Acuity Scheduling costs energy healers $408/year at today's list price. Nexa is $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking and accounting in one suite — so it pays for itself in 8.2 months and you own it after that. What it is not: hosted-for-you software with a support desk and a roadmap you can lobby. That is the trade, and the rest of this page is the detail behind it.
The verdict for energy healers: Acuity Scheduling is solid software, but at $34/month it costs $1,224 over 3 years. Nexa does most of what Acuity Scheduling does for $279 once. For solo energy healers and small teams, Nexa is the better deal.
Today's list price is $34/month — $408 a year, from Acuity Scheduling's own pricing page. Every figure below is that price, multiplied. Nothing is projected.
Nexa: $279 once (or 3 × $99). Over the same three years, that is $945 less.
If Acuity Scheduling raises its price, the three-year cost goes up; if it cuts it, the cost comes down. We don't guess which. Add-ons, extra seats and card-processing fees are not included, on either side.

✓ and ✗ for Acuity Scheduling come from its own published feature list. — means the feature isn't in that list, which is not the same as Acuity Scheduling lacking it: check with them. Three years is at today's price.
Straight from Acuity Scheduling's own feature set. If one of these is the reason you pay them, that reason does not disappear because Nexa is cheaper.
Acuity Scheduling is the better call if you need intake forms specifically, or if your team is large enough that per-seat pricing still beats buying software outright.
Software doesn't do your clients — it automates the business around it. And that part is the same for every energy healer: find the work, manage it, bill for it, get paid. Each step has a tool — and the right single tool runs the whole loop, so the handoffs are automatic and you get back to your clients. Tap a step to see what gets automated.
A new client finds you and books a time — no phone tag, no double-booking.
The session itself — with the client history, notes, packages, and add-ons right there instead of in three different places.
The work becomes the invoice — the hours, the add-ons, the materials, the deposit credited — totaled and sent, instead of re-typed at 9pm.
Paid by card or link, the deposit credited, and what's overdue chased — without you doing it by hand.
You can stitch four separate subscriptions across these four steps, or run one tool that does the whole flow so a booking becomes a job becomes an invoice becomes a payment without re-typing. Either way the goal is the same: less time on the business of the business, more on your clients. (Nexa is built to be the one — but the honest options for each step are above and below.)

Scheduling, client records and invoicing are the pieces of that day. Some tools rent you each piece separately. A few — Nexa among them — bundle the lot and carry their own booking link, with no per-appointment cut. The sections below price both routes honestly.
None of that is a software problem you can buy your way out of in one click — it is why the tool you pick matters more than what it costs. Acuity Scheduling solves some of it. So does Nexa. The difference is what you are left holding in three years.
The median Energy Healer earns $35,000/year. At $408/year, Acuity Scheduling is a recurring slice of that — paid again every year, whether the year was good or not. Owning the same jobs outright is $279 once, and the slice stops.
Nexa is $279 once. Invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, accounting — all connected, built for energy healers. You own it like you own your Treatment table with a face cradle for hands-on and hands-above work.
An honest fit check — because the wrong tool is worse than no tool.
The honest fit: if you're a solo or small energy healers business that owns its tools and is sick of renting software, Nexa replaces your whole stack for $279 once. If you're scaling into a large team with dedicated admin staff, a bigger platform may fit better — and we'd rather tell you that now than sell you the wrong thing.
Scheduling, client records and invoicing are the pieces of that day. Some tools rent you each piece separately. A few — Nexa among them — bundle the lot and carry their own booking link, with no per-appointment cut. The sections below price both routes honestly.
He clears the room before the first client, sage and a few notes from a bowl, resetting the space from yesterday's energy. His morning client is a first-timer who booked half-skeptical, so he spends real time explaining what Reiki is and is not before she lies down: he'll work hands-on and hands-above the body, she may feel warmth or tingling or nothing at all, and none of it is a medical treatment. He scans her field, rests his hands at each center, lets the heat build at the spots that feel blocked. Midday he does a distance session, a regular across the country who books a set time for remote Reiki, and afterward he sends his notes on what he felt, because she is not in the room to know it happened. His afternoon is a chronic client three sessions into a six-pack, and he has to thumb back through messages to confirm where she is in the package. Between clients he clears the space again. He ends the day doing the only marketing that works for intangible work: gently following up with a client from last week to ask how she felt afterward, hoping she'll send the kind of testimonial that brings the next skeptic through the door.

The tools of the trade — each a one-time buy that earns its keep for years.
Here's the bar that matters: you spent $560–$2,330 on tools that last for years, and never thought twice. So why should the software cost more than your whole kit — every single year? Hold it to the same standard as a good tool: $279, once.
The honest version. Nexa was built to beat the rented stack on the jobs that matter most to an energy healer — here's where it wins, where the integration wins it anyway, and the things it genuinely doesn't do, with who to use instead. (No tool is best at everything; a guide that pretends otherwise is just an ad.)
The usual subscriptions vs. Nexa, side by side. Drag the time slider — every year you keep renting, the gap widens. Nexa is $279, one time.
On the work an energy healer actually lives in — scheduling & booking, crm & clients and invoicing — Nexa holds its own against the usual rentals (Calendly →, HubSpot →, FreshBooks →). Head-to-head on any single one it's competitive; what tips it is the thing none of them can copy: From the first-timer consult, through the remote set-time session and the package you are tracking, to the invoice, the whole client journey sits in one record so nothing about whether it happened or got paid falls through. in one record, no re-typing between four apps. One tool, $279 once, against 3 subscriptions · ~$900/yr. Concretely: on scheduling & booking, Nexa logs a remote distance session as a real booking at a set time even with the client absent, so the did-it-happen confusion that breaks ordinary calendars is resolved in the same record you bill from.
Where it's not the answer: if you run real payroll for a team (use Gusto →), or run big email campaigns & automations (use ConvertKit →). Those tools are better at their one thing, and we'd rather point you to them than pretend.
Prefer to own a piece outright instead of renting? Free and open-source tools (GnuCash, Invoice Ninja and the like) each handle one job if you'll self-host them — a real option, listed because it's true.

We build an energy healer's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for an energy healer — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.

Acuity Scheduling has features like Intake forms and Package and subscription billing that some businesses rely on. For most solo energy healers, these aren't dealbreakers.
