Quick update [[HIGHLIGHT]]Another great visit to this spot[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My partner really liked this therapist: _ Sufian

As a holistic wellness professional and a life long student of healing I am so happy to announce that SenSpa is hands down the best spa in the BayArea! Great job to the entire team who makes this space so safe and healing for our mandatory monthly wellness meetings. We love coming here every time we are in the city. Today's therapist was Becka, and was amazing with her intuitive approach in trigger release therapy. Absolutely recommend to add SenSpa to your wellness routine.

Super Comfortable Chairs.

I went to SenSpa for the first time on Monday June 16th at 2pm. I was running a bit late, but [[HIGHLIGHT]]the staff was very accommodating, professional and polite.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The space is very comfortable. I went with Chien-An Tao/Gabriel Tao who is from New Zealand while he was in San Francisco for a conference!

SenSpa is such a special place to me. The location alone, in the Presidio, is unbeatable, surrounded by natural beauty. After my massages, I love taking a stroll to Tunnel Tops nearby, where a charming café offers great food, drinks, and stunning views. It's the perfect way to extend the relaxation after a treatment. Now, back to SenSpa! The space is beautifully designed, and although parking is on the street, I did suggest dedicated or complimentary garage parking, so guests don't have to think about fees while unwinding. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'm always warmly greeted by the friendly reception staff, and whenever I have time to arrive early, I can settle into the robe and slippers offered in the locker room.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]If I'm running late, the team is so accommodating, they'll even have my robe and slippers ready in the treatment room, which is a thoughtful touch.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Plus, you can linger as long as you like after your treatment to relax.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I enjoy celebrating my birthday here, especially with the complimentary glass of prosecco, which feels like such a treat![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The facility is impeccably clean, with thoughtfully placed teas, infused water, and snacks. One of my favorite areas is the room with the fireplace and recliners, it's cozy, with journals left by other guests, which are fun to browse. The relaxation room also offers scented oils to try, adding a nice sensory experience. As for the massage therapists, Christine and Theresa are my go-tos, they're incredibly skilled and detail-oriented. Their caring touch is something I truly appreciate. Having been a massage therapist for over 20 years, I can confidently say they provide some of the best massages I've ever had. The massage rooms are dimly lit, with comfortable tables, and they even offer scented oils (lavender is my favorite). The steam room is another bonus, though I can only handle it for a few minutes! SenSpa truly feels like a little slice of heaven in the Presidio. It's refreshingly down-to-earth, and the prices are fair for the experience they provide. I'm a customer for life. Thank you, SenSpa!

I had a wonderful time at SenSpa! Came in for a couples massage and had such a relaxing time. Since it was our first time there, we were given a tour of the spa and shown all the amenities before our appointment. The locker room was clean and you're given a robe, sandals and space to lock away all your possessions. The couples massage was fantastic and we were in wonderful hands with Mei and Naomi. I had the deep tissue massage and felt all the tension release from my body. I definitely enjoyed the experience and will come back again.

It's my favorite spa in Sf. Has both steam sauna and dry saunas, wine and beer bar, light therapy in dry sauna, sensory deprivation float tank and of course all the massages. I've had a Swedish massage, deep tissue massage and facial here. It's worth it. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

This is the table stand. So cute
Patsy L.

I received a gift certificate to this place. I made an appt online. I was completely amazed when I walked in. The outside looks like plain buildings. Once you walk in there's a retail area, a cafe, and a seating area to relax. It was so spacious! I was expecting a nice cozy place. That wasn't it though. You keep walking past that and there's a 2nd relaxing area that's enclosed with glass and with spa music. If you walk further in, there's another relaxing area which is the meditation area. They offer citrus ice water, tea, and snacks (apricots, almonds, chocolate covered almonds). The women's locker room is clean. There's a steam room, bathroom, and showers. They provide shampoo, conditioner, lotion, hairspray, blow dryer, & brush. There's a robe & rubber slippers in every locker. The lockers are password coded. The first time I went, I had a massage and it was great. The rooms are huge, clean, and smell nice. The second time I went I had a craniosacral massage. It wasn't what I thought it would be. The masseuse will put light pressure on an area and just stay there for what seems like 7-10mins. There's no massaging whatsoever. I don't think they should list this as a massage but should be under the category that acupuncture is under. Anyway, expensive lesson to learn. I'll know to schedule an actual massage next time. This place is expensive but you get great service, ambiance, and treatments

