4 Stars: Great massage (by mcrocket)

mcrocket — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 02:00:00 GMT

Had a great massage here, but since then have been to two other spas in the city and I have to question the rating of best in city. Makes me wonder if something sneaky did not go on with the voting process. However, I love the comfy seating and spacious feeling. I loved the sweet girl, just wish she did not talk so much and could get some of this dang knots out, but she just did not have the touch.
Would love to come here and hang out after a massage with my honey though, very inviting.

5 Stars: Totally Recommend (by cutie81a)

cutie81a — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 02:00:00 GMT

I received a massage from Stephanie and she was absolutely amazing! Very understanding of my needs and really focused on my problem area. I felt extremely relaxed, comfortable, and confident that I was in good hands. I am definitely going back to her. I feel 10 times better! What a massage!

5 Stars: Great Massage for the Office (by smithy11)

smithy11 — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 02:00:00 GMT

We had Stephanie come into our office for three hours and she was the bomb! I wish she could come every week. She gives an excellent chair massage and I am looking forward to going into the studio for my Hot Stone massage. She listens to your needs and goes deep in the areas that really need it. I would definitely go back to her.

4 Stars: Serious muscle relief (by emmelinej)

emmelinej — Sun, 02 Dec 2007 01:00:00 GMT

I have had some good, bad and ugly massages in my time and would have to give Therapeia a thumbs up. It was a totally relaxing experience and I felt like a new woman when I left. I had lots of muscle aches prior to my appointment but felt SO much better after an hour of deep tissue massage..blissful. I have not given the full five stars because I felt that the reception area was a bit chaotic and the receptionist rushed me through.

5 Stars: The best deep tissue therapist (by wormly47)

wormly47 — Sun, 12 Aug 2007 02:00:00 GMT

If your looking for serious deep tissue Stephanie is your girl. I have been to many therapist over the years and have lived with painful neck and shoulder issues. I was needing someone with a more clinical approach and I finally found her. Stephanie is not your standard relaxation therapist. She will get you out of pain. All you need to do is tell her whats bothering you and she gets right to the problem. I have been so happy since I started seeing her. I make my appointments ahead of time so I always know I will get in on her schedule. Give her a try you wont be disappointed.

5 Stars: Great massage - problem solved! (by gelalu)

gelalu — Tue, 17 Apr 2007 02:00:00 GMT

After moving across the country and my husband going out of the country right away, I was in charge of unpacking... but I found just the help that I needed at Therapeia. The receptionist listened to my concerns about my back and neck and scheduled me appropriately - I was set for a massage the same day with Colin. He is a great therapist and I'm very grateful for the relief that I got out of one hour massage! Thank you! I hope to return soon!

5 Stars: THE place for massage!! (by poisongrrl)

poisongrrl — Sun, 25 Feb 2007 01:00:00 GMT

I have found THE place for massage!! From the cute, friendly staff (they answer the phone 'how can we help you enjoy life more?' ) to the newly re-modeled lounge in the back, this place is the best! My massage was AMAZING! My therapist checked in with me about pressure, and you could tell he really knew what he was doing. It was the perfect blend of 'working out the kinks' and divine relaxation. After 90 minutes, I felt light and free, without a care in the world. Reception was sweet and efficient. I think it's safe to say I'll be back again and again. They definitley helped me 'enjoy life more' :)

5 Stars: Great Attitudes and Service (by esteelesanfran)

esteelesanfran — Tue, 03 Oct 2006 02:00:00 GMT

I have been getting massage from Kate for years and can tell you she is among the best of the best - strong and thoughtful while working with a deep understanding of what a pained body needs. When she joined Therapeia last year I knew it must be a quality healing facility. Her practice has only gotten better and I have been very impressed with the other therapists I've encountered when visiting Therapeia. Now pregnant and past my due date, I have begun acupunture treatments with Craig to avoid medical inducement. He and his treatment have been wonderful. He listens to my needs (both physical and emotional) and has helped me tremendously in my efforts to focus on what I can do to help my body along while providing gentle and effective treatment. Yes it is true, the do only have room tempature water in their waiting room. but who need cold cucumber water and a fancy spa lounge (which is not advertised and only drives up costs in my opinion) when you get individualized holistic healing and great service?

