I've been getting massages fairly regularly for several decades and I try to sample whatever's locally prevalent when I travel. Manila or Moscow, Sydney or Singapore, Amsterdam or Austin - I've experienced many methods and modalities around the world. By no means does this make me an expert, but I do like to imagine that I've become reasonably discerning about what's good and what's not. I've had horrible and great massages, and my "best" and "worst" have a big range between them. Ironically, I have lived near Bella Healing Therapy for years before finally giving them a call and going in for a session. Do you know how, when a doctor asks you "how bad does it hurt, from 1 to 10," you think about the worst pain you've ever felt in order to quantify your "10"? Your own personal ten has probably been reset a few times (not too many, I hope) as you experience more things. If you've had more than a few massages, you can probably come up with a similar scale - "how good was your massage, from 1 to 10?" - to rate those experiences. After visiting Bella Healing Therapy, my previous 1-to-10 massage scale has been compressed down to about a 1-to-7. My recent session with Sam at Bella Healing Therapy redefined my 10. It was such a great session that I feel like I want to track down the last 20+ years of massage therapists, bring them all to visit Sam, and tell them "see, now THIS is how it's supposed to be." After my first visit I booked a session with Sam for my wife within just a few days (she LOVED it), and a return visit for myself just a few days after that to see if it was really as amazing as I remembered (it was). I'll certainly be going back, and I've started evangelizing Bella Healing Therapy to folks I know who could really benefit from a good massage. The booking process couldn't be simpler - it's all online and quite straightforward. Canceling and rescheduling is just as simple. Parking is scarce - I've parked in the street, at metered spots, for my visits - but for only a few bucks at a meter, that's not really an issue. Don't expect any big signage; you're not going to drive past it and think "oh, look, massage! I should check them out"- you need to know it's there (but if you're reading this review, that's not an issue either). If you have any trouble finding the place, persevere - it's worth it. Sam has been my therapist for both of my visits so far, although I'll soon book with Kat - I must assume that Sam would only hire someone equally amazing. As far as the actual massage, it was unlike anything I've previously experienced. Sam seemed to seamlessly blend multiple modalities, adjusting her technique and her areas of emphasis almost instinctively and demonstrating an apparent keen understanding of the body's structural and muscular system. She reveals, in her touch and her demeanor, what feels like genuine caring for her clients, rather than a disinterested and mechanical muscular manipulation. Truly, "healing" and "therapy" are both well-chosen words for the name of this business, as Sam brings both of these things in abundance. 10/10, highly recommended, will return. read more

Sam is a genuine and gifted person. Her sessions are rooted in care, love, openness, and no judgment. I have found her to be easy to talk with, curious and gentle in her approach, and clear with her feedback. I can't recommend her enough. read more

Had a good friend recommend that I try Reiki type energy healing with Samantha to help improve my lack of energy and pain I was going through because of personal tragedy throughout life. I didn't know what to expect and kept an open mind because I was willing to try anything at this point. Samanthas work, I don't know exactly what she did or how she did it... but I felt it!!! I can't explain it... it's just an amazing feeling of warmth, comfort, and energy that you can't put into words and I felt amazing afterwards. I've gone to her now 3 times in the past 4 months and will be continuing to go to her every time I need a pick me up! I am so grateful for my friend Hannah who recommended me to her!!!!!.... And of course grateful to Sam as well! Ha read more

Sam and Kat are incredible massage therapists and are expert at creating an extremely relaxing environment. From the music to the aromas to the massage itself, it is all top-notch. A+++++ read more

Supremely overpriced for the actual massage. I wish I could have my time and money back.

I have been to Bella Healing twice now. I honestly had little to no expectation and was seeking a local and safe massage. What I got instead was an amazing experience in relaxation, energy work and healing. Thank you so much! I look forward my future sessions. read more

Sam and Kat are great. I've had sessions with both and could not be happier. Best massages I've gotten and I'll keep coming back.

One of the BEST MASSAGES i have ever received. Her office is super clean. Very organized. Smells great and has great decor that will catch your eye. When i first met Sam, she was super professional. We sat across from each other while she had a clipboard with questions she wanted to ask. General questions that should always be asked but usually are not (from other places i have gone to). She applied the perfect amount of pressure in all the correct places to send to send my mind and body into a frenzy. One thing that i wish would be different would be if I could make same day appointments. read more

This is the worst massage place I have been to. They are not easy to schedule. The response time is more than a day. Then if you make an appointment they change it saying that time is taken. Parking is a big issue there is no parking on the site. Lastly it is very expensive and definitely not worth the price. All in all there are far better friendlier more efficient less expensive and better therapists. read more

I randomly found this place and I'm glad I did! I had a massage, reiki and tarot reading from Sam and she was amazing! Would definitely recommend it. read more

If you're looking for a massage therapist that will actually listen to what is bothering you, and help get your body back in tune, you've come to the right place! Sam gave me the best massage!! Plus, her place is clean and smells amazing! I highly recommend for anyone! read more

I've been getting therapy from this place for 5 years. And my sleep quality have improved significantly. Highly recommend.

