Devon is awesome!

by handsofsf2u at Citysearch

Had a facial with Devon and I loved it. Hadn't had one in some time, but afterwords, my skin was flawless and it still looks fab! "Very knowledgeable.."Thanks Devon.

Excellent Massages!

by ddcruz at Citysearch

I live on the Peninsula but was introduced to In-Symmetry years ago and have been going there frequently. I have to admit that, despite the odd location (more of a residential neighborhood), the place offers extremely great services. Joey is fabulous at deep tissue massages and all the rest of the staff are friendly and helpful. There's plenty of parking available around the place and the rates are very reasonable. I've never tried the facials, only heard wonderful things about them. Definitely worth a visit...even if only to try it for once.

• Pros: Courteous staff, relaxing ambience, great massage therapists
• Cons: none that I can think of

Best massage in town!

by swimmingturtle at Citysearch

I have been going to In-symmetry for months now to get my monthly tune-up and I just have to say I love this place. The location, the affordability, and not to mention the amazing therapists they have on staff. Wanted to give props to two newer therapists I've tried recently, Rebecca for massage and Devon for facials. Rebecca is amazing at applying enough pressure to really get into the muscles but not too much that you feel your whole body tense up from the pain. She really worked on my hip issue and also made me feel super relaxed by the end. Devon is an amazingly caring esthetician who gives a killer facial, mixed with massage and hot rocks, it felt divine! I highly recommend this place, and the receptionists are super sweet too!

• Pros: Price, location, experience
• Cons: None

Getting 'stoned' has never been this awesome

by Oden43 at Citysearch

why would you go downtown, having to deal with the madness that is, freak out over the lack of parking, when you could just as easily zoom (or take a bus) up to Potrero Hill , park (ample amounts of parking), be buzzed into a beautiful loft (that plays coco rosie!) lit only by the sun, greeted by a pretty girls who bring you water, then off to your own private room with great zen out music (none of that Enya b.s.) and settle in to the best massage of your life?

The thing I loved about In-symmetry compared to other "hot rock" spas, is that they actually work the muscles WITH the rocks instead of just having you lie on them or whatever. While I was "getting stoned" with Katie, my girlfriend was having a facial with Devon. I asked my girl friend what she thought of her experience, and she said "oh Devon and I are going to be best friends soon."

So I leave feeling drunk from relaxation, and my girlfriend left with brand new skin (and a bunch of products) and three more appointments each for the books.

Seriously people, don't ever go anywhere else. We love in-symmetry!

• Pros: So Cheap, So awesome!
• Cons: none.

UmmmmHmmmm

by Burns1969 at Citysearch

Oh yeah, love this place. Best massage ever. I have been here about a dozen times and have seen three therapists and I can not remember names. Just know I LOVE THEM! They keep track of the therapists names for me.

Atmosphere is really comfortable, clean and unique. Hidden Gem.

Therapists are really really good. They use hot stones before they go in for the big knots. Delish!

Price is just right. I can't believe you can still get a massage for $70 these days.

I am one happy customer of this place. My friends get facials and love them too. I much prefer to get massage because I don't have bad skin, yet. I do buy some of the facial products and love them too.

• Pros: skill of therapists

aesome people, great prices!

by sfhippie4 at Citysearch

So this place is a little out of the way, but i was stoked because there was a good deal of parking around. Everyone was super nice when i came in. I got a massage/facial combo as a gift from my boyfriend on my birthday. Man was this EVER a great way to spend my birthday too. Everyone said Happy birthday and you could tell they went out of their way to make sure i was having a good one. I would definitely recommend going to this place. I've had a couple massages before, but never with hot rocks. I am totally a fan now. They even used hot AND cold rocks in the facial, which made for an amazing feeling in my face. I felt so pampered when i came out. So if you ever need to relax, or your looking for a gift, this is the spot to do it at! :)

• Pros: awesome awesome services and prices
• Cons: a tad bit out of the way

No Hesitation To Recommend

by dianedan at Citysearch

I have been going to this place for years. It is not in the middle of things and it is in an area that is a little funky to find but it is a hidden gem. Hot stone and deep tissue massage like no other. I alternate between massage therapists (Jackie, Donna and Joey). They are all three deep and excellent! I only get my facials with Shana. She puts you into a state of mind that you never want to come back from. Then you wake up with glowing, hydrated skin.

The price is reasonable and the service is above and beyond it's prices.

• Pros: Tons of Parking, Affordable, Friendly Staff
• Cons: Funky Location

AVOID this place

by devilbuchi at Citysearch

It all started out nice as a gift from my wife for my birthday after she had reviewed this place as the #1 best sf massage on city search. This place is in a gated residential condo/loft above the industrial thug area in between 280 and 101 in SF. They have no sign or safe parking unless you drive a cheap car or accept to pay one of the homeless outside to watch it for you. I honestly did not feel safe so I had to cancel the appointment. As a result the owner charged in full not only for the time slot as some other places might, but for all services scheduled. So if this sounds like a good time to you go for it but I will stick with the extra fee and get pampered as you should in the spa's downtown.

If you are use to a full body private massage at someones home this is for you. .

• Pros: past clients like it
• Cons: no safe way up to the location

Great spa and service!!!

by yipster at Citysearch

I hate to give such a high rating because because this may make it harder for me to obtain last minute appointments in the future. I live down the penisula and not in SF. However, whenever I go shopping in the city, I drop for a facial and massage.

Last friday, Joey and Cynthia provided the services. They were both great! Each took the time to explain what they were about to do and make the enviroment completely relaxing. Joey does deep tissue, not your spa-like deep tissue. Sometime when you tell someone that you want deep tissue, the massage ends up being a light weight session. I even had to tell him to lighten up a bit, which never happens but I felt completely relaxed afterwards. Cynthia's facials were great...the products were cooling and my face felt continue to feel wonderful afterwards. I haven't had a facial in years but not only are her products cool, she does a great massage on shoulders/hands. Again, she is sensitive to individual needs...I hate that steam machine...sometimes feels suffacating...so she doesn't point it directly on my face.

This place is highly recommended because it has great people that provide outstanding service and is not like some of those 'chi-chi' spas that sometimes treat its clients like cattle to move people in and out.

• Pros: service oriented, relaxing enviroment
• Cons: none at this time.