3 Stars: Overpriced, lacking in giving extra care and attention, price doesn't match overall service and conditions (by ksnw)

ksnw — Thu, 27 Jul 2006 02:00:00 GMT

I recently went back to Therapea with a guest and was sadly disappointed. It's a hard place to find if you're not familiar with S.F. It would have been helpful if the receptionist had informed me of such and perhaps mailed me a map or given me the heads up. The bathroom did not have any soap, the receptionist seemed very busy taking calls, answering questions, and taking care of payments. It didn't seem real organized. There were no hangers available in the massage room. There was a water dispenser which contained ordinary water which was luke warm...with only one glass available on the plastic tray. Didn't get the wax and brow shaping that I had signed up for...but, instead I received a free tweeze (a light one at that), which was determined to be all that was necessary. If you want to receive a menu of all of their services and costs involved, go to their website and be sure and print it out 'cuz you won't find it at the spa. No "menu" was available for the taking or browsing. Just a broshure that provided only some information and some visuals. The products are very good, nonetheless. The massage therapist and estetician (sp?) that were assigned to us were also very well trained. Nice music in the background. Fountains. I think I could go to a spa in my own home town and get far more special attention, ammenities, and a comparable facial for far less money...and my home town is in the beautiful Napa Valley!

5 Stars: Best Hot Stone Massage Ever (by deesf)

deesf — Wed, 07 Jun 2006 02:00:00 GMT

I love hot stone massage and this was by far the best hot stone massage ever. I had Allie for 1 1/2 hour massage and she was amazing. Listened to me and sensed my needs and problem stress areas. I felt pampered and well taken care of. The decor and facilities are just OK - not particularly lavish, but everything was clean. The front desk was helpful and this is how they answer the phone "how can we help you enjoy life more?"
Massage was expensive, but well worth it.

5 Stars: best massage in the city (by sfgirl9339)

sfgirl9339 — Mon, 15 May 2006 02:00:00 GMT

everyone i've seen is incredibly talented, from facials to deep tissue massages to hot stone massages. incredible, no frills value that will leave you feeling fabulous.

5 Stars: The best massage session I have ever had!! (by femmebot)

femmebot — Mon, 24 Apr 2006 02:00:00 GMT

After having my last couple of massage experiences leave me cold, I set out in the search for something better. My quest led me to Therapia and Ill never go anywhere else. The spa decor and general atmosphere are very relaxing and immediately start relieving your stress. My massage therapist, Florence, had her work cut out for her since I had had a migraine a few days before and had thrown my hip out the previous night. I told her about the migraine but not the hip, I didnt want to overload her. I might as well have given her a detailed chart of all my misalignments because she sought them all out and adjusted me back to normal. This was not just a back rub! Florence is obviously a very talented healer. She employed several healing methods during my session. I could not be happier with my experience.

5 Stars: Excellent all around (by muppditt)

muppditt — Thu, 02 Mar 2006 01:00:00 GMT

I am a dancer and really need a good deep massage on a regular basis. I always find that whoever I book with listens to me and uses the techniques I suggest. I don't know why this business visitor rated his massage so badly just because he can't figure out to park in the nearby garage and can't read simple parking rule signs. Well, he's a tourist so of course...the big city is so SCAWY!

5 Stars: Sufian Life saver! (by dj_rachel)

dj_rachel — Wed, 18 Jan 2006 01:00:00 GMT

I had the worst shoulder/neck pain. This man saved me! I felt good when I left, but the results came the next day, 100% better. I have been to Therapia about 4 times now and it has been always a great experience, but this last "treatment" with Sufian brought it to a new level!

