Had a great massage here, but since then have been to two other spas in the city and I have to question the rating of best in city. Makes me wonder if something sneaky did not go on with the voting process. However, I love the comfy seating and spacious feeling. I loved the sweet girl, just wish she did not talk so much and could get some of this dang knots out, but she just did not have the tou...
We had Stephanie come into our office for three hours and she was the bomb! I wish she could come every week. She gives an excellent chair massage and I am looking forward to going into the studio for my Hot Stone massage. She listens to your needs and goes deep in the areas that really need it. I would definitely go back to her.
I received a massage from Stephanie and she was absolutely amazing! Very understanding of my needs and really focused on my problem area. I felt extremely relaxed, comfortable, and confident that I was in good hands. I am definitely going back to her. I feel 10 times better! What a massage!
massage therapist at Therapeia are all wonderful who work on relaxing your body ..My massages are both relaxing and healing .i have always had issues with my back and neck . after the massages i always leave feeling renewed and relaxed...the overall ambiance and service are great...
I have had some good, bad and ugly massages in my time and would have to give Therapeia a thumbs up. It was a totally relaxing experience and I felt like a new woman when I left. I had lots of muscle aches prior to my appointment but felt SO much better after an hour of deep tissue massage..blissful. I have not given the full five stars because I felt that the reception area was a bit chaotic and...
If your looking for serious deep tissue Stephanie is your girl. I have been to many therapist over the years and have lived with painful neck and shoulder issues. I was needing someone with a more clinical approach and I finally found her. Stephanie is not your standard relaxation therapist. She will get you out of pain. All you need to do is tell her whats bothering you and she gets right to th...
After moving across the country and my husband going out of the country right away, I was in charge of unpacking... but I found just the help that I needed at Therapeia. The receptionist listened to my concerns about my back and neck and scheduled me appropriately - I was set for a massage the same day with Colin. He is a great therapist and I'm very grateful for the relief that I got out of one ...
I have found THE place for massage!! From the cute, friendly staff (they answer the phone 'how can we help you enjoy life more?' ) to the newly re-modeled lounge in the back, this place is the best! My massage was AMAZING! My therapist checked in with me about pressure, and you could tell he really knew what he was doing. It was the perfect blend of 'working out the kinks' and divine relaxation....
I have been getting massage from Kate for years and can tell you she is among the best of the best - strong and thoughtful while working with a deep understanding of what a pained body needs. When she joined Therapeia last year I knew it must be a quality healing facility. Her practice has only gotten better and I have been very impressed with the other therapists I've encountered when visiting T...
I recently went back to Therapea with a guest and was sadly disappointed. It's a hard place to find if you're not familiar with S.F. It would have been helpful if the receptionist had informed me of such and perhaps mailed me a map or given me the heads up. The bathroom did not have any soap, the receptionist seemed very busy taking calls, answering questions, and taking care of payments. It didn...
I love hot stone massage and this was by far the best hot stone massage ever. I had Allie for 1 1/2 hour massage and she was amazing. Listened to me and sensed my needs and problem stress areas. I felt pampered and well taken care of. The decor and facilities are just OK - not particularly lavish, but everything was clean. The front desk was helpful and this is how they answer the phone "how...
everyone i've seen is incredibly talented, from facials to deep tissue massages to hot stone massages. incredible, no frills value that will leave you feeling fabulous.
After having my last couple of massage experiences leave me cold, I set out in the search for something better. My quest led me to Therapia and Ill never go anywhere else. The spa decor and general atmosphere are very relaxing and immediately start relieving your stress. My massage therapist, Florence, had her work cut out for her since I had had a migraine a few days before and had thrown my h...
I am a dancer and really need a good deep massage on a regular basis. I always find that whoever I book with listens to me and uses the techniques I suggest. I don't know why this business visitor rated his massage so badly just because he can't figure out to park in the nearby garage and can't read simple parking rule signs. Well, he's a tourist so of course...the big city is so SCAWY!
