What Clients Are Saying

My whole experience was excellent! Ericka made me feel very comfortable and confident about my skin. I walked in and it immediately smelled like a spa with a peaceful atmosphere. Ericka welcomed me and took the best care of me. I got the 60min High Touch Facial. She educated me on every product she was using for my skin and made valuable recommendations. The cooling mask was my favorite! I can’t wait to try the sample products and schedule my next appointment at your business. Thank you so much Ericka!!

Lydia

Ericka was great! She’s knowledgeable, professional, and welcoming. I truly enjoyed my facial and look forward to many more in the future.

Amy

I had an amazing facial with Ericka. Love the vibe of the place when you first walk in and love the room. The bed was cozy and comfortable. Ericka was very knowledgeable with the products and explained everything she was doing. She has a great touch, and I felt so relaxed. The hand and arm massage while my mask was on was just as amazing. I would highly recommend her!

Ericka was professional, informative, and put in care to ensure I had a great experience with my first facial. The atmosphere of A Healer’s Hand + The Nest was warm, inviting, and calming. I can’t wait to go back for my next appointment.

Melinda

I just had a terrific back facial with Aesthetician Ericka, whose skincare expertise comes through in her coaching and tips, also her confident, comforting touch and attention to all the details that make a top notch therapeutic spa experience. AHH is a lovely, welcoming environment: fresh, understated, classy, sophisticated. Treatment room was quiet and soothing with ultra plush table. I followed Ericka to HH/N for her excellent facials, now adding back facials to my routine.

Margaret

I thoroughly enjoyed my facial with Ericka. She customized it to my needs and I felt relaxed afterwards. I look forward to my next facial with her.

Mary

A friend recommended A Healer's Hand + The Nest for facial and massage services, and I cannot thank them enough! I've been seeing Ericka for skin care for over a year. Ericka's high-tech facials are incredible. I've done several of the options (iontophoresis, LED light therapy, cool peels) and have seen RESULTS. And her facial massages are always the best part. I'm in my early 40s and with Ericka's help, my skin has never looked better!
