Essential Elements Spa - McKinleyville, California

Essential Elements is one of the best places for a relaxing massage! I have a hard time relaxing, and Nessa had me so relaxed I was drooling! My husband and I celebrated our anniversary there and staff went above and beyond to make our celebration special and comfortable. Highly recommend! I try to go monthly because these massages have helped me so much physically and mentally!

The Relaxation massage was excellent, I was a bit nervous as it was the first massage Id booked on my own, but Jennifer had fantastic communication and listened to exactly what I needed. I had a large scrape on my shin and she had no problem working around it!
I booked a facial with Lucia as well and she is just the sweetest, my face felt amazing and she gave me recommendations at the end to improve my skin health. Absolutely returning.

This was my second time being treated at Essential Elements Spa. The first time I got a
prenatal massage (which was wonderful) and wanted to test out the vibe and professionalism before I booked a larger spa package.

I was so happy after my initial visit that my husband booked me the Queen for a Day Package. When I arrived for my spa day, the waiting room was bright, clean, beautifully decorated, and very welcoming with some soothing and fun music playing. Then out came Cooper, the cute mascot of the spa. He is very mellow, if you’re a dog person you’ll love seeing this guy around!

Stephanie, (the owner) walked me through how to operate the high-tech dry sauna, paying special attention to the temperature as I am 7 months pregnant. She also showed me how to operate the Vichy rain shower, and left me to start unwinding. The sauna was great, I prayed and stretched and loosened up. Then came the sugar scrub and dry rub which felt so nice and exfoliating, then I rinsed that off in the Vichy shower which is super relaxing. The organic shampoo conditioner and body wash smells so good! After this began my prenatal massage. Stephanie was so kind, knowledgeable, and gave a great massage! She was so gentle when needed and firm in the spots I had mentioned needed more attention. It was amazing!

After this came my facial. Yvonne was extremely knowledgeable, talented and super nice as well. She gave me multiple suggestions and explained what she was doing with each procedure. She was trained by doctors, so she’s very professional. All in all, I loved every moment of this day!! Such a wonderful treat I booked another package. Best spa in Humboldt!

I absolutely love my monthly appointments here!
My massage therapist Nessa is a dream. She makes me feel comfortable at all times which helps my body and mind relax so I can drift away. Her focus and mindfulness while working on trouble areas is above the rest. I really appreciate my sessions with her and my body does too!

Aries is my esthetician and I am so GRATEFUL to have found her! My skin is constantly changing and she pays attention and adjusts to what my skin needs. Her knowledge and application to detail is one of a kind. She is extremely friendly and a beautiful soul. My skin is forever glowing because of her!

Essential Elements Spa provided a wonderful experience. The setting was peaceful, and the treatments were excellent. Nessa, in particular, did a phenomenal job. I walked out feeling revitalized and happy. Definitely worth a visit!

The very best massage of my life by Faith, and wonderful facial by Sarah. Two lovely ladies made a wonderful spa day for my daughter and I.

What a supremely sublime experience. From the moment you enter the space and remove your shoes in favor of their spa sandals (very comfortable) you are awash in gentle relaxing energy. I've never been to a spa where the energy was this perfect. I was greeted warmly and as a new client had the classic paperwork to fill out. The front desk provided me a heavenly cup of tea while I did the paperwork.

My therapist was Sarah, immediately her energy was bright and welcoming. I knew I was in good hands (very literally) I got a 90 minute massage called "the works" I highly recommend it. Sarah applied a local full spectrum CBD, used hot stones seamlessly in her swedish massage. I floated in Nirvana for the entire service. Her pressure was perfect and her point work extremely intuitive. 100/100 I highly recommend the location and Sarah herself. Possibly the best experience I've ever had at a spa. And I've been a massage therapist for 13 years.

My birthday gift this year was The queen for a day package. I had an amazing day and was pampered throughout the day but several different staff members. The massage was one of the best I've ever had. My facial was relaxing and super informative. The staff went above and beyond and were all very friendly and welcoming. My only feedback is please get bigger robes and have treatment person come to sauna to get guest. I felt like I couldn't fully relax in sauna because I had to keep checking clock to not miss next treatment. Other then those two things I highly recommend this spa.
