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 the receptionist rushed me through.

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 the problem. I have been so happy since I started seeing her. I make my appointments ahead of time so I always know I will get in on her schedule. Give her a try you wont be disappointed.

Pros: Five star

Cons: none

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 hour massage! Thank you! I hope to return soon!

Pros: therapeutic massage in the first visit!

Cons: expensive for one hour, but worth it all in all!

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. After 90 minutes, I felt light and free, without a care in the world. Reception was sweet and efficient. I think it's safe to say I'll be back again and again. They definitley helped me 'enjoy life more' :)

Pros: Perfect in every way!!

Cons: Nothing

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 Therapeia. Now pregnant and past my due date, I have begun acupunture treatments with Craig to avoid medical inducement. He and his treatment have been wonderful. He listens to my needs (both physical and emotional) and has helped me tremendously in my efforts to focus on what I can do to help my body along while providing gentle and effective treatment. Yes it is true, the do only have room tempature water in their waiting room. but who need cold cucumber water and a fancy spa lounge (which is not advertised and only drives up costs in my opinion) when you get individualized holistic healing and great service?

Pros: Easy appointment scheduling, great service, skilled therapists

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't seem real organized. There were no hangers available in the massage room. There was a water dispenser which contained ordinary water which was luke warm...with only one glass available on the plastic tray. Didn't get the wax and brow shaping that I had signed up for...but, instead I received a free tweeze (a light one at that), which was determined to be all that was necessary. If you want to receive a menu of all of their services and costs involved, go to their website and be sure and print it out 'cuz you won't find it at the spa. No "menu" was available for the taking or browsing. Just a broshure that provided only some information and some visuals. The products are very good, nonetheless. The massage therapist and estetician (sp?) that were assigned to us were also very well trained. Nice music in the background. Fountains. I think I could go to a spa in my own home town and get far more special attention, ammenities, and a comparable facial for far less money...and my home town is in the beautiful Napa Valley!

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 can we help you enjoy life more?" Massage was expensive, but well worth it.

Pros: Excellent staff, Amazing massage

Cons: OK facilities, Expensive

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 décor 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 hip out the previous night. I told her about the migraine but not the hip, I didnt want to overload her. I might as well have given her a detailed chart of all my misalignments because she sought them all out and adjusted me back to normal. This was not just a back rub! Florence is obviously a very talented healer. She employed several healing methods during my session. I could not be happier with my experience.

Pros: massage, atmosphere, price
