing at the soul level not just the ego level. She also works with groups and couples. Don't let distance keep you from getting the healing you desire: Skype sessions available! Valerie is also an artist.

The Shala Center is a peaceful sanctuary and an ideal rental for personal development workshops and seminars.

And if you think you might go for multiple sessions, they sometimes run a deal with buy 4/ get 1 free. Booking is also very easy to do online. I had been going to Cali for acupuncture and I wish I could give her 6 stars! She helped me with a physical issue I was dealing with, and most importantly, by seeing her regularly I was able to get on a regular sleeping schedule again. Cali is truly, truly special. Head's up that the acupuncture space is a community model - so no individual rooms (which has never detracted from my experience - it's just a good thing to know!)

Review for Tips and Toes Nail Salon - April 2025…read more I visited Tips and Toes with my daughter for a mother-daughter day. We were looking forward to some quality time and self-care, and while the technicians were kind and the work itself was well done, I left the salon feeling taken advantage of due to the pricing and lack of transparency. Before going, I estimated the cost to be around $350, including tip--a generous allowance for what I expected. However, I was charged $467.31, including a 30% tip. I didn't have time to review the total immediately, as we had other appointments. Later, I returned to ask for an itemized receipt because the amount didn't feel right. Here's what was listed: * Daughter's gel pedicure - $70 * My full acrylic set with gel polish (hands) - $75 * Daughter's dip manicure - $65 * My full acrylic set (toes) - $60 * Classic pedicure add-on for my toes - $49 * Nail extension for daughter's dip manicure - $10 * Gel color add-on for my toes - $20 This brought the total for my toes alone to $129, despite the fact that I had already done all prep work myself the night before, including cutting cuticles and removing calluses. I simply wanted a full set of acrylics on my toes--not an additional $49 charge for a classic pedicure that wasn't requested. What's more, when I asked about pricing for future fill-ins, I was quoted $65 for hands and $110 for toes. I've never been charged anything close to that price for fill-ins on my toes in the past, and I've been getting my nails done for decades. At no point were prices posted anywhere in the salon or clearly communicated to us before services were rendered. If I had known that a full set on my toes would cost $129, I absolutely would have declined. That kind of expense was not foreseeable and, in my opinion, not clearly justified. The experience has left me feeling misled and disappointed. I believe in paying fairly for services, but customers deserve upfront transparency. I hope the salon considers posting visible pricing and being more communicative with clients about add-ons and their associated costs before starting services. I truly wanted to leave this salon feeling pampered and peaceful--but instead, I left with a sense of being taken advantage of. I'm sharing this in hopes that it encourages better practices for future clients.