5 Stars: thank you, thank you! (by kitkat003)

kitkat003 — Fri, 04 Nov 2005 01:00:00 GMT

I called Therapeia and told them that my neck was really bothering me, did they have someone who could help me? I had a 90 minute massage with Dillon and she totally saved me. Not only that, but they made it really easy for me to come in; told me where to park to save time and offered to work with my schedule so that i didn't stress out about it and make my neck worse. The ENTIRE staff was super nice but not cheesy so i felt totally comfortable. After my first visit i became a member and now go for a therapeutic massage every month. they have totally changed my outlook on massage. It's about maintaining health, not pampering yourself (even though it feels so good!!)

5 Stars: Many Thanks Stephanie! (by mikeminority)

mikeminority — Fri, 07 Oct 2005 02:00:00 GMT

If it wasnt for Stephanie I wouldn't be able to play my guitar! I had severe neck pain and numbness in my arms and hands. She made it possible for me to play again. I am so Greatful to her. Therapeia has a great environment and you never leave disappointed.

5 Stars: Cranial Sacral work by Mia (by 2929)

2929 — Sat, 10 Sep 2005 02:00:00 GMT

What a great experience...Mia is a great practitioner. I've had cranial work done before from skilled workers and I felt they were great, but Mia's technique really integrates massage and cranial adjustment and I highly reccommend her. These techniques are very powerful, not just for the body but for the mind. She does a great job. I could feel my body healing itself with her guidance.

5 Stars: Mia gave me the best massage I've ever had... (by jo1954)

jo1954 — Sat, 10 Sep 2005 02:00:00 GMT

Thanks to Mia! I went in feeling a little dissapointed from my last massage experience at a different spa...but this was wonderful! Mia really listened to me and was such a great practitioner...I was so pleased with her manner and her skill level. I'm trying to get my brother to go in and see her, and he isn't really all about massage, but I know Mia can help him. I feel like I have a new back!

5 Stars: best massage ever...thank you, dean! (by ittb)

ittb — Mon, 05 Sep 2005 02:00:00 GMT

i get alot of massages...and never, in my entire life, have i had a massage so perfect. it was therapeutic, as well as soothing. you really just have to come in and get a massage for yourself, because i really can't describe the experience aptly. i'm even trying to convince my boyfriend (who doesn't want a massage from a guy) to get a massage from dean because it was just so excellent

5 Stars: Dean - thank you (by ergeshmergle)

ergeshmergle — Mon, 29 Aug 2005 02:00:00 GMT

I had my massage from Dean yesterday and wanted to leave a review for him because I feel so much better today. Sitting at my desk I can notice a difference in how my shoulders feel, and I'm so grateful - I can't wait unitl next time. It is a pleasant place to be, and Dean makes it even more worthwhile. He also uses great music mixes that he makes himself. Thank you Dean!!

5 Stars: A completely indulgent massage~ (by patrick39)

patrick39 — Fri, 12 Aug 2005 02:00:00 GMT

To keep this short and to the point: Dean provided me with a stellar 60 minute massage session yesterday. I too am a bodyworker and was stunned and left in awe after my massage. Words cannot describe how great I felt during and after the session.

I am now hooked and will continue to be a regular client at Therapeia. Dean is hands down a true talent to his credit! Thank you so much for the prudent bodywork...

5 Stars: Too Good To Be True! (by uzd2wrk)

uzd2wrk — Mon, 25 Jul 2005 02:00:00 GMT

This place is absolute heaven! I have seen every therapist there and they are nothing short of AMAZING! Everyone greeted me with genuine care, concern and a smile! I'll never go anywhere else, again... "I left my heart in Therapeia"... and you will to!