I had the worst shoulder/neck pain. This man saved me! I felt good when I left, but the results came the next day, 100% better. I have been to Therapia about 4 times now and it has been always a great experience, but this last "treatment" with Sufian brought it to a new level!
I called Therapeia and told them that my neck was really bothering me, did they have someone who could help me? I had a 90 minute massage with Dillon and she totally saved me. Not only that, but they made it really easy for me to come in; told me where to park to save time and offered to work with my schedule so that i didn't stress out about it and make my neck worse. The ENTIRE staff was super ...
If it wasnt for Stephanie I wouldn't be able to play my guitar! I had severe neck pain and numbness in my arms and hands. She made it possible for me to play again. I am so Greatful to her. Therapeia has a great environment and you never leave disappointed.
Thanks to Mia! I went in feeling a little dissapointed from my last massage experience at a different spa...but this was wonderful! Mia really listened to me and was such a great practitioner...I was so pleased with her manner and her skill level. I'm trying to get my brother to go in and see her, and he isn't really all about massage, but I know Mia can help him. I feel like I have a new back!
What a great experience...Mia is a great practitioner. I've had cranial work done before from skilled workers and I felt they were great, but Mia's technique really integrates massage and cranial adjustment and I highly reccommend her. These techniques are very powerful, not just for the body but for the mind. She does a great job. I could feel my body healing itself with her guidance.
i get alot of massages...and never, in my entire life, have i had a massage so perfect. it was therapeutic, as well as soothing. you really just have to come in and get a massage for yourself, because i really can't describe the experience aptly. i'm even trying to convince my boyfriend (who doesn't want a massage from a guy) to get a massage from dean because it was just so excellent
I had my massage from Dean yesterday and wanted to leave a review for him because I feel so much better today. Sitting at my desk I can notice a difference in how my shoulders feel, and I'm so grateful - I can't wait unitl next time. It is a pleasant place to be, and Dean makes it even more worthwhile. He also uses great music mixes that he makes himself. Thank you Dean!!
To keep this short and to the point: Dean provided me with a stellar 60 minute massage session yesterday. I too am a bodyworker and was stunned and left in awe after my massage. Words cannot describe how great I felt during and after the session.
I am now hooked and will continue to be a regular client at Therapeia. Dean is hands down a true talent to his credit! Thank you so much for the pru...
This place is absolute heaven! I have seen every therapist there and they are nothing short of AMAZING! Everyone greeted me with genuine care, concern and a smile! I'll never go anywhere else, again... "I left my heart in Therapeia"... and you will to!
I wanted to give my mother a really great birthday present, and so I decided to treat her to a facial at Therapeia. I made the appointment a week in advance for 6:00. The receptionist told us to arrive 15 minutes early, and we got there at 5:40. But we ended up waiting an hour until the facialist came to get my mom. If it had been me I would have left, but I wanted my mom to enjoy her birthday...
If you are in search for a wonderful massage, look no further! I have been fortunate to find Sufian A., a wonderful massage therapist at Therapeia that not only works on relaxing your body but also renewing your spirit. I have received numerous massages from other places both within and outside the United States, but Sufian is the one person I trust to always relax me - you will not regret it w...
WOW! What a beautiful oasis of tranquility. From the minute I walked in the door I felt relaxed and welcome. The front desk staff was really nice and helpful. The whole place was so elegant, such a nice change from some of those clinical looking all-white spas. My hot stone massage was amazing. I felt like melted butter. You should definitely check out the hot stone.
Of all the spas I have visited, Therapeia is the place to go for the absolute best massage, specifically its hot stone massage. Sufian A. is by far the most talented massage therapist. Every time I visit, he ensures that my massage is both relaxing and healing; I always leave feeling renewed. For those seeking these types of results, I highly recommend that you visit Sufian and Therapeia. You...
I'm not your "regular" spa person, but I hadn't had a facial since the dark ages, and the appointment was a gift! I was so pleasantly and thoroughly delighted with not only the facial, but Diane was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and sincerely friendly. She had helpful tips regarding skin improvement that didn't even require the use of products.The products she did use and her techniques ...
