Dr. Nikki is an extremely skilled practitioner. Getting adjusted by her completely turned my day around-- she does great soft tissue work as well as took the time to listen carefully to my concerns. And the Wellness Lounge was a nice and calming atmosphere, and I will definitely be coming back to this business!I have also gotten a massage with Daniela and it was fabulous! Her attention to detail in the body is amazing, and she got my request for pressure levels perfect!
Wellness Lounge is such a high quality and caring place to come for holistic support, love and care. My husband and I have been seeing Kara for over 4 months now and she is one of the most caring and knowledgeable acupuncturists Ive ever worked with. She prioritizes individualized education and care specific to each of her clients needs and always does something unique to what I need support with when I come in. I would highly recommend this wellness group to anyone I know!
I came in for fire cupping and Kara is amazing! She is very informative and was able to help relieve a lot of the pain I came in with, I left feeling brand new! Will book again! Thanks a bunch!
I had my first appointment with Dr. Nikki today and it was amazing. I got a 30 min massage and an adjustment. The massage was the best I’ve ever had and she really worked out some pain I’ve had in my shoulder for years. She was a pro at finding all the sore spots and was incredibly strong! I can’t wait to go back!!!
Vanessa was amazing. I was nervous and she made me feel comfortable. She put me ad ease with her knowledge and her approach. I literally felt like I was in a trance when she was done! I was so relaxed. I immediately made another appt. I know working with her will be important for my growth in my weight loss journey. She knows my goals and wants to set me and my body up for success. I’ve already told friends they should go to her and everyone in google land should do the same.
I was so grateful Kara had an opening for acupuncture, I was in a minor car accident and needed some help with the pain & stiffness in my body. Kara is amazing and truly takes the time to address any and all issues I have, I wish I could see her every week!
Alexis is a very sweet and energetic person. She treated me with respect and care. Strong and soft at the same time. Interest conversational moments. Amazing experience. Thank you!
Alexa was amazing. I am in pt and she knew how to accommodate for my neck issues and Improve the pain. Would highly recommend her. Everyone i met was very friendly there
Dr. April is amazing at what she does! She is a great practitioner and her offering is very unique. She is dual licensed as a massage therapist and chiropractor, a rare combination. She also provides fire cupping during the treatment if desired. I leave her office relaxed, in parasympathetic state every time. If you’re looking for a blend of modalities to be done in a single treatment look no further.
Dr. Darina did a wonderful job. Very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. She explained everything she was doing and my body felt great after the chiropractic session.
My daughters bought me a massage as a gift. I didn’t realize the depth of the massage and its benefits. April is beyond excellent. I feel amazing, so much looser. The massage is intense- (April would definitely make it less if you were feeling uncomfortable). I however wanted the benefit of her expertise, and she did not disappoint. I will be returning, especially when I found the health benefits. Thank you April 🙏
I had my first craniosacral massage last week. My naturopathic doctor recommended it for me as Im hypermobile and have a torn labrum and osteoarthritis in my hip. I didnt know what to expect and the whole experience was wonderful. She accommodated my need to lie down sitting up (since my back goes into spasm otherwise) and I felt so renewed and refreshed after the treatment. I have another appointment booked and Im excited to see how my pain level improves over time.
Its always a great massage from Vanessa. Shes not just a routine massage therapist, she actually works those trouble areas.
Wellness Lounge is great! Knowledgeable therapists, easy online booking system, helpful front desk staff and they offer lots of great specials. Highly recommend!If you want the best massage of your life, book with Vanessa!
The 90 min massage is incredible. Vanessa is acutely aware of what needs to be done and does a great job. I will be back!
Dr.Nikki has such a welcoming presence. I rated 5 stars for the quality of her massage & cupping today! I also like to see her for chiropractic care :)
I love getting massages at this place, best quality massages I’ve ever had. Vanessa always does an amazing job and she is super friendly and easy to talk to. I always walk out of my massage feeling wonderful and looking forward to my next visit. Vanessa is a fantastic massage therapist for everyone, especially those looking for pre and postnatal massages.
My massage with Chelsea Denien at the Wellness Lounge was truly wonderful! She listened to my requests and was not shy about applying deeper pressure I had requested to my tense shoulders and upper back. I appreciate how she integrates other massage treatment options, such as gua sha and cupping. I felt fully relaxed and had a great experience here. I hope to return soon! Thank you, Chelsea!
