My favorite spot 4/16/2009

I've tried almost everything there. Facials, massage, sauna. The Organic Facial is to die for and the infrared sauna is just a phenomenal way to detox in 30 minutes. The receptionists are also very sweet and genuinely warm. There's one young gal who's great at making sure I'm hydrated before and after my treatments. It's just an intimate setting that makes me feel right at home and oozes old San Francisco charm. It's not an opulent place, but for the size of the space they've made it cozy and aesthetically pleasing for an afternoon of pampering. Low key is the word. I have to add that I went in last week for a massage and walked out and couldn't remember where I parked. The masseuse was that good. I wish I had asked for the gal's name, but this is my third massage there and everyone has been great thus far. This place cheers me up. more

Best Relaxation Massage and Sauna 7/5/2008

My boyfriend had scheduled this couples massage for me for my birthday. We first spent about half an hour in the sauna. I have to say that the sauna is the best thing ever. I like to work out alot and this infrared sauna really loosend up my muscles and got us really ready for the massage. It also takes out all the horrible toxins in our bodies. We opted out of taking the shower and went straight into the massage room. We did a 75 minute deep tissue massage and I really fell into this relaxation state! My boyfriend must have also enjoyed it because I could hear him almost snoring! Between the sauna and the massages this is definately the best place to go. Before we floated out of there we made another appointment in the following month! Pros: Parking lot on Clay street was convenient, cozy and caring environment, service GREAT Cons: none more

Bought a Birthday Day Gift Card Online 5/2/2008

I bought a birthday gift online at Spa Boom and gave it to a friedn. First off, Spa Boom was really easy to use and very convenient. My girlfriend and I both went to the spa and got separate massages. The massage was the best ever. I melted away like butter. I also got to use their sauna for the first time and after getting a massage and sitting in their sauna I felt like a brand new woman! If you go there to get a massage you have to buy the extra time in their famous sauna. You'll see what I mean. more

Massage and Sudatonic Slimming System .... 5/1/2008

I took my friend there the other day and had a FABULOUS massage! I also plan to set up an appointment for that new French Sudatonic Slimming system? It is suppose to help boost metabolism and can burn 4000 calories in 90 minutes! The reviews I heard about this Sudatonic thing seems to be really great! I have a wedding to attend in July and want to look great! So I am going to try this. But most definately go get a massage there! Pros: It is always difficult to find parking in the district but there is a parking lot half a block away! Cons: No Cons LOVE the place!!!! more

BEST SPA in San Franicsco! 5/1/2008

The perfect ambience coupled with an attentive staff made this place one of the most relaxing and uplifting places I go to when I need some pampering... They have a wonderful body wrap that also helped me fit into my dress when I was feeling slightly bloated. Apparently, it also detoxified my body which was an added benefit to the down-sizing of my dress size. What more can I ask for other than another visit!?!! I think I'll probably get an appointment for my mom for Mother's Day next week. Please go as soon as you can, but be sure to call for a appointment in advance because they seem to have a busy schedule. Pros: Very Professional and personable. more

Finally! Great Facial 5/12/2007

I tried a facial at Spa Sole for spa week and was pleasantly surprised. I went back last weekend to see Theresa again and this facial was even better than the spa week facial. I'm not one to write these types of reviews, but the service at Spa Sole was fantastic. Everyone was so nice and accomodating and my skin looks great. I highly recommend Theresa for both her facials and waxing. You should check out this place - it's super cute. Pros: Great service - know their stuff. more

No one knows Skincare like Darryl 4/17/2007

I have been to many spas around the city and participate extensively in Spa week to try out new services and locations but the 302 Facial by Darryl is the best I have had. He looks at your skin and knows exactly what you need. This what we should expect from all facials but I have paid a lot more for a heck of a lot less. I guess it helps that he has been doing this for 27 years! AND he is not pushy with products like all the big spas are. He is amazing. Pros: Parking, service, knowledge, area, friendly Cons: Hard to get in with Darryl as he is fully booked more

