If you want to relax and have some healing then I recommend Urban Rituals. They make you feel welcome and comfortable. Candy has a strong healing energy. One session impacts me for weeks. read more

Candy provides a top tier luxurious service. Everything about her is just wonderful. I have massages from dozens, if not hundreds, of therapists over the years and I can unequivocally say that Candy is among the best. I'm a runner and she really listened to what I said and addressed all of my issues with what I can describe as a bespoke massage - tailored to my needs, not just a cookie cutter series of strokes. I feel great afterwards, my legs feel terrific and I'm really shocked at how loose my hips feel. I don't even remember her working on them specifically, but I was halfway in a trance like state of pleasure so I'm not sure how accurately I really remember things. In any event, she uses an Esalen technique which feels amazing - she works north-south instead of east-west like every other massage I ever had. Maybe it's my meridians or something, but it was very therapeutic. I do also remember that the overall energy of her touch was incredible. Will definitely come back many times, and try some of the other services she offers on her website, including reiki. read more

Candy is a caring and loving massage/healing therapist. My husband who was going through cancer treatment found her therapies to be centering and therapeutic. We had her services in her space on Midway as well as at our home. She is a gift to San Diego! read more

Love my facials and massages with Candy! I have never been a "regular" when it comes to facials, but Candy has done such wonderful things for my skin that I keep looking forward to coming back! I love that she uses cutting edge treatments and high quality organic skin products. I love her high frequency tool, red light therapy, microcurrent, and all the other fun therapies she thoughtfully throws into the mix! She truly cares about the work that she does and it shows through her ever-evolving skin protocols and helpful knowledge. She has healed my recent skin flare up and now we are working on maintenance and strengthening my facial muscles with microcurrent. I used to bounce around to different estheticians but Candy has changed that- I love it here! read more

I'm very glad I found Urban Rituals based on their yelp reviews. As a birthday present to myself I decided to try a massage with cranial sacral treatment at the end. Candy is very knowledgeable and attuned to the needs of your particular body. I have chronic pain so we chatted about that first and she explained the cranial sacral experience possibilities to me. The massage table was heated so I was nice and cozy which helped me to relax. While I like massages I have to combat my anxiety while getting them and it was easier to do so on her table than in other massage environments I've been in. She space invites peace. She also did a great job of modifying pressure as needed through out the massage. And as for the cranial sacral portion, it was a very moving and almost spiritual experience. I'll keep my experience private since it was a very personal moment. But Candy was right that it does help reset your nervous system. If I lived closer, I'd come back more frequently, but I'll have to save coming for next time we want to get away. You are in safe, expert hands with Candy! read more

Candy gave me an amazing facial and was so nice and had a very calming energy. Her place is very pleasant and relaxing. Awesome experience she one of the best around. read more

A massage by Candy is truly transforming. She balances the perfect amount of pressure per my request with relaxing and therapeutic techniques. The environment is clean, calming & comfortable. I gave the green light for her choice of music and her taste in massage music was as good as the massage itself. read more

Candy is the best at what she does. Her warm demeanor and positive energy creates a welcoming atmosphere. Her skilled technique and amazing touch always leaves me feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated. I highly recommend her services! read more

Received a facial from Candy and it was absolutely amazing. She let me know of all the products she was putting on my face and was an overall super relaxing experience. I am so glad I found her salon because I definitely will be returning for more facials from her. Bonus note: she asked me to send a photo of what products I had and sent me a great skincare routine for AM and PM. read more

Candy is fabulous at what she does. The first time she worked on me she asked me what I wanted her to focus on. I have lower back issues and that's what I had her focus on. She did her magic and I felt amazing for weeks after her treatment. I've had several therapists before but nothing compares to the work Candy does. Thank you,, Candy! I look forward to our next session! read more

I got the BEST facial and massage by candy. My skin felt so rejuvenated and airy afterwards, plus she was so friendly and personable. Can't wait to book another. read more

Fantastic! I've been a massage therapist for 25 years and I loved my massage and facial combo with Candy. So easy to book, and right before my flight, perfect timing! Thank you Candy you're an amazing healer! read more

I got the Yogisagge massage and facial combo. The massage was perfect! She did the perfect pressure and continued to make sure the pressure was ok throughout the service. A perfect mix of stretching, relaxation & working with lots of tension. She also provided hot stones and hot towels. The facial was amazing! Relaxing but also effective and Candy was so educational on skincare being holistic. This package is perfect & came with all the bells and whistles. LED light therapy, microdermabrasion, thorough extractions, just amazing. Will definitely go back and recommend her to everyone! read more