Chelsea was informative, supportive, reassuring and friendly. I had an accident which caused some trauma for my body and a member of a tinnitus support group suggested a cranial sacral massage. I had no idea what to expect but I was open to it. Chelsea has healing hands and her sensitive manner was what I needed. Excellent experience! The Lounge has a restorative vibration and Anna, out front, was friendly and welcoming. Thank you. Beverly
My mom and I came to get massages while in town for a work trip. We chose Wellness Lounge due to its location close to our hotel and the good reviews. We were not disappointed! Ella gave an amazing deep tissue massage and spent time with me after giving me tips on other things I can do at home to keep my muscles feeling good. Jennifer gave my mom a great relaxing massage. We would both absolutely come back again if we were in town.
I came into my first chiropractic experience super nervous. I have been dealing with some pretty severe anxiety which have left the muscles in my upper body SUPER tense. After just one session, the tension went away like 20% and my breathing got better, my shoulder didnt hurt as much and the muscles that were hurting seem to have found some relief.I am so grateful for Rebecca and her knowledge of the nervous system and how we hold emotions in our body. Shes amazing!
Ive been going to the wellness lounge for prenatal massage & chiropractic. Vanessa is a miracle worker. Her massage technique is the perfect blend of muscle work and relaxation.
Rebecca La has been a life saver! She is extremely good at sorting out the source of aches and pains. I see her regularly for chiropractic but she has a much more in depth approach than your basic chiropractor does. She give me great tips and suggestions to help maintain the work and progress we make in session. I’d highly recommend her for any chiropractic needs you may have!
Fantastic massage. Let feeling so much lighter and flexible! Thank you Vanessa so much.
I loved my first time experience massage with Vanessa! Her style incorporates Thai, deep tissue, shiatsu and its a wonderfully blended massage. You are in such good hands with Vanessa. I cant wait to book another massage!
The environment and care provided by Dr. Austin Abbruscato was superb! She took the time to hear my needs with the utmost care and discussed with me how she would go about treating me.The different treatments that I received from her addressed all of my specific needs. She has great Chiropractic knowledge that brought a lot of comfort to me - I felt that I was in the best of hands! I look forward to my next visit!
Wellness Lounge, specifically Darina, has given me a new lease on life. At 71, and having a very active lifestyle, I have well earned aches and pains, arthritis and osteoporosis. Darina has improved my flexibility in 2 treatments through her vast knowledge and exercises for home treatment. I am looking forward to a healthier body with Darinas help. I have hiked on my last 2 birthdays and can now plan on where I shall hike for my 72 birthday! Thanks Darina!
I’ve been seeing Dr. Rebecca for some aches in my low back whenever I bend down. This was my first chiropractic experience and I was really nervous about the adjustment. However, Dr. Rebecca is so kind and thorough so I knew I could trust her. Since my first appointment, the adjustments have been great (I love the neck cracks) and though painful, I appreciate the work that goes into getting the knots out of my hamstrings. I wish I had seen her sooner! But, I’m so glad that I found her and will continue seeing her. Thank you!
I prefer Wellness Lounge because after every service they take the time to educate you on what’s causing the discomfort and what to do to prevent it. Dr. Austin is awesome, I have been going to her for years. Today, I had an appointment with Kara and she was great! I will definitely continue coming here. They provide 5 star service all the time at every single one of their locations.
Great massage today with Elly. She helped work through my training soreness with massage and cupping. Easy booking online and a good value for excellent service. Will be back again soon!
I had a prenatal massage session with Kara today. I had a great experience and fully recommend her for other moms-to-be. Shes very knowledgeable and provides insight and tips on how to improve your muscles and posture. Look forward to my next massage with her!
This was my first time doing acupuncture in my whole life! I’ve been dealing with Achilles’ tendon pain since the end of December 2021, and decided to finally give acupuncture a try. Walking into the office, the ambiance was very comfortable, and was greeted with a warm welcome! Kara is very thorough! She’s super knowledgeable and instantly had trust in her that she can help me with my issue! I look forward to coming back for more acupuncture with Kara!
I just had my first massage, and I am so glad that I chose the Wellness Lounge. Chelsea was wonderful and it was such a relaxing experience! I will absolutely be back! Thank you 🙏🏻
Dr. Rebecca is so amazing! Continues to help me through the hard and painful times. She not only helps me though my complex pain—she gives me a safe space to share emotions, frustrations, and tears! I truly feel she is now part of my spiritual journey. I’m so grateful for her warm, human, and gentle approach to her practice!
Great center. They work with you to help get you out of pain and your body moving properly again. I was also nervous about Chiropractors because I previously had a bad experience elsewhere. Not the case here. Dr. Rebecca is amazing. Highly recommend!
