Alaena is the absolute best. Her apartment is beautifully taken care of and always clean and smelling amazing. The room she uses as the spa room is gorgeous and feels like a professional treatment room (because it is!). If it's your first time getting a bikini or Brazilian, YOU MUST GO TO HER. She is fast, very good at what she does, and her energy and attitude is so calming and reassuring, you'll feel like you've known her forever. I love you Alaena! read more

I had such an AMAZING experience with Alaena today for my Brazilian wax! Before I get into the details of my experience, I need to point out the location. At first, I thought Google Maps was leading me to the wrong place, so then I put in the address on Waze and it told me the same thing. *** The Healing Square is actually located in the Solana Ridge Apartments! *** Since it is in an apartment complex, parking for clients/guests are allowed only on any spot that is not numbered - basically any spot that is not under a roof! So please be mindful of that so you don't get towed or park in someone's designated spot! Alaena also will contact you before your appointment with details and how to get there too, which helps as well. Okay, now for the wax. I am somewhat experienced with Brazilian waxing. I started in 2012 but I started to regularly keep up with them since December. I have recently decided to ditch European Wax Center and go with something more intimate and local because I have found that the service I get is just exponentially BETTER. Alaena was so friendly and welcoming and made the Brazilian wax such a breeze. Let me tell you, she is THOROUGH. I am so satisfied that I left completely hairless! (Unlike my experiences at EWC, I always leave with so many hairs left behind. MEH) Not only that but she is FAST. She did such a quality job in such a short amount of time that I was kind of surprised we were already done. I'm sure it also felt like that because she talks to you the whole time and she's just interesting to talk to! I've had many estheticians where there'd always be awkward silences and just generic conversation - but nope, not with Alaena. I just cannot stress enough how much this was the easiest and fastest wax for me. Also, I forgot to mention she uses hard wax! For those who don't know, hard wax requires no wax strips at all - they put it on, it hardens, and they remove it. This means the wax is so much less painful and I believe it to be more thorough! Alaena uses special hard wax imported from Paris. Ooh la la. Price: $45 for a full Brazilian wax! Which is a GREAT price around the area considering I was doing a lot of research before I came here and so many places charge around $55-$65. That just makes my wallet sad lol. I'd pay $45 for my Brazilian waxes at EWC, but their service comes nowhere close to Alaena's. Her work is worth every damn penny lol. The room itself is so cute and so calming! I can tell everything is so clean and hygenic. It's just a really nice open, and relaxing space. Very quaint and intimate - SO comfy! I am glad to say I think I have my Brazilian waxing lady! She's the one! lol thank you so much Alaena!! Such an awesome in-home family run business!! =) read more

Aleana heals inside out!!! She does my facials and waxing and I cannot be more pleased. She is very detailed oriented, very attentive and accommodating to my needs. She uses top of the line products, very carefully chosen, and she is also happy to recommend the best products out there. She is also very pleasant to be around and I am always looking forward to my next appointment! read more

Amazing....what more cab I say??? I went and had waxing done, never done it before, I was nervous, Alaena made me feel so comfortable in those not so comfortable positions....she was caring and so gentle!! The atmosphere was so relaxing and professional!! Already booked my next appointment!!! Highly recommended!!! read more

Today was my first visit and it was absolutely perfect. This is a little oasis in Murrieta. I highly recommend you treat yourself to a facial or waxing. read more

Alaena was very nice. The area where she does all her business is very nice and clean and very separated from the other part if her home. I got a brazilian wax and it was very fast yet very thorough...she is moving to a commercial space and that's ok...i am definitively a repeat customer! read more

What can I say? I just left after a 90 min massage and a facial feeling like golden Rays of sunshine. As a massage therapist myself, I can be judgy unintentionally. But Chris had me drooling. My facial has my skin feeling like a babies bottom! I ended up with a package deal(extremely affordable!) and can't wait to go back. Really friendly, good people. Glad I found this gem! My new best friends! read more

I came to see Alaena for my first Brazillian wax & she was awesome!! Made you feel so comfortable the entire time, such a sweetheart. Painless & over in 15 minutes! Such a great experience, definitely my go to place from now on. read more

