Solitude Healing Arts

My body feels amazing after some delightful flying with great music and atmosphere.

A comfortable, safe space to expand my knowledge in my practice:) Thank you solitude

I had chronic back, neck, shoulder, hip and leg pains for the last 10 years do to injuries occuring overtime. After many chiropractor, doctor, and physical therapy, appointments and getting zero results, I was just about done trying. In my last efforts I finally decided I would give deep tissue massage an opportunity although I never was a believer. I figured something as simple as that couldn't really treat chronic pains, right? I randomly came across Antoinette Reset Retreat on Facebook and boy am I thankful! I told her all my pains and how and when I think they happened. She listeneded and retained that information, knew muscle names of affected areas, insertion points of muscles, ligaments, and tendons, as well as best direction to massage in for best results. I had massages on vacations in the past, but this was nothing like that. It was not a universal full body massage, she was able to construct a massage tailored for my pains and surprisingly worked on areas that didn't hurt, but found deep knots that in-turn removed pain from the area I was having chronic pain in. For instance I was having hip and glute pain and she realized it was do to me having many deep knots in my quads causing improper function which was pulling my hip down and forward. Also lower back tail bone pain from her removing deep knots in my hamstrings which was causing my other hip bone to pull backwards and down. Not only that, but my sciatica pain went completly away do to her finding knots in my glute medius. She really knows how the body functions and thinks outside the box. After only a few sessions she was able to remove 10 Years of pain over such a short period of time and I am just thankful I came across her. I was never a believer in massage therapy, but now I preach it. I have referred plenty of people that I know were also having pains and they loved her attention to detail and ability to listen and empathize. I now get atleast a massage a month for upkeep and it has helped me become much more conscious of aches and pains as soon as they arise. I can finally workout pain free again and I owe it to her she is the best ! At age 35 I feel like I did when I was 25, no more struggling to get out of bed or put my socks on lol. I am now a massage lifer. I hope this advice helps someone else in pain.

Solitude is a unique space that is free of judgements. A space that allows you to come in , and not only be accepted but also celebrated for who you are; and where you are headed. I’ve attended yoga classes at most Bakersfield studios and none of them compare to Sheila’s.

Solitude Healing Arts is a calm and peaceful studio. Sheila and all of the staff are amazing and SO supportive! I look forward to going to class and I leave feeling energized and refreshed. I began coming to Solitude in January of 2020 and am still going strong! This is the first time I have been consistent with exercise - ever. That speaks volumes!

If you are looking for more than just a fitness class, then look no further. Solitude offers classes that help your body, mind and soul. The classes offered are small and intimate and everyone I’ve encountered is kind and nonjudgmental. I have been going to Sheila’s classes since February and I love them. I look forward to my evenings spent at Solitude because it’s time my me time. No outside distractions and I can focus on letting go of the unnecessary baggage of the day/week.

Sheila is very flaky and unreliable. If you are looking for classes on a regular schedule, I would not recommend this place. Nice lady and all but I think she's just way over her head..

10/10 would recommend! Class sizes are small and the studio is very inviting. Sheila is extremely welcoming and made me feel so comfortable from the first time I walked into her studio over a month ago. Since attending classes regularly, I have see the positive impact this studio and Sheila have had on my life, not only do you focus on your body but also loving yourself. There are many different class options to choose from and each is unique in its own way. You will leave with more than just a good work out. Don't hesitate to book a class, you wont regret it! I know I didn't!

Love love love this place. Sheila is awesome and patient. Definitely could learn a lot from her
