My therapist was Hitomi, and I think I was so ready for a nap after treatment that I didn't thank her enough! She was so kind, considerate, and enjoyable to talk to! She informed me of every step in the process, and made me feel comfortable, as it was my first time being without clothes in a spa. The Vichy Shower was so relaxing, I was so sad that it ended. Unfortunately, I was on a tight birthday budget, but if I could have tipped Hitomi 100% of the service, I would have. I am looking forward to the next time to return. Booking was simple! I called the number, and requested an appointment and they got back to me through text to confirm the appointment! Everyone was super kind and helpful. Highly recommend. read more

I found this spot to be a nice surprise! I enjoyed a spa service! The staff was friendly, professional and experienced in the art of massage. The water treatment was a new therapeutic experience that was very relaxing. read more

I had a great experience at GoVichy. The therapists were amazing and the treatment was really relaxing. There are no Vichy places nearby so I highly recommend going to GoVichy if you are curious and you won't regret it! read more

Beware! I made an online appointment, showed up for it on time...and discovered the doors were locked and no one was at the business. Standing outside waiting for 15 minutes, I called their number and left texts. Now 5 days later and I still have not heard back from the owner. It seems like another recent would-be customer had the same experience as I did. I welcome a reply from the owner and an effort to make things right with customers; I hope to hear from them. read more

Have an appointment scheduled at 9 and the spa isn't even open, they don't answer the phone, no call back, nothing...super disappointing. Been standing outside for 15 minutes, what a waste of time. read more

I hesitate to yelp this because this is a hidden gem I'd rather keep local but we recently visited Govichy for a body scrub and massage, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The professionalism, privacy and cleanliness of the place immediately stood out, making us feel comfortable and at ease. The service was exceptionally hospitable, with a friendly staff that made sure all of our needs were met. The body scrub itself was a rejuvenating process, shedding not only old skin but also any lingering stress. The Vichy showers are what makes this establishment an upscale and unique experience only 5 diamonds spas have otherwise. The meridian massage was tailored to our preferences, with the therapist applying just the right pressure to release built-up tension. The addition of hot stones and warm towels at the end truly added life back into our bodies, leaving us feeling completely refreshed, cleansed, and revitalized. We left feeling as though all the pieces of is were put back together, ready to take on our next endeavors. Highly recommend this place for anyone seeking a truly restorative experience. I sign my husband and I up once a quarter to do this together to not only take care of the largest organ of our bodies, the skin, but also to renew our sense of inner peace and happiness. read more

I have never heard of Vichy massage and did not have any expectations. For those who haven't been, It's a water scrub massage. I was gifted this massage at GoVichy by a friend and Tomi and Kazumi were our masseuse. They are friendly and did a nice job with good effort and focused on tight muscle areas you wanted to work on. Shoulders and neck was my focus. Thanks! read more

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. I got the "full Vichy treatment" which was 90 minutes and included a scrub and massage. It was so relaxing and worth every penny. I will be adding this treatment to my monthly regimen as it left my skin glowing. As a woman, I never know how comfortable I will be in a new spa, but they were so respectful and made me feel completely at ease. I highly recommend this to anyone! read more

My wife and I decided to treat ourselves to the full Vichy treatment as a couple's experience. Neither of us had ever experienced something like this before. Let me tell you that it was very, very nice! We were greeted by Jenny when we arrived. After filling out a short questionnaire, we were led to the changing rooms and the experience started. They have 2 Vichy tables next to each other in the same room for us. The body scrub, rinse, and massage were all very nicely done. We both really enjoyed the long slow movements, especially with the hot stones. It was so relaxing! We will definitely be back. read more

Scam what joke! I have letter from my Dr at Kasier. You couldn't even give me back my money for the bandages now that a joke! You request letter and I really should've sue you for all the pain and suffering I went thru and the scar you left me on my body. How dare you! read more