Jennifer is professional, knowledgeable when it comes to human anatomy, and genuinely cares about her client’s well-being. I typically see her when I’m dealing with soreness or after i’ve thrown out my back. I always leave feeling much better than when I came in and it shows in my posture!
Jennifer was a wonderfulMasseuse❣️ She had a great flow, was friendly, and used some techniques and tools that I had not experienced before but enjoyed tremendously. Her skill set and her aura were absolutely fabulous💝Thank you for sharing your time with me Jennifer😁
April is an absolute expert in the wellness community providing a unique combination of chiropractic adjustments with body working modalities to combat the discomfort from multiple aspects. Instant pain relief and addictive relaxation.
I had my first acupuncture treatment/consultation with Kara and I couldnt be more excited about our future appointments. Kara is a caring and knowledgeable practician, she asked me all about my medical history and what brought me to seek acupuncture and in that process I learned a lot about what I can be doing to help myself heal more holistically. I was referred to the Wellness Lounge by a friend and now I can totally see why. Ive committed to a series of treatments with Kara and looking forward to learning more about myself and my body.
April is amazing! She provides a whole experience that really helps me feel so much better.
Dr. Rebecca is an amazing chiropractor and a master of her craft, blending the important aspects of both western traditional and holistic medicine to create space for healing the whole body.As someone attempting to heal the side effects of three level cervical fusion her attention to the unique needs of a distressed nervous system are an integral component in my path of healing both body and mind.
Going to the Wellness Lounge is really a whole bod experience. This is not one of those chiropractic offices where they get you in and out so fast that your head spins. I had my first visit with Dr. April, and she is so amazing! You can tell from the minute you are greeted by her bright smile that she loves what she does and really cares about all of her patients.I arrived at the Wellness Lounge early to make sure I found the place alright, and Im so glad I did. I sat in a massage chair for about 20 minutes before my appointment even started, and the receptionist made me a cup of tea. I was floating on a cloud before I even met Dr. April.The actual appointment was great. From the questions Dr. April asked it was obvious that she treats the whole person (mind, body, spirit), and isnt just your regular back adjuster. I have tried several Chiropractors in San Diego, and Im sticking with this one! :)
I have been coming to the Wellness Lounge since it opened last year, and although I have visited SEVERAL wellness centers throughout my life, I have never received the level of wonderful treatment that the Wellness Lounge provides.Last June, I was hit by a car as a pedestrian and ended up with a 4 inch tear to my rotator cuff, a 2 inch tear to the shoulder tendon, as well as losing my gall bladder, to a still unknown, G.I. issue.The educated and incredible staff at the Wellness Lounge has been able to put my broken body back together, using a treatment plan of chiropractic, massage, and acupuncture. I have never felt better or more improved using the holistic methods provided at the Lounge, and I can not believe that I had to suffer through the pains of Western medicine mistakes, before I realized the full benefits of the natural, holistic route.When Rachel was added as a therapist to the Lounges staff, I began getting weekly massages from her. She is amazing, a true caring healer, and genuine and passionate towards all of her clients, every visit. She has improved week after week, and my scheduled appointment with her is something that I look forward to, without a doubt, each week.After combining Dr. April...and now even Dr. Brian adjustments, with the massage care of both April and Rachel, I also added acupuncture to my treatment plan. I have never been happier by any decision. Not only has Kara been able to start healing my G.I. issues, but she has worked to help heal my shoulder, a hurt knee, headaches, and I will swear that Ive never felt more relaxed then during my first session with her.All in all the Wellness Lounge is amazing, relaxing, and I could not ask for a better place to receive treatment!!
Elly provides exceptional service and always listens to what my body needs! She is very knowledgeable and a delight to talk with! 10/10 recommend
Awesome friendly staff and knowledgeable therapists. Been coming here each time I visit San Diego - in particular, had cupping treatment by Jennifer today and will include this as part of my wellness plan from now on.
