I drive by this business's attractive office frequently and have been curious for a while. I have spine problems chronically and usually use movement and stretching for some relief, but I really irritated my cervical spine nerves preparing for a yard sale. I called for an ASAP massage with someone who could work on almost intractable knots. The receptionist consulted with someone and said that Channing was the man. YES he was! Channing had hands of iron and unflagging energy. He addressed my neck and shoulders first, as they were my reason for coming, but went on to provide some relief for

What a great experience! To start, Kelly was super friendly and helpful when I booked the appointment. I had back pain from moving. It was the same pain I’ve had off and on for over 10 years. Channing gave me the most therapeutic massage. He got all the knots out and relieved the pain in only one session. I’ve had many massages but none as effective as the one I got at Handcrafted Healing yesterday. I highly recommend Channing.

Stefanie was AMAZING!!! She is such a good fit for me. I experienced her as nurturing, a good communicator, offering good pressure (as I like strong), and her specialty in Lomi Lomi Hawaiian flow massage is quite nice. I feel more relaxed and in flow in my body and like I have more capacity as a result of the massage. I am very glad I did the session & with Stefanie. Thank you Stefanie! Highly recommend!

I was kinda signed up for a membership here by my better half. I had no clue how good of a decision that was. The atmosphere is very professional and friendly. I was definitely shocked at just how in tune my massage therapist Channing was. I definitely have felt big changes after a few sessions and was given many helpful tips to do at home to help curb my stiffness and alleviate pain. I am now a big believer in this place and would recommend it to everyone.

Handcrafted Healing has really changed my life. I have PD. When I started one year ago I was in so much pain in my neck I didn’t know what to do. Lisa has been with me through my journey and she has saved my life. Lisa recommend that I try acupuncture with Sandra. That really helped my nervous system. I also suffer from terrible migraine headaches. Dawn has banished my headaches. Now I am on a new journey with Wendy. She has helped me so much with my whole body. I highly recommend Handcrafted Healing to everyone!

Can't follow directions or help with specific pain. It's just a relaxing massage place that cost twice as much as anywhere else.
I went in to fix a specific pain in my neck. I specified this 3 times.
Nothing was done about it.
I did recieve a relaxing massage, but it wasn't what I needed nor worth the price.

Amazing massage! I got a 2 hour therapeutic massage with Alex and it was one of the best I’ve had. As a Chiropractor (currently) and Massage therapist (previously), I am very picky about my massages. The front desk staff was great, very welcome and I felt like family as soon as I walked in the door.
Alex was very attentive and asked very detailed questions to make sure he address all areas of tension and any injuries I may have. He checked in throughout the massage to make sure the pressure was adequate or what I preferred. He allowed me to pick the music and decide which lotion and essential

Had my first ever massage here on a guest pass from a dear friend of mine. Holy wow, did I have a lot of unknown pain and tension in my body, including a couple of out of place bones! My therapist was gentle, easy to work with, supportive and attentive to my needs, and was so comforting in presence. If you need to let go of some things, feel more present and awake in your body, as well as relieved of physical pain, PLEASE give yourself a gift of a 90 minute session. Your body will thank you!

There was no pressure to do anything but come in and relax, before and after receiving our service. Covid 19 safe. Staff was friendly. I tried the Thai yoga for the first time with Debbi and she did a good job of setting the expectation and explaining the differences. My partner had Kelly, who was excellent and worked kinks out of her body she didn't realize were there. I would definitely return or recommend to others.

I'm just going to say that I'm happy to live only a few blocks away from here! This local gem is a keeper! I surprised my fiancé with a couples massage because lord knows how much we needed it!
Lisa & Dawn did everything and more than we expected! I had lots of tension on my back and we were both very sore from our workouts. They were genuine about our needs and left us feeling in a daze and so relaxed for the rest of the day. We loved every moment of it so we're definitely coming back!
Highly Recommend!

Amazing. I had a few days away with my best girlfriends and searched for a place that could take all 3 of us in St Pete's. Handcrafted Healing was super accommodating. From the moment we walked in until the moment we left, they were amazing. Everyone was properly wearing masks and was super friendly. All of the girls loved their 90 min massage and we would all go back... like tomorrow.

Such an incredible experience. Dawn what's really in tune with what my body needed. I've heard that from people before but I've never actually felt it for myself, so it was a really fascinating and wonderful experience. If I had any feedback it would be that there is a lot of talking and questions and she did such a good job to get me relaxed that it was hard to focus on the words she was saying during the massage. But at the same time I really appreciate it because she explained what she was going to do so that I understood the process. My only complaint is that they didn't

Just had another fabulous massage at handcrafted. I got to try the new guy Ryan, is very good he knows the muscles well and the trigger points also. His massage left me with better range of motion and feeling an all-over relief. I would highly recommend getting one of their packages or they do a monthly subscription, that way you have it on the books and you make sure you take care of yourself by getting a massage.