This little place is a hidden gem. I love a body scrub. It's my go to treatment when I visit the big spas like the Grand Del Mar or Burke Williams. There's something luxurious about wet room treatments and I love the way my skin feels after. Go Vichy is a new body scrub boutique located in a business park in Encinitas. There are two treatment rooms. Each room has two treatment areas- so you can bring a friend if you want. There are separate men and women's locker room/changing area, and a shower room. Upon arrival, you will check in at the front desk and be shown to the locker area. There, you will put your belongings into a locker, and change into a robe and slippers which are provided. Then you will take a quick shower after which your technician will greet you in the waiting area and take you to the treatment room. I had an amazing appointment with Grace. She scrubbed me with special exfoliating mittens, then massages my skin with oil and hot rocks. She asked if she could wash my hair (no conditioner). My skin feels amazing and I will definitely be back. Here are some things to remember: *There is a hair dryer in the locker room and a mirror *Take off all your jewelry and put it in your shoes in your locker do you won't forget it. * Your face will get wet and you do start out the treatment face down on the massage table *They are eco-friendly in that water is not wasted. In other words, the Vichy shower is not on the entire treatment. It is used to rinse. The exfoliating comes from the mittens, not salt or sugar scrub. read more

The ultimate in an affordable luxury experience. For those who never experienced a Vichy shower or body scrub, you're completely missing out. In tradition of decadent bathing rituals, you'll walk out euphorically relaxed and with skin a baby would be jealous of. You'll spend the entire time being gently cleansed, scrubbed of all old and dry skin from every crevice, rain showered, and then massaged with a mix of classic and Thai yoga techniques. Grace is an absolute professional making you feeling comfortable being naked or with small towel/disposable underwear if you are so inclined. Her strong and through massage and gentle personality makes me ask for her by name. A few little tips for first timers: -it's in the back of the building -take a shower before your appointment -take off all jewelry and put it your locker -if you like they will wash and massage your scalp and hair, they have a blow dryer but bring a brush -you can tip on your card or cash is alway king! -also call for your appointment, sometimes the online system is a bit off for last minute availability read more

Had a wonderful experience this weekend. Went there first thing in the morning and met Jenny. She explained the entire process to me so I knew what to expect. From start to finish I could tell that Jenny knew exactly what she was doing, and did it all well. She was extremely professional and effective. If you are looking for an alternative to the regular type of massage, I highly suggest this place. You will not be disappointed. read more

Do yourself a favor- book sessions here on a recurring basis. Your body will thank you for it! I've had vishy massages before, but nothing even close to this total experience. If Grace is available, request her- but the owner does a great job too. The price is fantastic and the treatment is unparalleled! If only I didn't live several States away.... read more

Good, convenient spa. Usually able to get us in on short notice which is great! Massages were overall good, although hot stones weren't very hot. Pricing and add-one are a bit confusinh. Otherwise our experiences here have been positive! read more

Hadn't experienced this type of massage treatment before, and will definitely be back! The full body scrub before your massage makes you feel really refreshed. The staff was kind and my masseuse check in multiple times to makes sure the pressure was okay. The basic process was body scrub, rinse off/relaxation from the shower apparatus you see in the photos, and then massage. I got the Full Vichy treatment, which included hot stones and some essential oils at the start of the massage. Looking forward to the next. FYI - entrance is on the back side of the building with the swim school and dentist. read more

I went in to use my gift card today that I have had for some time. Jenny welcomed me and showed me in. This is a unique massage studio with a thorough scrub and shower before the massage, Wonderful!! She was thoughtful and caring with a fantastic massage! I felt so much better when I left. I have trouble with a muscle in my leg after she worked on it she suggested I try acupuncture and actually walked me over to one in a near by shop!! This really helped!! I am grateful for her kind actions!! Please request her when you visit this amazing place. read more