I just had the worst day of my life! I was so upset when I walked through the doors of Therapeia, that I was ready to do something drastic. I was greeted with surprising warmth and compassion even though I was 20min. late and pissed! My massage therapist Evan, was so nuturing and gave me the most amazing massage of my life! Not only was my body transformed, but Evans incredible work saved me from...
My body quickly came to a state of bliss when Lara's strong, sensitive hands went to work on my tight, achy body. Tremendous release was experienced almost immediately, the stresses of the week melted away, and my being felt peaceful once more. I loved it!!
if you want to relax and feel better, this is THE place to go!
deep tissue and therapeutic work is the standard; they don't try and charge you extra for it! the rooms are cozy and warm, and the people are totally chill.
My back had really been bothering me at work and I was complaining about it to one of my co-workers who I knew used to have some pain from sitting so much too. She told me that her massage therapist at Therapeia had totally helped her by not only making her back feel better, but by giving her stretches to do at work and at home between sessions. I called right away and the really helpful front de...
Therapeia is a beautiful, comfortable space! I went to Therapeia on a friend's recommendation. She saw the acupuncturist while she was pregnant and loved him. Craig was really nice and made me feel comfortable right away. He is very intuitive and I felt terrific after the session.
This place is amazing! not only are the practitioners highly skilled, the front desk staff is delightful to deal with. I felt transported to a relaxing paradise!
From the moment you walk in to Therapeia, you know this is not your typical day spa. The desk staff is warm and friendly. They are quick to offer water in a glass. The massage therapist was on time and happy to see me. There were no bathrobes or champagne, but the bodywork is where it is at. The therapist applied perfect pressure for the best two hour massage I have ever had. After I was fi...
From the moment I walked in I was greeted with smiles and warmth from everyone I came into contact with. The massage was the best I have EVER had and I have been getting massages for over 20 years for chronic back pain. My therapist seemed almost clairvoyant in knowing exactly how much pressure to use and where I needed work. I had to force myself to stand upright afterwards and leave after maki...
Healed! Craig made my knee pain disappear! He was extremely thorough in his consultation (explained everything!) and very warm and friendly, which instantly put me at ease. The treatment ended up being unbelievably relaxing and healing. I can't wait to go back for another session. I know that the acupuncture and yoga are excellent...now I am just dying to try a massage and facial. Pretty aw...
What a treat! I am so glad I discovered this oasis of healing and relaxation. A friend turned me on to it and I am so grateful. I have been looking for a really good massage place and Therapeia has it all. Great staff, nice vibe and truly amazing massage!!!!! I tried the Bliss Therapy and the name does not do it justice. I was transported to another dimension! A two person massage-- how co...
Wow is all I can say! I've heard the buzz and this place really lives up to it! Friendly staff, warm and inviting decor, luxurious room and the best massage I have ever had!
If you've ever wondered what it felt like to be touched by an angel, sign up for a facial at Therapeia. All of your worries will disappear as you slip into the serenity of spa life. Pamper yourself. Revel in you. Therapeia takes you under their wing and make you feel like new again. Massages that leave you in tears of joy, facials that make you sparkle & glow and of course, there's waxing fo...
If a good bikini wax is what you're looking for, this is your place and Melanie is your woman! I'm a shy girl when it comes to these things, but Melanie's professional demeanor put me at ease immediately. She does a wonderful job. I will never go to anyone else!
What a wonderful massage! Definitely one of the best I've had! Jennifer was wonderful. This is a great place - with heated massage tables! I thought that was a nice touch. The therapists here are a cut above the rest!
Thanks to Therapeia and Endermologie, I am able to wear a bikini on my honeymoon and not be ashamed of my dimple-ridden backside...A horrifying experience to look in the mirror since adolescence, I am finally free to live like a normal person. Endermologie is amazing - basically a machine that rolls over your body like a vacuum - very relaxing and it actually feels good. The staff is very perso...
