Cooling off options are a gorgeous outdoor shower or just resting on the seat outside. No frills, just good vibes. Vela provides a basket for your personal items, towel, and optional sandals.

Price: $30/1hr - they want you to complete showering and dressing within the hour time slot.

Vela offers numerous services, including two types of saunas, which can be used as a standalone or add-on feature. The vibe was light and comfortable, the staff were very friendly and attentive. Even the clients were friendly and eager to recommend the services while I waited. I was pleased with both services. The only thing that keeps me from awarding five stars is the need to go up and down stairs to the treatment rooms. As someone with osteoporosis stairs can be a challenge and took some of the relaxation out of my experience. Nonetheless, I would definitely recommend Vela.

Having just got out of the hospital, again, and lying in bed for 2 weeks I was desperate. For some reason I was lead to Gentle Dragon in Penn Valley, and Zeora's intuitive touch.

Choices of massage oil and modalities I hadn't experienced before. I am grateful and have booked my next session already.

I have now received two of the most nurturing, soft yet, deep massages, that soothed my body and soul. I deeply appreciate her ability to sense what the client needs. Which ultimately affects the essence of a person. This is where I can feel Vive working on a whole other level of consciousness. As a Reiki practitioner, I bring Reiki to the session because I can and I believe in it. I've never asked her about Reiki so she maybe she already has that training, but regardless Vive meets me with the same healing energy that I recognize as Reiki. Perhaps it's unconscious but I don't think so. I believe Vive is simply special because she naturally flows the Reiki energy I understand, as well as a technically proficient massage. After these sessions, I feel deeply seen and spiritually connected. This helps me on so many levels. I let go, I surrender, I feel safe enough to relax, my body softens and my soul rests, it's so healing! Thank you Vive!!

I had a pampering deep tissue massage experience that combines the therapeutic pressure of deep tissue work with relaxing, spa-like comfort. The massage usually began in a calm setting with soft music, warm lighting, aromatherapy scents, heated towels, a warm massage table. Darby used firm, slow strokes and focused pressure to work into deeper layers of muscles and connective tissue. This helps release chronic tension, tight knots, stiffness, and stress buildup--especially in areas like the neck, shoulders, back, hips, and legs. After the session, I felt completely melted into relaxation. Awesome feeling! Book a session w her right now and u will not regret it. And ...... u r very welcome!!!!