I started my Yoga Teacher Training program in February and I am so happy I chose to do it with the Wellness Lounge. First of all this business is ran by ALL very intelligent and beautiful women, being a women this truly inspired me because I am all about women empowerment and entrepreneurship. I have met some incredible souls at the Wellness Lounge like Dr. April, Bekah, and Kirby to just name a few. When you enter the Wellness Lounge you feel like youre apart of the family, I know going to some yoga studios can be very intimidating but they treat you like youre their best friend and I really appreciate that. Even if you dont want to get your teacher training they offer amazing yoga classes, massages, acupuncture, paddle boarding and so much more. I HIGHLY recommend for EVERYONE to check out the Wellness Lounge. And Men dont be intimidated at all there are plenty of gentlemen that join the yoga classes and more. EVERYONE will feel at home at the Wellness Lounge. Thank you ladies for giving me the best yoga experience I have ever hadAlso you HAVE to check out their paddle board yoga classes they are the best ones I have ever been to!!! You get to see seals, beautiful San Diego and get a good yoga sesh in. I highly recommend they are my FAVORITE!!! 💚💙
Such a great place! Just came for a nice massage, and Vanessa did an awesome job making me feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the experience. Will definitely come again.
The Wellness Lounge is hands down the best body work place Ive ever found. I began seeing Dr. April when she first opened The Wellness Lounge in the summer of 2011. At that time, it was a tiny office that she ran completely on her own with her itty bitty dog Layla. The ambiance was thoroughly relaxing, and she expertly accommodated every client with efficiency, patience, and compassion even though she was working solo (then eventually with the help of Bekkah, her awesome receptionist/assistant)! Not to mention shes one of the sweetest people you could ever hope to meet--they both are!I visited Dr. April several times during these early months--I am a former gymnast turned slumped-over-a-desk grad student with many joint and muscle injuries that cause severe pain and limited motion. I had seen several chiropractors in the past with mixed results. During my first visit to Dr. April I realized Id found the one. Her combination of massage and chiropractics (Chiroprassage) is pure genius (and should be the standard!). By loosening the muscles first with massage (and heat packs and aromatherapy!) the adjustments are like butta! They are not jarring or uncomfortable in any way, which had not been my experience in the past. And she never makes you feel like your appointment is up. After your adjustment/massage she will have to stand and walk around and if you feel that anything else needs attention she will put you back on the table and work it out. Her knowledge and intuition about how to heal the human body is unmatched in my experience.Dr. April has improved my quality of life. Not only has she eased my suffering during times of injury, she has worked my body back toward healthfulness and balance. After a handful of visits I noticed that my usually ice-cold hands and feet were warm and continue to be warm. She actually improved my terrible circulation! She has also taken the time to suggest improvements to my diet and daily routine for overall wellness. She is a truly gifted health care provider/healer.Well, just when I thought it couldnt get any better, I discovered that in the past several months, while Ive been busy traveling and and working in Northern California, Dr. April added several new players to her team! I called to make an appointment last week and Dr. April was already booked up but I was told that Kara was available. She is an acupuncturist who began at The Wellness Lounge last winter and she is working on becoming a massage therapist and was therefore offering extremely discounted rates. Well, that girl knows what shes doing! I went in with a terrible pinch in my neck that prevented me from turning my head and was causing severe pain, and when I left I had regained nearly all range of motion and the pain was practically gone. Kara, like Dr. April, is a natural healer. She was incredibly sweet, calm, and easy to talk to. She told me to communicate what I was feeling and let her know at any time if I wanted more or less pressure or if I wanted her to focus on any specific areas. But she was so good I didnt need to guide her at all. Im looking forward to trying acupuncture for the first time during a future visit with Kara!Though I havent yet met any of the other recent additions to The Wellness Lounge I am looking forward to it. There is another chiropractor, Dr. Brian, and several massage therapists, a nutritionist, and a yoga instructor!You really cant beat this place. The people, the atmosphere, and the total devotion to your well-being are superb. The Wellness Lounge is truly a gem.
Doctor Aubrey is the best! She makes the effort to understand your situation and uses that feedback to provide specific and thoughtful treatment. On top of that the ambient music and essential oils are very relaxing.
Received a prenatal massage from Elly and it was wonderful! She makes you feel very comfortable. Thank you Elly
60 minute massage with Kara C on 2-25-23. Professional, able to work on chronic areas of tenderness in my back and neck. Highly recommended!
Great initial exam with Rebecca. She was so thorough, I knew I was in good hands; I look forward to continued treatments at the Wellness Lounge with her.
Chelsea was great! I am 38 weeks pregnant and she worked all the spots I needed plus some I didn’t even know I had. Definitely will be back.