2 Stars: Facials are not worth the wait, or money.... (by moncada4444)

moncada4444 — Sat, 23 Jul 2005 02:00:00 GMT

I wanted to give my mother a really great birthday present, and so I decided to treat her to a facial at Therapeia. I made the appointment a week in advance for 6:00. The receptionist told us to arrive 15 minutes early, and we got there at 5:40. But we ended up waiting an hour until the facialist came to get my mom. If it had been me I would have left, but I wanted my mom to enjoy her birthday and feel relaxed. The atmosphere was nice, but waiting for an hour made me pretty upset that I didn't really care, especially when the facial cost $155! My mom enjoyed the facial, but said that it wasn't anything special (I didn't tell her how much it was.) Overrall save yourself some money and time and go somewhere else for a facial.

5 Stars: Look no more for a great massage... (by ann_in_ca)

ann_in_ca — Tue, 05 Jul 2005 02:00:00 GMT

If you are in search for a wonderful massage, look no further! I have been fortunate to find Sufian A., a wonderful massage therapist at Therapeia that not only works on relaxing your body but also renewing your spirit. I have received numerous massages from other places both within and outside the United States, but Sufian is the one person I trust to always relax me - you will not regret it when you make an appointment with him!

5 Stars: Paradise in the City (by lovestobepampered)

lovestobepampered — Sat, 14 May 2005 02:00:00 GMT

WOW! What a beautiful oasis of tranquility. From the minute I walked in the door I felt relaxed and welcome. The front desk staff was really nice and helpful. The whole place was so elegant, such a nice change from some of those clinical looking all-white spas. My hot stone massage was amazing. I felt like melted butter. You should definitely check out the hot stone.

5 Stars: go to Therapeia for the best massage (by alinaann)

alinaann — Sun, 08 May 2005 02:00:00 GMT

Of all the spas I have visited, Therapeia is the place to go for the absolute best massage, specifically its hot stone massage. Sufian A. is by far the most talented massage therapist. Every time I visit, he ensures that my massage is both relaxing and healing; I always leave feeling renewed. For those seeking these types of results, I highly recommend that you visit Sufian and Therapeia. You will not be disappointed.

5 Stars: Craig is great! (by terryplant1999)

terryplant1999 — Fri, 06 May 2005 02:00:00 GMT

Therapeia is a beautiful, comfortable space! I went to Therapeia on a friend's recommendation. She saw the acupuncturist while she was pregnant and loved him. Craig was really nice and made me feel comfortable right away. He is very intuitive and I felt terrific after the session.

5 Stars: best massage in SF! (by sfsus)

sfsus — Fri, 06 May 2005 02:00:00 GMT

My back had really been bothering me at work and I was complaining about it to one of my co-workers who I knew used to have some pain from sitting so much too. She told me that her massage therapist at Therapeia had totally helped her by not only making her back feel better, but by giving her stretches to do at work and at home between sessions. I called right away and the really helpful front desk staff fit me in ASAP! I had 90 minutes, which was totally affordable, and I am going back next week. Everyone is really knowlegeable there and I just felt taken care of. I really recommend going here if you are in pain and need to be fixed, or even if you just want to feel better.

5 Stars: a new attitude (by lsdaniels)

lsdaniels — Fri, 06 May 2005 02:00:00 GMT

I just had the worst day of my life! I was so upset when I walked through the doors of Therapeia, that I was ready to do something drastic. I was greeted with surprising warmth and compassion even though I was 20min. late and pissed! My massage therapist Evan, was so nuturing and gave me the most amazing massage of my life! Not only was my body transformed, but Evans incredible work saved me from making a rash decision! I can not stop talking about Evan to my friends so I had to write a review and let everyone else know. Thank you Therapeia!

5 Stars: great vibe; affordable deep tissue! (by nancyjackso)

nancyjackso — Fri, 06 May 2005 02:00:00 GMT

if you want to relax and feel better, this is THE place to go!
deep tissue and therapeutic work is the standard; they don't try and charge you extra for it! the rooms are cozy and warm, and the people are totally chill.