I have enjoyed massages at Handcrafted Healing for a few years now! Recently, I have started doing Reiki with Theraputic Massage with Rae! They have changed my life and become a regular part of my self care routine. I leave feeling relaxed and grounded. I signed up for the gold package so that I can start seeing Rae twice a month for healing. I'm so grateful to have found this spa and such a wonderful therapist.

Love this place! Great massage! Theresea was so wonderful. The place is super nourishing and relaxing!
We have a monthly membership to a massage franchise but this place has so many benefits that I may cancel that one!! This is a very authentic experience. Theresa gave a wonderful massage. We actually had deep tissue with the CBD oil. So therapeutic. I feel much more relaxed than normal. It wasn't rushed. Love the healing room with cucumber or lemon water. Teas and even a delicious healthy treat. Ashley was super nice too. I highly recommend!!

A hidden gem! The front desk was welcoming and friendly, and not at all pushy with sales when I inquired about some items.
Amanda "Rae" was my massage therapist and she did an excellent job. She was incredibly intuitive and had a great calm energy.
I would absolutely go again the next time I'm in Tampa.

I have been to handcrafted Healing several times for prenatal massages and it has always been a 5 star experience. Kelly Perkoski is a gifted and experienced masseuse who helps me relax and release tense areas. Her technique is excellent and she always asks me about areas of concern, making this a massage that's truly handcrafted for my needs. The front desk is super nice and the essential oils are great quality. The place feels clean and the atmosphere is relaxing. You can get complementary treats like a granola bar and water or tea at the end of your massage. If you are pregnant and need

I have been searching for a massage therapist like Kelli for such a long time. When you walk in its like visiting old friends you haven't seen in awhile! The atmosphere is so calming and inviting, I was completely at ease and immediately felt like I was in the right place finally! I could never express in words how talented and compassionate Kelli is with her guests. I left feeling balanced, calm, and she alleviated all my tension and body aches and pains! Please do yourself a huge favor and book your appointment... you will be so pleased and your search for a qualified, talented massage

Excellent experience! Steve welcomed me and was welcoming. My massage therapist was Kelly and she was friendly and prompt. I have experienced many massages over the years domestically and abroad. My friends recommended and I am glad I went, just sorry that I didn't go sooner. Kelly's service was first class. She has a healing touch and found all my knots. She adapted to my needs and addressed all my spoken and unspoken requests. The ambiance is very quaint, soothing, and relaxing. I chose a couple of essential oils to use; one was serenity and really helped to calm. They offer an attractive

After a long weekend of moving, I needed a massage, and chose HH.
Exactly what I was looking for.
Rae did a great job, and I felt awesome afterwards.
From the moment I stepped in the door, to when I left, I was made to feel welcome and comfortable.
The pricing is very fair, and the services offered are many and varied.
I'll be back.

Great location, amazing staff, and affordable prices!
I was looking for a local place where I'd be heard about what I needed and given personalized treatment. Kristina at Handcrafted Healing did just that, she asked for my preferences, made sure I was comfortable, and did an AMAZING job. She really tackled all the stress I held on my back and neck, and offered me some advice as to how to stretch out the muscles. She is also very knowledgeable on aromatherapy and we were able to bounce ideas back and forth on which oil combinations to use to help me in the future.
I HIGHLY recommend visiting

I went here with girlfriends and this was one of the best massages I have ever had in my life.
We called two days before and they were so sweet to accommodate three women at the same time. I loved the comprehensive intake form and how my masseuse saw me early, so that we could discuss my medical history.
My massage was nothin short of amazing. I had so much stress going in and came out on cloud 9.
The snacks, lovely water, relaxation room, and essential oil choices are nice touches as well. Next time I'm in St. Pete I will be returning.

I was in the area and was in desperate need of a massage. I wanted to try out cupping therapy for the first time. I came across this awesome massage clinic on Yelp and decided to purchase their $60 for $50 Yelp deal.
The location was easy to find. Kelly was extremely friendly and welcoming. I opted for the 60min cupping massage and it was fantastic from start to finish! She did a great job at targeting my problem areas (upper back/neck). The music and aromatherapy was a huge plus--super relaxing and comfortable. If you want a great massage then this is the place! Highly recommend!