Therapist was great! Massage helped with me not able to move my head. Only reason for 4 stars is parking wasn't good and there were people in the other room making noise so it wasn't that peaceful but the ambience and therapists were great! read more

Everyone I've met at bella healing therapy has been amazing. Very welcoming, accommodating, and professional! Covid protocols, cleanliness, and distancing are all in practice at their office. For massages Samantha is my favorite, her hands are incredible and she really takes what you'd like from the massage into consideration. I feel completely comfortable with her and she has a very calming presence. I recently had the opportunity to do some energy work with Sam and it was amazing. I was a little skeptical at first about it considering it was my first time and she made me a believer. Highly recommend visiting her for a full session with Reiki. read more

Absolutely perfect. What a pleasant experience. Samantha has just the right touch for healing and therapy. She knows exactly where the pressure points are and where to apply that pressure and where not to. Her office is very clean pleasant and zen. Definitely felt very relaxed as soon as I walked in and and even more relaxed when I left. She has a beautiful smile, she is kind, sweat yet very knowledgeable and confident. There was nothing to worry about. I Highly Recomend you give Samantha a try, she is excellent at what she does. read more

This place is amazing! Best massage I've EVER had. The room is clean, calm and smells great. Kathrine was my massage therapist. We discussed my sore/tight areas and she addressed all of them. I walked out floating on air! I'll be going back many times. read more

First time for me visiting Bella healing therapy. Amazing experience. Clean/inviting facility very welcoming, great ambiance. Aside from some physical therapy years ago I had not had any self care in awhile. Left my appointment feeling brand new and rejuvenated. Before the session Sam broke down any questions/concerns, extremely professional which I appreciated greatly. Rare gem tucked away in Woodland Hills on topanga canyon. read more

Bad service ... Sam is very rude ... I'd go somewhere else ... she doesn't focus on pain areas ... she just keep rubbing your body with oil that's all ... it's not a real massage at all . read more

I've been here twice and both times the massage has been excellent. I've tried other massage places in the area and from my perspective this is the best. I highly recommend. Kat is extremely nice, will focus on areas that are bothering you and takes her time. It's a great place to get a massage. read more

I am absolutely in love with SAMs amazing hands! She took out every knot and every piece of stress in my body! I now have found my go to girl to release my stress, thoughts and set free though her magic of her hands! I have had a severe injury in my past of a broken back, and she knew exactly how to treat that section with the perfect care! Thank you Sam for setting me carefree and for sending me home to the best sleep I've had in months! read more

Samantha gave the most amazing massage. I was so sore coming in and afterward, I felt like a new person. Even in my first session, she was so intuitive to my needs. I can't recommend her enough! I get a lot of massages, but I'm only coming to her from now on. Plus, I smelled amazing and my skin was so soft. Amazing place! read more

The best massage ever. The touch was amazing, very relaxing and refreshing. I have seen Sam so many times now and I keep coming back. Flexible with my schedule and will always try to accomodate which days and time will works for me. Highly recommended. read more

first time getting a message had an amazing experience. very comforting and relaxing.nice enviroment and reasonable price i will totally be back there. She new all my pressure points and really worked my knots read more

I am extremely picky about who massages me and the type of massage I get but Sam was highly recommended to me by a friend so I decided I would try her as my masseuse is on maternity leave. Well, I hate to say it but I will not be going back to my normal girl as Sam gave the best massage I have ever gotten!!! (I get a massage at least once a week) She was incredible and I didn't have to tell her to adjust her style once. Her location is great and really sets the mood for a wonderful experience. I can not wait until the next time she can see me! And I totally owe my friend for recommending her to me! Go see her, I promise, you will not be disappointed! read more

I've seen a lot of massage therapist in my life, and I can honestly say Samantha is the Best I've ever seen. From the beginning two the end, I am more relax then I've ever been. Samantha knows exactly what she is doing and that's Great, so all I have to do is enjoy. She has a Client four life. THANKS! read more