I booked an appointment with Roxanne after seeing so many great reviews on Yelp. I have acne-prone…read moreskin and have tried a lot of products and specialists over time. I also follow a maintenance routine prescribed by my dermatologist and usually get facials periodically, so I came in specifically for a facial. Roxanne is a very pleasant woman and looks great, which naturally builds trust. We agreed on a deluxe facial. The experience itself was honestly fantastic. At one point, while I had a mask on and steam over my face, she was also massaging my hands and feet, which made the whole experience deeply relaxing. Physically, it was exactly what I needed. However, there were two important things that didn't sit right with me and are the reason I wouldn't come back. First, regarding the treatment itself: I expected the facial to include extractions, but it ended up being only chemical and ultrasonic cleansing, without manual extractions. This is important for me since I had some closed comedones. Maybe that was just a mismatch in expectations, which I can understand. What affected me much more was the second part. After the 1.5-hour treatment, when I was very relaxed, Roxanne offered me water, stepped out so I could get dressed, and then came back in to discuss "next steps." She asked about my current skincare, and I mentioned dermatologist-prescribed products (Differin and azelaic acid). She responded somewhat dismissively, saying something along the lines of "that's from the pharmacy, right? It's not as good as these..." and then started pulling out products she recommended instead. She then calculated everything on her phone and showed me a total of around $550, including the facial (about $215) and three products, each around $100. She mentioned there was a discount available right now and said there was "no pressure," but it definitely felt like a strong sales push. I'm not someone who makes quick purchasing decisions, especially not impulsively and not at that price point. In the past, I've appreciated when specialists recommend options in different price ranges or explain alternatives with similar active ingredients, so I can make an informed decision based on my budget. That didn't happen here, and the situation felt like aggressive upselling, especially right after such a relaxing treatment. I told her I wasn't planning on that kind of budget and needed time to think, and asked if I could take photos to research the products. She said she would send me links and asked that I purchase through her if I decide to go ahead, since she spent time explaining everything. I left feeling very mixed. Physically, I felt great, but emotionally I felt a bit drained. I understand everyone needs to make a living, but I really don't like aggressive sales tactics, especially during a first visit and when it comes with dismissing what already works for me. I don't have any negative feelings toward Roxanne personally, but I wouldn't choose to repeat this experience.

I am so grateful to have found Roxanne - she is an incredible esthetician and very knowledgeable…read more She has transformed my skin! If you are looking for an expert who gives super high quality facials and products at reasonable prices, she's it. I also love her product suite and swear by it to friends. Highly recommend her services!

I've been seeing Valeriya for regular facials for over a year now, and I almost don't want to write…read morethis review because she's just so good at what she does I kind of want to gatekeep her! I started seeing her a year before my wedding with the goal of improving my overall skin texture, tone, and health. Besides being a master of her craft, Valeriya is just the sweetest, kindest, most patient person. She really takes the time to get to know you and your skin. Of course you have to go semi-consistently for this to really be possible, but consistency is key with anything skin-related, and patience too. The first time I saw her I did a Hydrafacial, but she recommended we switch to DMK and that's what we've been doing almost every session since (with a few chemical peels sprinkled in). Every time I see her she switches things up as needed based on what my skin needs that day. That's what I love about her--it's never one-size-fits-all with her treatments--she understands my skin and can predict what it needs and how it will react. She's also incredibly generous with her time and will respond to texts whenever I have had questions outside of our sessions--she truly cares about her clients and their outcomes. I've also done Aerolase laser treatments a couple of times to target stubborn cystic pimples and have had great results. Of course Valeriya doesn't do the laser herself, but her nurse Pearl is such a sweetheart as well and I love that her and Valeriya work together as a team to make sure their clients are getting the right combination of treatments to address their specific skin concerns. Valeriya is never pushy with products, but I have purchased and used many of the products she has recommended to me since I started working with her. Although not every single product has become a consistent staple in my skincare routine, the ones that have are products I am truly obsessed with and feel have made a massive difference in my skin since using them consistently. My skin was absolutely glowing on my wedding day and I give 90% of the credit for that to Valeriya, and only 10% to myself for being consistent with my skincare routine (that Valeriya created for me). There's no one I trust more with my skin, and I will be a client for life!

I'm so glad we have Credo storefronts in the city. My partner and I both booked makeup one-on-one…read moresessions this past summer in preparation for our wedding, and it was a great experience. Neither of us wear makeup on a regular basis, and my techniques were stuck in 2008 lol. So the class was a much needed refresher on current makeup trends. Together, we spent about $750 and didn't get any free samples or gifts with purchase like you would online, so for that reason, in the future, I'll probably go there to try on makeup and make my purchases online, or be more direct in asking for samples/gifts with purchase. I really like all the products I purchased, though my partner picked up some duds (bad packaging, dry product) so in the future, we will make sure everything is working properly before the return window lapses, because these products are not cheap!

Who doesn't love a "green clean" makeup bar. I switched over from Sephora many moons ago. Bring in…read moreyour empties for points. High quality green products and makeup. Visiting the store is nice to try & see things in person. The staff were so helpful in explaining who makes the products and what goes into it. A must pop in while strolling Fillmore. A clean bright store and gifts with purchase and they can make you samples if you are curious. At the very least grab yourself a balm that can be used anywhere & anytime for your purse for some on the go hydration.