5 Stars: Lara Klemens' massage (by cmarble)

cmarble — Fri, 06 May 2005 02:00:00 GMT

My body quickly came to a state of bliss when Lara's strong, sensitive hands went to work on my tight, achy body. Tremendous release was experienced almost immediately, the stresses of the week melted away, and my being felt peaceful once more. I loved it!!

5 Stars: total enjoyment (by santiago2005)

santiago2005 — Fri, 06 May 2005 02:00:00 GMT

I'm not your "regular" spa person, but I hadn't had a facial since the dark ages, and the appointment was a gift! I was so pleasantly and thoroughly delighted with not only the facial, but Diane was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and sincerely friendly. She had helpful tips regarding skin improvement that didn't even require the use of products.The products she did use and her techniques made my skin feel so clean and soft and velvety! Having a facial from her was an elegant and enjoyable experience plus the atmosphere at Therapia was peaceful. The staff professional, warm, friendly, and kind. This is a terrific place!

5 Stars: Best Massage in The City! (by brucey2000)

brucey2000 — Thu, 05 May 2005 02:00:00 GMT

This place is amazing! not only are the practitioners highly skilled, the front desk staff is delightful to deal with. I felt transported to a relaxing paradise!

5 Stars: When You Are Ready for a Real Massage (by madchristopher)

madchristopher — Thu, 05 May 2005 02:00:00 GMT

From the moment you walk in to Therapeia, you know this is not your typical day spa. The desk staff is warm and friendly. They are quick to offer water in a glass. The massage therapist was on time and happy to see me. There were no bathrobes or champagne, but the bodywork is where it is at. The therapist applied perfect pressure for the best two hour massage I have ever had. After I was finished, the therapist offered me a nice card with some of his reccomendations. I also found out they offer yoga and acupuncture. Therapeis rocks.

5 Stars: utopia (by christine13)

christine13 — Sat, 30 Apr 2005 02:00:00 GMT

From the moment I walked in I was greeted with smiles and warmth from everyone I came into contact with. The massage was the best I have EVER had and I have been getting massages for over 20 years for chronic back pain. My therapist seemed almost clairvoyant in knowing exactly how much pressure to use and where I needed work. I had to force myself to stand upright afterwards and leave after making another appointment for the following weekend! This place is a real gem!

5 Stars: Amazing Acupuncture (by funloverinsf)

funloverinsf — Tue, 06 Jul 2004 02:00:00 GMT

Healed! Craig made my knee pain disappear! He was extremely thorough in his consultation (explained everything!) and very warm and friendly, which instantly put me at ease. The treatment ended up being unbelievably relaxing and healing. I can't wait to go back for another session. I know that the acupuncture and yoga are excellent...now I am just dying to try a massage and facial. Pretty awesome how everyone at Therapeia is freindly, too... such a great vibe there.

5 Stars: Awesome Massage (by sherman200352)

sherman200352 — Wed, 10 Dec 2003 01:00:00 GMT

Wow is all I can say! I've heard the buzz and this place really lives up to it! Friendly staff, warm and inviting decor, luxurious room and the best massage I have ever had!

5 Stars: Oasis in the city! (by surfman50002003)

surfman50002003 — Wed, 10 Dec 2003 01:00:00 GMT

What a treat! I am so glad I discovered this oasis of healing and relaxation. A friend turned me on to it and I am so grateful. I have been looking for a really good massage place and Therapeia has it all. Great staff, nice vibe and truly amazing massage!!!!! I tried the Bliss Therapy and the name does not do it justice. I was transported to another dimension! A two person massage-- how cool is that-- follwed by steam tent and a warm oil treatment. You gotta check this out.

5 Stars: It just doesn't get any better than this (by kacega)

kacega — Fri, 26 Sep 2003 02:00:00 GMT

If a good bikini wax is what you're looking for, this is your place and Melanie is your woman! I'm a shy girl when it comes to these things, but Melanie's professional demeanor put me at ease immediately. She does a wonderful job. I will never go to anyone else!