Best Couples Massage 2/6/2007

For one of our wedding gifts, someone gave us a gift certificate for a ninety minute couples massage plus a sauna session. We both like massages but never had one together and had never been to this spa. It was wonderful! The massages were probably the best we had ever had and the people that worked there were so nice and made sure to take care of everything. The sauna was great (and it's private so you don't have to sit and sweat with people you don't know). We totally recommend this place. Pros: Great Couples Massage more

Best Facial! 2/2/2007

I go to spas regularly so I am no novice. I was given a gift certificate a couple months ago and finally made the appointment. One of my best friends loves this place (she goes for the massages)and had been telling me I should try it out- so I opted for the facial with ultrasound. It was fantastic! I literally looked better when I left. I liked that the staff was friendly and knowledgable. This is a relatively new boutique spa and I highly recommend it. more

Excellent services with great results and a most accomodating owner! 12/20/2006

Caroline and her staff were absolutely amazing during my whirlwind trip to San Francisco. She was most accomodating with my schedule and absolutely horrific sense of direction. On top of that, the dermasonic treatment I received was fabulous! I could shop a full size smaller that day! Thank you, Caroline! You and your staff were terrific- I look forward to my next visit out there.. more

Caroline and her team are the best! 11/28/2006

As a spa-addict, I've always preferred full-service big-name spas for the little extras (lockers, steam room, lounge, etc) and usually shy away from smaller spas because of horrible experiences I've had so far. Spa Sole is different because the owner, Caroline is different. She's absolutely genuine, gives no sales pressure, and is unbelievably accomodating about reschedulings. She'd even help put quarters in the meter for you! I went to Spa Sole for a series of body-sculpting treatments called Dermasonic for my flabby inner thighs. The results are great - the skin is smoother, and even the cellulite is less visible even when I pinch the thighs. Short of plastic surgery, this is the next best thing. In fact, I'm signing up for another series! Pros: reasonable prices, flexible schedules, no sales pitch Cons: parking more

I love the Far Infrared Sauna! 7/22/2006

It makes me feel totally renewed and detoxed. I've also tried the massages and also love them. I've had Jo do my massages and she's fantastic. The receptionist is so friendly - I always feel right at home. The only downside is that the last time I visited there was construction and it was hard to relax with all that noise. I felt like there should have been some kind of discount for the distraction. Also, sometimes the receptionist talks kind of loud and it's hard to relax. Pros: Smells great, fantastic massages, the Far Infrared Sauna is like no other Cons: Receptionist can talk a bit loudly more

Fantastic Couples Massage 6/18/2006

I took my b-friend here for a couples massage this past weekend. WOW. We did a sauna session first that was sooo relaxing then after a quick shower moved to the really big couples room. I was told on the phone when I booked that the massage people had lots of experience. They must have because they were GREAT! I think this is best massage I've ever had and my boy friend agrees. It's now Monday and I still feel great from it. This is my new favorite spa! Pros: great massage, nice place, very friendly people Cons: allow time for parking more

Thank you Theresa! 3/15/2006

I have been looking for an esthetician who really knew how to give good facials. One that felt good and actually did something! I finally found it at Spa Sole with Olga and Theresa. Initially I tried the waxing (they use the BEST stuff- a lavender wax that doesn't hurt!) and Olga was great. It's such a cute place so later I went for a facial and it was fanatstic! Truly the best I ever had ( I saw Theresa). I'm a seasoned spa goer and this is a "best kept secret" if I ever saw one. Pros: knowledgeable staff, friendly, great products more

Great Place 1/22/2006

I initially went to Spa sole because of a gift certificate, and loved it! Their facialists are particularly good with problem skin so I actually felt I had a good facial. I also sat in an infrared sauna that made me feel sooo good. I went back a few days later and did a spray tan and that sealed the deal- the color is great and it makes my skin look even better. Pros: evening appointments, great facial products, nice people more