Candy was absolutely amazing! She knows her stuff. The room and table were top notch as well. I love her use of the hot stones. Worth every cent!!! read more

Candy Iverson has been my massage therapist, esthetician, and friend for years. When you tell her your problem areas when it comes to massage, you can tell she has studied the human body and how to heal it because she really has helped me heal many times. I work on my feet all day as a hairstylist so I am regularly in pain in my arms, lower back and legs. Since she became an esthetician, she has really gotten deeper into her practice everyday! She listens and pays attention to sensitivities and problem areas with my skin. Her room at her practice is so beautiful, peaceful, and calming and her product line she uses, 'Eminence', is super soothing and amazing! I also love this LED red light therapy she does when she massages. So warm and comforting! GO SEE HER! You will not regret it! read more

Candy has magic hands. I have been going to her for massage therapy for over 4 years, and she has the perfect balance of strength, poise and a great attitude to go with it. I've been active my whole life, a former gymnast and dancer. Now as an adult, I plan to stay active. Candy's practice has helped so much to keep my neck and shoulder pains manageable. I can't recommend her enough. Athletes: tell her what is tight and she is fantastic at focusing on specific areas. read more

Candy was spectacular in every way! She was so warm, friendly, professional and just did wonders for my skin. You need to book with Candy, immediately! read more

So glad I went to Candy! I've never felt comfortable about my skin and I wanted to gift myself with finally investing in my skin, and I am SO glad I did. I really can't remember that last time my skin looked this good. It was such a great session not only for my skin but for me, it was so relaxing and therapeutic. Thank you! read more

I have been remiss in not writing a review for Candy. We have a home in Healdsburg that we visit when it's not rented on VRBO or AirBNB. Every time I know we are going to Healdsburg, I look forward to my 2-hour massage with Candy! It was six months since my last visit to her, and surprisingly, she remembered details about me that only someone who really cares about their clients would remember. I get a lot of massages due to imbalanced hips and soreness, and she is truly the best I see! As someone else said, her hands are like magic. My only wish was that she moved to Capitola or Santa Cruz so I could see her more often! read more

Candy is a facial queen! I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience. First of all, her room is beautiful, clean, comfortable, and very inviting. A great location in Little Italy, super accessible and easy to find. Candy is very knowledgeable when it comes to my skin concerns and the tools/ products she uses. I came to Candy with certain issues about my skin that I wanted to address and she went above and beyond to really help me out. Not only did I get an amazing facial, but I was relaxed and in the zen the whole time. SHE. IS. AWESOME! I highly recommend her for any and all your esthetic needs. And I will definitely be seeing her on the reg to keep my skin looking glowy and young!! read more

I enjoyed a facial-massage package with Candy and was absolutely thrilled/ delighted / amazed by her top-notch service. An esthetician who knows her stuff and is a fantastic massage therapist?! Basically the facial felt like a decadent myofascial massage, but what she was really doing was applying all the goodies: cleansers, exfoliants, masks, serums, etc (even her extractions were gentle but effective!). Her massage was perfection. I don't remember when I've been so relaxed. A++! read more

Had an awesome massage by Candy! Very relaxing atmosphere, will definately be going back

I have recently started once a week massages with Candy Iverson! I have been a massage therapist for 22 years and I have not found anyone remotely is good as her! She pays attention to detail and puts a lot of love into her work both in massage and facial. I love the hot stones and warm towels! She uses doToterra essential oils as well as amazing music to soothe the soul I would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for regular bodywork and I know that she is going to corner the massage market in Healdsburg! Treat yourself don't cheat yourself make an appointment today!!!! KONA") read more

As a massage therapist of 20 years and an esthetician of 6 years, you can say I'm very selective about finding a stellar service provider! Candy is excellent in her expertise of both massage and esthetics, but she also brings what all of us want in a provider. She brings compassion, sincerity, and professionalism with a true desire to give you the customized treatment you need. Her magic hands and big heart are just undeniable, and melting away into relaxation and bliss only minutes into the treatment are a consistent and reliable gift to receive! I recommend anyone to see Candy whether they need pampering &/or working out the muscles with intuitive, deep tissue finesse. In facials and body waxing you will be equally impressed with her attention to detail and precision. Find Candy for a divine rejuvenating experience and you will find you've made a new friend for life who loves to help bring you into balance in health and beauty!!! Bonus points for being in one of the most beautiful parts of the California wine country in lovely downtown Healdsburg. :)) read more