5 Stars: A Touch of Heaven (by shannonallen)

shannonallen — Fri, 26 Sep 2003 02:00:00 GMT

If you've ever wondered what it felt like to be touched by an angel, sign up for a facial at Therapeia. All of your worries will disappear as you slip into the serenity of spa life. Pamper yourself. Revel in you. Therapeia takes you under their wing and make you feel like new again. Massages that leave you in tears of joy, facials that make you sparkle & glow and of course, there's waxing for all. I'm telling ya' it's what living is all about!!

5 Stars: Ahhhhhhsome... (by casinsf)

casinsf — Fri, 19 Sep 2003 02:00:00 GMT

What a wonderful massage! Definitely one of the best I've had! Jennifer was wonderful. This is a great place - with heated massage tables! I thought that was a nice touch. The therapists here are a cut above the rest!

5 Stars: Cellulite be gone! (by bikinigirl)

bikinigirl — Mon, 25 Aug 2003 02:00:00 GMT

Thanks to Therapeia and Endermologie, I am able to wear a bikini on my honeymoon and not be ashamed of my dimple-ridden backside...A horrifying experience to look in the mirror since adolescence, I am finally free to live like a normal person. Endermologie is amazing - basically a machine that rolls over your body like a vacuum - very relaxing and it actually feels good. The staff is very personable and were sensitive to my needs. To all of the women out there who have ever felt self-concious or less than - this is the answer! No more puckering skin or drooping butt cheeks. No more shorts instead of bathing suit bottoms. Thank you!

5 Stars: wow! experience (by emmysu)

emmysu — Fri, 22 Aug 2003 02:00:00 GMT

I never submit my 2cents, but Helene was so great at Therapeia, I feel it would be a disservice to the public if I didn't let you know: Had the BEST massage of my life. I'm usually really tense and tickish--practically unmassageable. Helene gave me such a great massage, I slept so well last night! Today, I woke up ultra-refreshed for the first time in months! Thanks!

5 Stars: Best Massage Ever.... (by sanfraner)

sanfraner — Thu, 21 Aug 2003 02:00:00 GMT

I got the hot stone massage and it was by far the best massage experience of my life. I am a spa regular and have tried many of the more upscale places in the city. Although Therapeia has fairly sparce but clean decor, the therapists were extremely attentive and the well trained. I have found my favorite spa in the city and plan to become a regular of Therapeia.

5 Stars: The best massage..ever (by Maven01)

Maven01 — Wed, 16 Jul 2003 02:00:00 GMT

I just have to let everyone know what a fantastic place this is! My husband and I went in for Hot Stone massages wondering what in the world that was -- It's the most amazing massage we've ever had. I woke up with warm stones in between my toes and underneath me they had placed the stones as an outline of my body. My husband could barely speak because he was so relaxed. He took me out for my favorite dinner to thank me for choosing the best massage place!

5 Stars: BLISSFUL MASSAGE!! (by mkdick)

mkdick — Mon, 14 Jul 2003 02:00:00 GMT

This is the best massage/spa place I've ever been to - the therapists are really advanced in massage techniques and I felt that they could have charged twice as much for the amazing massage I received. Try the hot stone - it's the best!!

5 Stars: great yoga classes! (by beth)

beth — Tue, 25 Mar 2003 01:00:00 GMT

the yoga classes at therapeia are the best in the city, hands down. they are big enough to bring a sense of community to your yoga practice but small enough that you get real attention from the instructor. Plus the teachers are super friendly and knowledgeable. They really care about you and your practice no matter where you are.

