There is such a warm energy that you feel when you step into Healing Wizdom. It?s not just the great services they provide, but the compassion/friendliness of the staff that makes Healing Wizdom extra special. A conversation that you had...

Best in the west

Had a wonderful experience at Healing Wizdom spa in Reno on Plumb and Arlington. Though I thought I had never had a massage before, my daughter informs me that I had indeed. I guess it was not a memorable experience ?
I made an...

Awesome Spa Experience

I visited Healing Wizdom for a Brazilian wax. Kindra was calming and very professional. It was the easiest, least painful wax I have ever had! She included lots of extra touches that made my waxing experience relaxing and surprisingly...

Let me start by saying that my visits with Cheyenne at Healing Wizdom Salon and Spa have helped me more than I ever expected. I started seeing Cheyenne a few months back to try and help with the constant lower back pain I was...

Great Massage Therapy

Healing Wizdom has been a huge help for me. I started having neck and shoulder problems a couple of years ago. After seeing the chiropractor and visiting the doctor and taking Aleve on a daily basis for a couple of years to no avail. My...

Highly Recommended!

Tamara is a highly skilled stylist. Customer satisfaction is very important to her. I especially appreciate that she draws upon her own experience and expertise when working on color and cut. Definitely highly recommended!!!

Best facial in town

My facial at healing wisdom was an incredible experience all the way around. My esthetician, Erin, was amazing and I would highly recommend her and the spa to anyone. The atmosphere was relaxing and the staff accommodating. Erin's technique left me feeling totally rejuvenated and I especially loved the facial and upper body massage!

Great spa

I have been getting my brazilian waxes with Kendra, and she is amazing! The spa is so soothing and has a great energy. Kendra is great, she keeps the conversation going in an otherwise potentially awkward set up. She also gives you hot stones to hold and tells you when to breathe deep. I have yet to experience any kind of discomfort after the treatment. She's incredible, and the spa is hidden in a quiet corner of a great part of town with a great little spot for lunch right outside. Overall it's a very relaxing, enjoyable experience. Since coming here I've sworn off shaving all together! Highly recommended!

Reno's Best Spa

I went to Healing Wizdom to get a facial from Erin. She did an excellent job and exceeded my expectations. The experience was peaceful and relaxing. It is the best facial I have ever had and my friends commented on how good my skin looked the next day. Thanks Healing Wizdom!

Quick, painless waxing

After recently moving from Los Angeles, I was on the hunt for a great waxer. I read the reviews and settled on Healing Wizdom. I believe the owner was who worked with me and she was so sweet. It was a completely different experience then I've ever had before. She gave me warm stones to hold and laid a heated pad on my abdomen...and my favorite part, the "modesty towel". I would definitely recommend this spa and am planning on taking my friend who has never has a bikini wax before. It's perfect for someone who might be a little nervous. It was painless and quick!

This Place Rocks

I just had moved up to Reno from CA in July of this year. Finding a new place in a new town is uncomfortable for anyone who has to make this change. A few weeks after moving here I needed my hair done and I searched Yelp and had found the Spa and Hair Salon. I called up and THANK GOD Shirley from the Salon answered. She booked me the same day and my experience was awesome. I have since been back every 6 weeks or so for a new hair change. Shirley is very attentive and extremely easy to talk to.

After having my hair done with Shirley she let me know about the services at the Spa and I booked an appointment with Bryna to have my arm pits waxed having never done it before. Not only was it a perfect experience everyone at the spa made it a I have to come back in 4 weeks experience. Bryna is amazing and kind and gentle and sweet.

I could not imagine a better experience than I have had with the Salon and the Spa and would encourage anyone to try either one of them out.

Least painful brazilian EVER

This review is long overdue. I moved to Reno from San Francisco eight months ago and was in search of a good waxing place (eyebrows and brazilian) and based on the great yelp reviews decided to check this place out. This place is really as amazing as the reviews say it is.

I've been getting waxed since I was eighteen and as I moved around a lot I've been exposed to a number of different waxers. I have to say that this was the least painful experience I've ever had...maybe even bordering on relaxing side (yes, i didn't think that was possible either!). I've gotten several brazilian waxes by Kendra, and once was seen by Bryna. Kendra is confident and knows what she is doing--she's quick, helps you coordinate your breathing so that you experience a lot less pain as she pulls the wax off and the best part is, I no longer have any ingrowns! The warm towel on your belly, the hot rocks to hold on to and the post-wax products that they use make the dreaded ordeal seem more like a spa treatment. My experience w/ Bryna wasn't bad, but nothing compared to the quick and practically pain-free session w/ Kendra.

As for eyebrows, Tamara is the best. I may have to come back to Reno just for eyebrow waxes once i move back to SF! Even my husband noticed that my face looked prettier lol. I have had some eyebrow catastrophies in past w/ aestheticians taking way too much off and making my already chubby face look chubbier. Tamara leaves my eyebrows looking natural yet very well groomed. Also, I expect it is due to a combination of her expertise and the products that she uses, but I never have any post-waxing redness/scarring (which has been an issue in the past).

They're also really helpful w/ trying to accomodate clients. I'm a resident physician w/ a busy schedule and the girls on the phone are always trying to fit me in one way or another. Just last month I was running very late and Tamara ever so sweetly did my eyebrows over at her hair salon and was really nice about it!

Best in Town

I have to tell you, its really hard to find someone that is reliable, clean, reasonable in pricing and good at what they do. I have been coming here only for two months now. Erin is the best!!!!! She's very personable, and it was a pleasure sharing stories while she was removing my hair. I have been waxing for over ten years now and no one compares to her. Erin is professional, organized, detailed, and diligent.

Brazilian wonders.

I love this place! The entire staff makes you feel like you belong there for whatever reasons you are visiting. There is tea to start the process and smiles everywhere as the soft spa scents relax you. Kendra is my favorite, but then I've only been to her. I've been to other "spa"s for Brazilian waxes and never before had a tummy warmer pillow and a little mini-massage prior to a wax.

Kendra sets you at ease and makes you feel completely comfortable. She is wonderful at the art of distraction and is extremely quick as well as very thorough. The beds are of the highest quality and the entire atmosphere is designed to make you feel like you've left Reno and landed in a remote spa location. Healing Wizdom makes you wish that you didn't have to space your appointments so far apart and the staff makes you feel like a true friend.

Amazing Wax by Kindra

I would highly recommend Healing Wizdom and Kindra to anyone looking for a great experience with waxing. If it is your first time do not bother going anywhere else...Kindra made my experience with the Brazilian Wax a great one. She was professional, calming and was able to help with questions I had. She made me feel so comfortable and the calming lotion that is used afterwards topped the whole experience. From the front desk, the staff, the calming wax, the prices and the great cup of tea at the end I would recommend Healing Wizdom to all my friends.
Thank you so much Kindra, I look forward to my next visit =)

Not of Quality nor Professionalism

After reading the amount of positive reviews, I had high hopes for finally finding that "special" spa that would replace some of our local hot spots that have unfortunately closed their doors - Healing Wizdom is NOT that place.

Because it was my first visit, I was unaware that there were two locations within the complex. I sat there for 30 minutes before they realized the mistake due to the lack of professional greeting. No apology was given. I was sent on my way and that was that. The massage experience was comparable to their greeting - I have never been so tempted to call a massage to an early end but it was so much of a joke that it was almost laughable. The masseur could have been new, she definitely was not familiar with their computer setup. Hopefully, she will improve with experience. However, the front desk reception was inexcusable.
