I booked the Rejuvenation package with my best friend, which includes a massage, tea service, and…read morecedar bath. From the moment we arrived, everything felt elevated. The facilities are extremely clean, and the staff are polite, professional, and attentive. After check-in, you're guided to a locker room to change into a robe before heading to your services. We started with massages. Mine was fine but not particularly memorable, while my friend had a lymphatic massage and loved it. Afterward, we spent time in the zen garden before heading to the tea garden for tea service, both of which were beautiful and relaxing. The cedar bath was the highlight. You're buried in warm shredded cedar infused with enzymes that generate heat naturally, creating a deeply relaxing experience. The session lasts about 15-20 minutes, followed by a rinse-off and shower in the same room. Overall, this was a really nice experience, though definitely a splurge. After tipping 20%, our total came out to $780. Of all the services, the cedar bath felt the most worth it since it's such a unique experience. One thing to note: I wasn't able to reach the spa by phone and had to communicate via email, so plan ahead if you need to make changes.

Not only is she extremely knowledgable and skilled in the realm of bodies and healing, she is uniquely thoughtful and conscientious in terms of how accessibility, identity, and trauma can inform one's experience and needs around bodywork and healing. This is further demonstrated in her commitment to financial accessibility, for which she has several programs she offers to make holistic healthcare available to folks who otherwise might not be able to afford her work. I have been seeing Jolene regularly for several months now and intend to keep doing so -- can't recommend her enough, especially for fellow queer folks!

A close friend has had chronic pain in his back and legs, I told him about Apple, and he said massage wouldn't work. I wasn't sure he could get a massage, partially because he has mobility issues and is not comfortable in any position for long periods of time, but I thought it was worth pursuing, so I called Apple to get more information. She had an easy manner, answered all my questions, and because of his initial reticence, she offered to meet me at my my friend's home. With some coaxing, we met at together at his home, and he was immediately put at ease by Apple's warmth, genuine caring nature, and breadth of education. and when I mentioned she had a fellowship for massage therapy at UCSF, he booked a massage. She asked about his needs, likes, dislikes, and the way she explained her approach to giving massage that's adapted to each client's specific needs. I was struck by how caring and intuitive Apple was of what his needs were, not only physically, but emotionally. The following week, Apple came to his home prepared with everything needed to keep him comfortable and relaxed for the massage, and later that day, he called to tell me he couldn't recall a time that he felt such "relief from pain." Apple has become an important member of his regular wellness care team, and both he, and I so grateful for her expertise. Thank you Apple!

I consulted Dennis, and after each treatment my arm grew stronger and felt less pain. After three treatments my pain is fully gone, and I'm now able to use it like before. What really struck me about Dennis was how much he listened to my words as well as my body before deciding how to treat. Since fixing my elbow, I've seen Dennis to help me get through sinus infections, colds & menstrual issues. He's amazingly knowledgeable on everything I've come in with, and again he really listens! He prescribes Chinese herbs that have done miracles, and I always leave his office feeling so much better. Thank you dennis and the redwood needle!