I got a Brazilian wax a couple weeks ago. It was the best experience I could have imagined for what I was doing. I've had Brazilians done at a handful of other places and this one was by far the best. Aleana was very friendly and easy to talk to, she specializes in a "15 minute Brazilian" which is great to get you in and out quick and the pain was minimal, she also gave me after care instructions to get the best out of my wax. I will definitely be back.. I already have my next appt. set up. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to get a Brazilian wax. read more

Absolutely a fantastic experience! Massage and facial by Chris and Aleana for Mother's Day was a pure joy. Gave my husband a facial for his birthday and he can't wait for his next. They are a great couple who have amazing talent and will certainly use them for gifts. read more

My daughter and I went to Alaena for eyebrow waxes and it was a great experience. My eyebrows were butchered the last time I had them threaded (by another establishment) and Alaena was great in making me feel better about their "recovery". My daughter had only had an eyebrow waxing one other time and she was pretty nervous. Alaena cleaned up her brows according to teenage standards and my daughter walked out happy and wanting to go back. I'm looking forward to trying some of the facials and will definitely return for waxing. Plus I'm happy to support small business!! A+ read more

What an amazing experience! First off, Chris and Alaena are some really fun, really great people. We hit it off right away and I felt totally comfortable working with them. I've had quite a few facials, and Alaena really takes it to another level. She knows what she's doing and does a very thorough job! I couldn't help but comment on how nice my face felt throughout the facial and especially once she was done. She even gave me a scalp massage while my mask set and I was in heaven! One of my biggest concerns was at home skin care, and she went through step by step, wrote out a plan for my home care and gave me a ton of great information. I've never had anyone take the time or be so willing to coach me on skin care outside of my appointments. That ALONE would have brought me back. I also had a waxing done and Alaena is efficient and gets you through it. She is completely professional and so reassuring that she will put you right at ease. They offer some really great packages and I recommend you take advantage! You WILL want to come back. It doesn't get any better than these two and for such great prices, you can't afford to NOT give them a try! read more

I had my first microdermabrasion facial with Alaena today. I told her all my concerns and she was very informative. She knows exactly what's she is talking about and strongly believes in all the products she uses and recommended to me. I ended up getting the package deal for 3 facials and I will be back for my second treatment in 2 weeks. For someone who wears foundation every single day, this facial is exactly what I needed and I left today feeling so rejuvenated. I struggle with extremely large pores, oily skin, and acne scars/dark spots. My ultimate goal is to not have to wear foundation anymore so I am so excited to see the progress with my skin! read more

I love coming here as I've been coming to Alaena for over a year now and drive all the way from Corona for her services. Extremely friendly and super professional and is quite thorough as my previous experiences with other businesses have not been the same. I will continue to see her and recommend her to anyone! read more

Alaena was quick to respond to my request for a facial and waxing appointment the next day. Her salon is located In her apartment and has all of the facial needs you would find at a salons without a high mark up. She is friendly and made my skin which has been stressed and tired look refreshed and glowing. My eyebrows were in need of a clean up and she did an amazing job on them as well. I would highly recommended her and will be back the next time I am in town. read more

My mom sent me the advertisement for The Healing Square, and let me tell ya... AMAZING! Alaena was so sweet and so kind! I told her all of my concerns with my skin and past experiences with some brands, that I now know are terrible. I have severe acne and Alaena gave me all the knowledge I need to know for what is good and bad for my skin, especially since I have extremely sensitive skin. The products she used felt amazing on my skin and I started seeing a difference within 12 hours. She's so down to earth and the environment is so relaxing! Definitely going again in 4 weeks, she's like my best friend now! read more

Wonferful and always super comfortable. Getting a Brazilian wax for the first time, she reassured me in everything that will happen. The pain wasn't as bad as I thought. She is super quick and talks to you the entire time and she uses this great wax from Paris. Wonderful. read more

Had my first brazilian and it was so much better than I expected! It was super quick, and Alaena made me feel comfortable and relaxed!