5 Stars: Hot Stone Facial (by Barbra)

Barbra — Wed, 12 Mar 2003 01:00:00 GMT

Oh my, what a treat. This was the most soothing and relaxing facial I've ever experianced. Afterwards I just felt beautiful.

firedancer24 — Tue, 11 Feb 2003 01:00:00 GMT

I just experienced the most wonderful treatment. I had a hotstone massage followed by a hotstone facial. It was heavenly to have the stones melting the muscles in my body. The staff was excellent and the sapce unique. I will definatly be back for more.

5 Stars: Outstanding Massage (by sloegin2002)

sloegin2002 — Fri, 24 Jan 2003 01:00:00 GMT

I received a massage for the first time at therapeia, it was OUTSTANDING. I was in a world of hurt, and when I came out I was fixed. Massage therapist was extremely attentive and skilled. Friendly, welcoming staff and nice ambience.

5 Stars: My Last Resort (by hsager)

hsager — Tue, 21 Jan 2003 01:00:00 GMT

I've come yet again when I was in such chronic pain I had nowhere else to turn. Therapeia's technicians are GREAT. I've had cranial-sacral, traditional, and hot stone massage... all were very helpful. I will come again and again for the friendly, professional, and talented individuals who make this place #1!!

5 Stars: Amazing Hot Stone Massage (by hipragazza)

hipragazza — Mon, 22 Jul 2002 02:00:00 GMT

I noticed Therapeia while going down Bush street when I was feeling stressed and as soon as I went in I knew it was the right place. It smelled of soothing essential oils, the rooms were beautiful and the atmosphere was extremely relaxing. My massage therapist was incredible. I was amazed how much better I felt as soon as I felt the warmth of the stones. They aren't just placed on energy centers like the hot stone I'd received in Arizona, but I was actually massaged with them which I found released a lot of tension in my whole body...especially the shoulders. My therapist was gentle but extraordinarily strong for such a petite woman. I would highly recommend Therapeia for massage AND yoga.

5 Stars: blissful experience (by dharmabum)

dharmabum — Tue, 09 Jul 2002 02:00:00 GMT

I stumbled upon Therapeia by accident and boy I am sure glad that I did. The yoga teachers are extremely helpful and the staff very friendly and they make you feel right at home.One touch from a Therapeia massage therapist and you will melt on the spot guaranteed.

5 Stars: Just what I needed! (by papabingo)

papabingo — Sat, 29 Jun 2002 02:00:00 GMT

I had taken yoga classes in the past but, I had never been made to feel so welcome and comfortable. The instrutor (Lara Iden) was attentive and helped me get over feelimg like I needed a super beginner class. The best part of the night was the free chair massage after class! Talk about unwinding after work.
The funniest thing was that I knew two people in class and someone on staff, woh knew?

5 Stars: Yoga a truly meditative workout (by urb)

urb — Wed, 26 Jun 2002 02:00:00 GMT

I went to David Lurie's Tuesday 7:30PM ashtanga yoga class and walked out healed and toxin free. I have been to several Yoga classes around the Bay Area and David's has been the most beneficial to me. He creates an atmosphere that is amiable to all levels, fully describing how to get into each position and points out methods of opening your body slowly, listening to your breath always. Every class I learn something new, a better way to release my daily stress and increase my flexibility. David also works really well on an individual case, helping each person get into the correct position that works best for each of their bodies.

5 Stars: I wish I knew about them sooner (by ewing2020)

Therapeia was a total surprise. I never thought it'd be like this - I'd driven by thier sign for months before I decided to check 'em out. I never thought a massage would be able to make my back pain go away, but after 90 minutes of hot stone treatment not only did it release all my pain, but I felt intoxicatingly happy - it was the most amazing sensation! Plus the place is clean - eat-off-the-floors clean. The people are really nice. My back was killing me until I found this place, I wish someone told ME about them 6 months ago.

Without a doubt, the best massage I've ever had in my life.
I'm as loose as a goose. I haven't felt this good in years.
The space is beautiful and I found the staff to be genuinely friendly and knowledgeable. I definately did not feel like another dollar sign walking through the door.
