• Sarah & Antonio- Spa Proprietors/ Sarah: Licensed Esthetician

    We bought this beloved local spot to put down roots in McKinleyville, raise two wild boys, and keep community self-care thriving.

    Meet the team:

    Sarah — your go-to for scheduling (call her at (707) 839-7772). Former dental assistant, newly licensed esthetician, BS in Business, AS in Dental Science, Certified Soul Purpose Coach, and organic skincare formulator. She’s still learning new facial and body treatments and will happily nerd out about spa routines, teeth, astrology, llamas, Lil Wayne, and preventative health. Quirky, warm, and inviting—expect encouragement to be gloriously yourself.

    Antonio — Cal Poly Humboldt math grad and proud Pomo tribe member.

    We’re grateful to hold space for people to give and receive the gift of self-care. Come say hi (and bring llamas if you have them).

    Anastasiya “Nastya” Yudinova -Licensed Massage Therapist

    Dear Visitor,

    I’ve always felt drawn to helping people. My journey to ​becoming a healer started with massage school in ​2010, which felt rewarding. After working in the field ​for several years, I felt something new needed to be ​incorporated into my practice to help me find fresh,

    innovative ways to address clients’ needs. This brought me to Reiki, a form of ​energy healing, which amplified my ability to intuit client concerns, find trouble ​zones, and bring multi-layered healing to those on my table. Soon after, ​Ayurveda, a holistic Indian medicine system, peaked my interest. I spent the ​next 4 years learning and putting my new knowledge into direct client care. ​Learning how natural elements interact in the body and how they present ​themselves when in or out of balance, provided a deeper understanding of the ​layers and complexity of the human body. Some years later, I completed my ​undergrad and graduate degrees in Kinesiology, where anatomy and ​physiology were some of my favorite topics. Merging my eastern and western ​knowledge into a holistic and highly customized approach to my clients needs ​is how I achieve the best results I possibly can for each of them. Of course, my ​work is not complete without the client’s participation in self-care to carry on ​our work form each session for lasting benefits.

    I look forward to getting to know you and speaking about the goals you have ​for your body and wellbeing!
