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.