I texted Alaena from the help app, around 230 on Valentine's Day for a Brazilian was, assuming everywhere would be booked but hoping to get lucky, I received a reply within 5 minutes and was told she just had a cancellation and if I can get there quickly I can have that appointment! So it was already a good experience, when I arrived I forgot to note the studio number and had to ask around but the staff of the whole place was very nice and helpful. I met Alaena, she made me very comfortable, kept good natural conversation was relatable and funny! The actually waxing part was less painful then I remember a full Brazilian being, she uses hard wax, is quick and precise, took less then 10 minutes and the result was outstanding! Just a perfect result I was incredibly pleased, didn't leave with any sticky residue, haven't found a single stray missed hair. The price isn't too bad and it's extremely worth it, I have had worse waxed for way more money! So I would say including location, professionalism, other staff, product, price and preferred result I give this place a 10/10! Thank you Alaena! I don't live in town but I visit often and I believe I will be seeing you again! read more

Alaena did a wonderful job. She recommended products to use for my face. My face feel clean again and free from dirt. Can't wait for my next appointment next month. Thank you so much. read more

I had my first facial today with Alaena, she is very friendly and welcoming I felt very comfortable with her right away. She offers amazing services with great prices! My skin is very congested and she did an amazing job at getting my skin to breathe. I can't wait for my next visit! You must see her! read more

Had a great experience today with Alaena. My mom and I got facials with Alaena for the first time and we're very satisfied. Alaena was very friendly and knowledgable. She made us both feel very comfortable(it was my moms first time getting a facial). Alaena was very good and took care of my main concern blackheads! My skin feels super soft! Also we were able to get same day appointments which was great. Alaena recommended some great products for my skin type. Will definitely be back to try massage and facial package. Very reasonably priced. read more

Alaena is wonderful at what she does. First, her salon is very clean and organized. Second, she is confident, which is a must with getting waxed! She is as gentle as possible, and talks you through the entire waxing. She put me at ease, and I'll definitely be back. Thank you so much! read more

So I frequently see mommies in this group and others like it asking for recommendations for different services, and I know how hard it is for us to find time for ourselves to get the luxury things done (hair, nails, massages, etc). What's even harder is finding kid friendly places for the times when you have to drag your little one along. Wells ladies, I have done it. I found your wax girl. Today I had to take my son with me unexpectedly, and he WOULD NOT let go of me. Alaena at The Healing Square was AMAZING. She managed to quickly fulfill my appointment while my son literally lay on my face with a death grip and cry that only comes out at doctors appointments or nap time. I don't know how she did it, but she helped keep him calm and worked so fast I was in an out in less than twenty minutes. She adapted to the awkward position I needed to be in to hold my son and fended off my constant apologizing, telling me he was such a cute wonderful baby. I am so grateful for how understanding she was. Fellow mommies, let me convert you to a Healing Square fan, you will not be disappointed. read more

Like many others I purchased a Groupon to try this place out. I'm SO glad I did. Loved Chris & Alaena & My Massage was AMAZING & I was so relaxed after. Will absolutely be back read more

Amazing! Started off with a 50 minute massage, and it was wonderful, Chris does an awesome job, so relaxing. I have had a few massages and this was my favorite! Then I had a 50 min. facial by Alaena, it was great! She does a thorough job! My face was so soft! They are both very professional, and make you feel relaxed the entire time. I would highly recommend The Healing Square to anyone!!! read more

I had a shoulder sprain and Chris worked it out SO well!!! My back feels amazing. He's used techniques that I've never had done before and it was absolutely wonderful. And the facial was so relaxing. She got all of the gunk out and my face feels so fresh and amazing!!! Not to mention they are like the most wonderful and caring people, ever. Wonderful energies that they put out. Can't wait to come back!!! Thank you both, again. read more

BEST wax ever! The sweetest lady ever as well! Super clean and relaxing. Smooth as a dolphin.

So glad I found this place! My husband and I were on a little weekend getaway and wanted to get a couples massage. After browsing around on Yelp, I decided to make an appointment at The Healing Square. I got a massage while my husband enjoyed a facial- both were spectacular! I've had many really great (and not so great) massages in my life and this was definitely among the best I've ever had. Looking forward to making another appointment in the near future! read more

What a great set up. A very peaceful little spa right out of their home. I had an incredible 90min massage, followed with a fantastic 50min facial. I highly recommend going to see these people, they know their stuff. Great job! read more

So happy with the facials I have been getting with Alaena! Today was my second time going, and I honestly could not be happier. My face feels silky smooth after she is done.

I've been getting facials from Aleana for two years now, and my skin has never looked or felt better. Each time I go in she will customize the treatment based on my concerns or the status of my skin. The HydroDerm Facial is my favorite - so gentle and effective! Love the new location on Technology Drive too! I highly recommend! read more