I will start by saying the staff was nice enough and the facility looked appealing. Ok, now that I have that out of the way...I purchased a Groupon for a 60-Min Reflexology and 15-Min Body Detox. Reflexology is a pressure method using specific hand and finger techniques applied to the various parts of the foot, each believed to be associated with a corresponding organ or body part. If its done correctly you can feel the results throughout your entire body. Number One Spa does not understand or practice reflexology, instead they offer a modified massage. The attendant left the room twice during the massage for a few minutes each time; once to dump the orange tub of water which allegedly was the result of my detox (the orange color is most likely due to rust which is the result of a chemical reaction between the rods inside the device and the salt water they stick it & your feet into, not any detox).At one point when the attendant had me flip over to my stomach, she had me lay my face down on a gel ring which she had covered with paper towels. I would like to believe the ring was cleaned after the prior use but Im not sure it was given I saw an eye mask from a previous client on the floor under my massage table. On the plus side, I was the only one in the three-bed room so it was quiet and felt private.
Wellness Lounge has been such a blessing for me. The first class I took, I felt completely at home and comfortable. At some yoga studios, especially if you are a fairly new yogi, can be a bit intimidating. From when I walked into their office for the first time, to the first time I left my mat after my first yoga class -- I felt content and at ease. I felt no judgment or competition, I truly felt an ability to practice in my own space.Since my first class I have started their 200hr Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training. I am in love. It has truly changed my life. I went in expecting to learn more about yoga and how to make a traveling business out of it, I have receive that and MORE. I have not only created bonded connections that will last a life time, but I also learned so much about myself. The teachers have helped me grow as an individual which is amazing.All of the practitioners and teachers are super sweet, knowledgeable, helpful, and talented. I would definitely recommend anyone to this studio, 10/10.
I absolutely love this place for both yoga and bodywork/wellness. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. They really listen to you and are genuinely concerned about your health. I highly recommend coming here for whatever reason, be it a health need to a general interest in wellness. Both locations (Kearny Mesa and Mission Bay) are awesome and both have easy parking.
After a bad fall I thought I was never gonna the same. It took one appointment only, for me to know that April could save me. And she did! She is wonderful, if you suffer of chronic pain I promise you April is the person for you.
This place is great. I got a 90-minute massage from Elly, and she did such a great job! She did cupping to my sore muscles, and it helped so much!
I saw Dr. Aubrey this week for a Chiropractassage. I went in with debilitating pain in my lower back and I could not believe how much better I felt the next day. Unbelievable! Dr. Aubrey deserves 10 stars!
Having an office in Kearny Mesa, I am so fortunate to have found this well kept secret! I love their yoga program, its just what I need to unwind after a day at the office.In the past, I would make excuses not to exercise after work, but the total experience here is all around fantastic, from the intimate, almost private setting, candlelight ambience and gentle guidance from top-notch instruction. These ladies know their yoga, and as a special treat, offer hands on adjustments and temple/neck massage with essential oils for those who wish to receive.If you are feeling overwhelmed and in need some motivational/inspirational messages and deep unwinding, check out Rebekah & Meagans Yoga Therapy classes. If you are wanting a gentle, sweet, calm, going within experience, try Kirbys Candlelight Hatha class.Ive also had several deeply relaxing massages with Meagan, and she really gets into/dissolves those pet rocks (as she call them).If youre looking for a great studio in the heart of Kearny Mesa that has it all, look no further!
Go to Rebecca for all your chiropractic needs!! She’s healed my body so many times and continues to do so!!
A very welcoming environment , Elly was very knowledgeable and friendly. Enjoyed the service and even got to use love cups ! Such a cute recommendation from Elly ! Thank you 🙏🏽
By far, Wellness Lounge is the best yoga and value Ive ever found in San Diego! Do your body and mind a favor, try the one week free deal!!!!!!
Had a great prenatal massage with Vanessa! Pressure was amazing.
Chiroprassage and massages are fantastic! Put me all back together again! Am now a regular and so is my husband.
Two thumbs up! Great message by Chelsea she is so nice and professional.
Great service! Friendly and very welcoming. Nice facility where they make you feel at home and take good care of you!
Jennifer was so sweet and I left feeling so much better! Amazing massage!!
Whoa!!!!! One of the best massages Ive ever had. I feel so rejuvenated and the nicest people that work here. I highly recommend them.
Had a massage with Jennifer yesterday afternoon. It was exactly what I needed to remove my body stresses. Thank you!
Very relaxing and helpful. I immediately booked my next appointment before I left the wellness lounge.
Improving steadily. Much better when I stick to Dr. Rebeccas recommendations. Happy with progress.
Chelsea is veru professional. Any questions you have she will answer. Place is clean. The receptionist they are very friendly.
Great experience, personable and very knowledgeable. You can tell she cares more about fixing you.