This is by far one of the best massages I have ever received. I just came back from Deployment, and my body hurts and I'm pretty stressed. I saw another massage place mention "Vichy" but I had no idea what it was. I found this place on google after the first search. And boy let me tell you, I will DEFINITELY be coming back here again. I did the full Vichy treatment, and it blew my mind. Never in my life have I been so relaxed and stress free. It's difficult to put into words what all went on during the massage, but just know it was mind blowing and anybody who goes here will figure out very fast what I mean. Thank you to the staff or making it a great time! I will be back for more. read more

Donia's vision of creating a true pampering spa environment was fulfilled with GoVichy! The level of service and value are unmatched. My Wife and I experienced GoVichy together for massage, both of us walked out like zombies, fully relaxed and refreshed. I had Grace, who by the way is a medical doctor is truly magic. I had neck and shoulder issues from surfing and she was able to find the pressure points and focus on them and I have not had any issues since. I am a returning customer and refer people whenever I can! You must try the Vichy table, it will make your skin new again. With all the environmental chemicals, sunscreen etc. tis process is really a renewing experience. I Love GoVichy! read more

My girlfriend and I arrived exactly at our appointment time even though they asked us to arrive 15 minutes early so the whole thing felt a bit rushed because they had customers right after. In fact they were so rushed that they refused to take a picture of me inside the massage room. This was a groupon deal for 60 minute scrub/shower/massage and hot stones which was an amazing complimentary addition. The room felt cold at first but after asking them to turn on the heater it got nice and comfortable. I'm definitely coming back... and hopefully getting that picture read more

Govichy is wonderful. I routinely get the 90 minute signature treatment, which is a full body scrub and a massage. This is a WET scrub! A hundred times better than the silly dry scrub many spas offer these days. American's aren't used to having someone bathe us, so I understand if you are skeptical or timid. I suggest you think of yourself as royalty being decadently bathed by your attendant. Lie back and let it happen. It is so professionally done that you will feel comfortable. Grace is relentless. She scrubs every nook and cranny. Dead skin doesn't stand a chance. It has nowhere to hide. Grace scrubs places where you forgot you had places. A very thorough scrub. My dermatologist told me to use a loofah, but in two years using the loofah at every shower I didn't accomplish what Grace did in one session. My skin has greatly improved as a result. Instead of telling me to use a loofah, the doctor should have just sent me to Grace. The rinse is a horizontal shower. You don't get up for this. You just stay on the table, and the water comes to you. Hot water everywhere at once. After the rinse, you are dried. Again, you never leave the table. This is a magic trick. It starts with a wet person on a wet table, and ends 30 seconds later with everything dry, and a nice heated towel covering you. Then there's the massage. Grace is quite skilled at this. There's a lot of deep muscle work, which I need. There are hot stones. There is assisted stretching, expertly done. Grace seems to know what stretches I need, as she puts me through the same ones my physical therapist does. Small businesses are having a tough time these days. Please support these folks so they'll make it thru the tough times, because I want to keep coming back! read more

Absolutely AMAZING! From the moment I walked in, I was kindly taken care of. Very clean and professional spa. I was told exactly how my treatment would go by a very nice woman. I felt very comfortable, and extremely relaxed the entire time. The body scrub, Vichy Shower, and the massage were all outstanding! Also the hot stone is well worth adding. This is literally the BEST spa experience I have had! Give yourself the gift of self care and get a treatment here, you will be amazed! It would also be a fantastic gift! I will be going back! read more

Great experience overall. Haven't been here before but glad I found this hidden gem! Was looking for a new place for a massage nearby that was reasonably priced but also had the amenities I was looking for. Staff was great and overall experience was the best I've had in a while! Will definitely be back and recommend to friends! read more

