Stopped by today to prepare for the full moon. First time, but I had an amazing experience. Total Price out of the door $393.00.Well worth it.The Owner was amazing and made me feel so comfortable, even though I had a million questions. Recording the descriptions at checkout made it easier to organize.Once home, I catalogued with the assistance of the App- Crystal Guru. It allows you to favorite the crystals you have. Gives descriptions and Mantras. A definite must have for newbies. So helpful.I was able to find a few things for less, literally about 5 min after I left. (Candles for the most part.) So for me it was a pleasant experience.I would like to see more literature, and essentials oils, but overall an amazing experience.

I just moved to Cali 4 days ago. Had to go for a check up for work and noticed this crystal store near by. I stopped in and I felt a not so good vibe. I ignored it. I found 5 crystals I liked and didn’t have at home. I was looking on my phone to make sure what they are. I looked up and noticed I was being watched like a hawk. Front desk guy was rude. A lady asked him a question and he just waved her off and continued to watch me. Crystals some are over priced and miss labeled. Very rudely asked if I need something making it sound like I had no clue what I was doing and that I was just looking at shiny colorful rocks. I said no thank you I know my crystals and what I want. He continued to watch me and even got up from the chair and basically fallowed me . He was behind the desk but if I moved from one side of the room he moved to the same side behind the desk. . I put the crystals away and walked out. I did not like the energy.

Beautiful stones in a calm, peaceful atmosphere without incense. (I am violently allergic, which has kept me out of many metaphysical venues.) Whether youre there for geology or aesthetics or metaphysics, this store has what you want at a reasonable price.

The vibe of this shop was cold and univiting. The guy working there seemed like he did not want to be there. The rocks seemed pricy as well...

Great selection of healing stones and crystal quartz. Definitely a must go to in the bay area. So far the best knowledgeable and experienced staff. They give you the time to browse around. A great positive experience.

Healing Stones is the perfect name for this place. Its a one of a kind of place that exerted healing energy all over the room. As soon I walked in, the toxic energy I was hanging on to begin leaving me immediately and I was overtaken by the way Healing Stones begin healing me in all its grace.

Cute little shop, with some uncommon beautiful specimens. A bit pricier than other shops Ive visited in the bay area, but very knowledgeable of the origins of each piece they are selling.

The stones are pretty and all, but they are wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyOverpriced ! I was about to not buy anything, but I thought that it would be rude to not, so I bought the item with the fairest price, not the best price, but it was okay. Overall - great place to browse

I was excited to find a new crystal shop, but as soon as I walked in I realized the woman at the desk was not wearing a mask. Another man came in, not wearing a mask either, and was walking around the store (which is small so not a ton of air circulation). We kindly asked the lady at the front if she and the man could put on a mask, and she basically dismissed us. I was very disappointed with the lack of respect for others. Will not be coming back.

The Healing Stones Shop was very messy & dirty. No rime or reason. I found that odd for a healing stone merchant. Piles & piles of stones & random stuff EVERYWHERE! I felt lost, and overwhelmed. Beautiful stones indeed but confusing. Couldnt rest my eye one thing! Dizziness. Over priced as well. This place could be real cute if given a face lift & some organization. I dont recommend coming here if your just starting out.

So many selections in such a little shop. I wish I had time to look around some more, but I will definitely come back.I just wish everything had a price tag on it like at “East West Bookstore” in downtown mountain view. People are more likely to buy if they have prices on them.

The woman managing things was very helpful and I managed to find a cute little bloodstone and some wonderfully aromatic jasmine incense that makes me feel like I’m sitting in a delightful cup of tea 🍵 🧚🏻

Serious price gouging here. Poor layout and most items are unpriced so you have no idea what youre paying until you get to the register. I bought a $35 piece of bismuth that I later found on etsy for $18, and an $8 piece of red jasper that I found for $2 at another shop. Its unfortunate, she has a great selection but wont be returning until the prices are more reasonable. Also customers were shopping without masks covering their nose which was concerning in such a small shop.

This place is A GEM for finding the true healing stones. This place have many many selection to find your desired healing. The store shows the name and the purpose of the stones. I loved to learn the different stones purposes for the soul healing. The prices is reasonable, not too pricy. I wi come back and buy more different stones to expand my healing. Go and check it out

The owner wasn’t wearing a mask. I’m also pretty sure I was overcharged, the crystal I picked didn’t have a price sticker on it, but a very similar one that was slightly bigger was priced significantly cheaper.

If you’re looking to work with crystals and stones this is an exceptional place to find what you are looking for. I will say that the crystals they sell are more expensive than any shop I’ve ever been to, however, they are great quality and the owners are very nice!!!

Review №37

The selection here is great, but their pricing inconsistency often makes me really uncomfortable. Many things have blank price tags, and when things have a posted price range, the owners will often tell you that something actually costs more than the high side of the range for some reason. If you ask for pricing on an item you looked at a week or two before, youre likely to hear a VASTLY different number. I come here rarely and refuse to buy anything quoted for more than the posted price. They could really use a visit from Weights and Measures. Their pricing on novelty items is also (predictably) very high. Any non-rock item you want to buy, check online and see if its actually all over the internet for a fraction of the price first. Im all for supporting local business, but this place is too inconsistent and sketchy to stay faithful to.

This store is amazing. The Kundalini service is energizing. I have so much energy afterwards, I can clean the entire house. The shop has a fabulous quality and variety of the crystals from around the world- something for every need and budget. The store owner has excellent depth of knowledge. It is a very enriching experience!!

This shop does have a variety of nice quality stones and crystals. Ive been there at leaste 7 times and my last 2 visits have been disappointing. Not much is price marked and that annoys me because I will only pick out items that have prices. The last 2 times I believe I was way over charged. I kick myself for not asking for an itemized receipt. I dont like how the prices are added up on the other side of the counter when Im in front of the register. On my drive home Im adding up what I saw posted, and their total hasnt been even close the past 2 times. I will no longer go back or reccomend this place. Im sticking with The Happy Heart in Oakland where they sit you down, answer any questions while clearly ringing you up.

First Off i absoulutly love this place!! They have some of the rarest crystals, Ive seen by far. The owner of the store goes out in gets them himself which is amazing if you ask me. in the corner of the store is their kundalini bed which is 60$ for an hour, but well worth ittt! I will be back again and many more times!