I never submit my 2cents, but Helene was so great at Therapeia, I feel it would be a disservice to the public if I didn't let you know: Had the BEST massage of my life. I'm usually really tense and tickish--practically unmassageable. Helene gave me such a great massage, I slept so well last night! Today, I woke up ultra-refreshed for the first time in months! Thanks!
I got the hot stone massage and it was by far the best massage experience of my life. I am a spa regular and have tried many of the more upscale places in the city. Although Therapeia has fairly sparce but clean decor, the therapists were extremely attentive and the well trained. I have found my favorite spa in the city and plan to become a regular of Therapeia.
I just have to let everyone know what a fantastic place this is! My husband and I went in for Hot Stone massages wondering what in the world that was -- It's the most amazing massage we've ever had. I woke up with warm stones in between my toes and underneath me they had placed the stones as an outline of my body. My husband could barely speak because he was so relaxed. He took me out for my favo...
This is the best massage/spa place I've ever been to - the therapists are really advanced in massage techniques and I felt that they could have charged twice as much for the amazing massage I received. Try the hot stone - it's the best!!
the yoga classes at therapeia are the best in the city, hands down. they are big enough to bring a sense of community to your yoga practice but small enough that you get real attention from the instructor. Plus the teachers are super friendly and knowledgeable. They really care about you and your practice no matter where you are.
Oh my, what a treat. This was the most soothing and relaxing facial I've ever experianced. Afterwards I just felt beautiful.
I just experienced the most wonderful treatment. I had a hotstone massage followed by a hotstone facial. It was heavenly to have the stones melting the muscles in my body. The staff was excellent and the sapce unique. I will definatly be back for more.
I received a massage for the first time at therapeia, it was OUTSTANDING. I was in a world of hurt, and when I came out I was fixed. Massage therapist was extremely attentive and skilled. Friendly, welcoming staff and nice ambience.
I've come yet again when I was in such chronic pain I had nowhere else to turn. Therapeia's technicians are GREAT. I've had cranial-sacral, traditional, and hot stone massage... all were very helpful. I will come again and again for the friendly, professional, and talented individuals who make this place #1!!
not too spiritual, and not too fitness, just right yoga
I noticed Therapeia while going down Bush street when I was feeling stressed and as soon as I went in I knew it was the right place. It smelled of soothing essential oils, the rooms were beautiful and the atmosphere was extremely relaxing. My massage therapist was incredible. I was amazed how much better I felt as soon as I felt the warmth of the stones. They aren't just placed on energy centers ...
I stumbled upon Therapeia by accident and boy I am sure glad that I did. The yoga teachers are extremely helpful and the staff very friendly and they make you feel right at home.One touch from a Therapeia massage therapist and you will melt on the spot guaranteed.
I had taken yoga classes in the past but, I had never been made to feel so welcome and comfortable. The instrutor (Lara Iden) was attentive and helped me get over feelimg like I needed a super beginner class. The best part of the night was the free chair massage after class! Talk about unwinding after work.
The funniest thing was that I knew two people in class and someone on staff, woh knew?
I went to David Lurie's Tuesday 7:30PM ashtanga yoga class and walked out healed and toxin free. I have been to several Yoga classes around the Bay Area and David's has been the most beneficial to me. He creates an atmosphere that is amiable to all levels, fully describing how to get into each position and points out methods of opening your body slowly, listening to your breath always. Every c...
Therapeia was a total surprise. I never thought it'd be like this - I'd driven by thier sign for months before I decided to check 'em out. I never thought a massage would be able to make my back pain go away, but after 90 minutes of hot stone treatment not only did it release all my pain, but I felt intoxicatingly happy - it was the most amazing sensation! Plus the place is clean - eat-off-the...
Without a doubt, the best massage I've ever had in my life.
I'm as loose as a goose. I haven't felt this good in years.
The space is beautiful and I found the staff to be genuinely friendly and knowledgeable. I definately did not feel like another dollar sign walking through the door.