My boyfriend and I scheduled a signature treatment at Go Vichy which was supposed to include a scrub and massage. Upon arriving we were told that one of therapists was having car trouble so the owner/receptionist would start his scrub and then the therapist would continue the massage. Twice during the scrub she left to answer the phone. After the scrub the owner/receptionist left and said she was going to get the massage therapist... Half an hour later no one showed!!! He was offered water but zero explanation. While we were not charged, we found the whole experience to be VERY disappointing and unprofessional. There are much better spas to spend your time and money. read more

Love this place. I did the signature scrub, massage and hot stone. WOW or wow! ...it was one of the best treatments I've ever experienced and I've done lots of treatments. The owner is very friendly and sweet. I will be coming back soon! read more

I was looking for a good massage place after a long stressful week at work. I stumbled upon GoVichy and instantly noticed it was different from all of the other "usual' massage places in the area. This place was clean and actually had english speaking employees that I could communicate with. Upon walking in I was greeted and welcomed by a very nice and sweet receptionist and escorted to the massage shower scrub room which was absolutely impeccable with state of the art equipment I had never seen. I did the 1 hour massage with the body scrub and left there feeling like a new man! If your looking to relieve stress, treat your skin while at the same time get an super relaxing massage then I highly recommend you try GoVichy!! read more

Definitely would not go back here. Going in, my friend and I decided that it would be fun to get a massage to kill time while we waited for her car to be fixed. It was my first massage, but she has had multiple massages before this one. I paid for the 60 min massage and she paid for the 90 min. In the beginning, everything seemed super normal, we were asked to change, stepped in the massage room, and got under the covers. I had a female massage therapist and my friend had a male. During my massage, my lady started to pull my bikini bottoms all the way down to my knees and I did NOT want that. So I kept pulling them back up and she would proceed to pull them down like she wasn't getting the hint. I didn't say something because I thought it was normal since this was their most basic massage. She proceeded to cross the boundaries by rubbing in areas that should not be rubbed during a massage even though I was clearly uncomfortable. The same thing happened to my friend with her male massage therapist. Although she wasn't pulling her pants back up, he was proceeding to touch her in an inappropriate way. He was slapping her butt even though it was "part of the massage". He was also jiggling her butt and when he asked her to flip over onto her back, he kept doing things that would expose her chest and he called her cute in the process of this massage. Both massage therapists proceeded to tell us to relax, but we were clearly uncomfortable (they knew that) and we didn't want to be in that room anymore. When we got out of the room, we knew that something was wrong with this massage. I ended up calling my cousin who is a massage therapist and she said that this was NOT normal. The typical rule for a massage is that if a client is wearing clothing over a certain area, they DO NOT want to be worked on there. And if they are exposing themselves in that way, you always ask if they want work done there and keep them covered to respect privacy. If a client is pulling their pants up constantly, that means they do not want you proceeding to touch them in those areas. If you keep having to tell your client to relax, you should know that they are uncomfortable. They never once asked us if they could pull our pants down and touch us the way they did, but they didn't care. When we called back to tell the owner what happened, she said that "next time, we need to speak up". In my mind, this was a "normal" massage (even though it wasn't) because I've never experienced one before. And my friend didn't say anything because she was being handled by a man. We did get a refund, but after going through that, a refund was the least they could do. Would not recommend going here unless you want to feel completely violated and like you have a pit in your stomach at the end. Instead of feeling relax & at peace, we felt sick & disturbed. read more

Yes!!! Everything about GoVichy is a yes!! The ladies who work here are so nice and sweet, I was lost on the way so took me a me bit to get here. But they were so kind and considerate, I loved my body scrub and massage, everything is so professionally done and clean. It is a step up from the regular scrubs that I have gotten in other places. Highly recommend this experience! read more

We were looking for a full body scrub and found GoVichy. Beautiful and CLEAN space. Very professional staff. We'll be back and highly recommend GoVichy to anyone in the Encinitas area looking to be pampered. Great value! Look no further. read more

The scrub is invigorating. Great massage. Super clean. Grace has a good routine. Worth the experience!

Wow!! This was the most amazing spa experience I have done! I was looking to treat myself to a spa experience in North County and I came across GoVichy.com. I had no idea what a vichy experience was and I am so glad to finally have done it. It was the ultimate body care package: massage exfoliation, hair washing massage, followed by warm water showers falling peacefully upon you, and finally a relaxing full body massage with hot stones. This is the best gift I could have given myself. The owner is so lovely and has set up a true heavenly little oasis here. The lady who also massages me was so sweet and had the perfect touch. This spa stands out above the rest. It is so sparkling clean and cozy. The prices for what their deliver for their services is the best deal you will find. Thank you for an amazing heavenly trip! I look forward to my next visit! read more

Great body scrub and massage! So happy to have this in Encinitas. I've been to Aqua in Kearney Mesa, this is much nicer and more private. I did the signature treatment body scrub with the Vichy shower and massage. My therapist was very good, she included lymphatic facial massage and hot stones. Will definitely be back read more

This is so overdue. My son went into hospital the weekend after my visit and I got sidetracked, I'm also terrible about reviews anyway, but this is an exceptional business and I would be amiss, not to share my experience. I brought in a friend, who was visiting from out of town. I wanted to find something special for her, because she is very dear to me. We had the most fantastic experience and the owner is all together lovely, a very successful, interesting, driven woman, yet so friendly and approachable. She immediately makes you feel comfortable and she's so endearing, I found myself wishing we were friends and could hang out together. Haha, she sounds pretty busy though, she has other businesses she tends to and I'm sure excels at, as well. One thing is for sure, she is one who pays attention to detail and is committed to delivering a very special, luxury experience, a cut above the rest. And it's affordable! Affordable luxury. Let GoVichy pamper you for a couple hours, you won't regret it. I can't wait to get back. Maybe I'll see you there! read more

Horrible experience. Facial and massage were not pleasurable at all. Someone kept coming in and out of the massage interrupting the therapist. She kept bumping the table and dropping things during the facial. Also I added on scalp massage with essential oils and neither was done but I was charged for it. read more

This one of the best massages and spa treatment that I have ever had! Grace used a combination of Western and Eastern massage techniques that were amazing. She has obviously had some extensive training. I thought the stones were perfect temperature, as well as the aromatherapy. She was very professional with the vichy shower and exfoliation, which was greatly appreciated. I would definitely go back. read more

Amee gave a wonderful massage. This place is clean and pretty. There was a strange odor like onions but other than that everything was wonderful. read more

Tried this instead of taking a whole day for a korean spa. Excellent body scrub & massage by Amee. This was a nice, quicker and closer alternative, without the saunas and hot tubs. Amee added some nice touches, such as hot stones, hot towels, aromatherapy and I also opted for some of the add-ons ($), such as hair and CBD. This is a great place for those a little more modest and want privacy for a whole body scrub. read more

I went in to just get a massage, as I had had a body scrub before at a place on Convoy, and while it made for a good story, I wouldn't say it was pleasant. When I saw the treatment room at Vichy, I decided to go ahead and try the body scrub and was so glad I did! You are kept warm with overhead showers, and the wet sheet is peeled off when the scrub is over. The massage therapist dried me and put warm, clean towels on me before starting the full body massage with my choice of essential oil. I also got the hot rocks, which were fantastic! The entire spa is clean and aesthetically pleasing. The receptionist is friendly and knowledgable about the treatments. I will definitely be going back. read more

This place is amazing! A mix of middle eastern hammam/ gommage, hydrotherapy, massage and body work. It's super clean and the prices are so affordable! I highly recommend! If I lived here, I would make this my end of the week ritual every weekend!! read more

This massage experience was unlike all others. You will be pampered from the minute you walk in. Nice men's locker area then to the session for the next 90 minutes. Full body scrub then hydro massage. Full body massage was great I had a deep tissue. My masseuse help me stretch and the hot stone massage. Wow! I would recommend to all. read more
