I finally signed up for a membership and it's been some years since I've been here. I recently had foot surgery so I definitely wanted to get back on track with healing and doing it in the most optimal way. What better way than to get a lymphatic massage for my lower body. I also booked for red light therapy on a mat. I ended up booking a sample package and my first stop was the lymph with neuro. I got into a bodysuit that would put pressure on my lower extremities intermittently. I liked it but I started to feel uncomfortable on my foot where I had surgery, so I asked to stop and do it next time. Then I was led to the hydrotherapy- waterbed with nice jets underneath. That was a very relaxing massage that I dozed off to. When the 15 minute timer went off on that, I then was whisked off to the large fascia roller. Super interesting. It's a large roller where you lean any body part against to get the circulation going. Pretty cool. After that- I was then led to dry salt therapy where I sat in a booth, inhaled deeply with my nose and supposedly all these benefits come with doing so. I left feeling pretty good overall and I would choose this multi- diverse spa session over any bougie OK spa session because this actually works your body! read more

This review is long overdue with the amazing experience I had here. The space is tranquil and welcoming, I felt calmer the moment I walked in. The staff are kind and knowledgeable. It was my first time ever at a spa and I'm so happy that I chose the Brain Spa with their touchless services. I learned about neurofeedback here, which has been life changing for my mental health. Thankful for the empowering women who make the space what it is read more

Bay Area Brain Spa - Upper & lower body compression room with BoaMax 2 touchless lymphatic drainage & nuerofeedback (amazing) - Day Spas Near Me - Albany, California

I've been getting Neurofeedback here since Dec 2023. I was suffering from moderately severe chemo brain following my cancer treatments. I had researched and there was suggestions that this technology may help me. I'm so glad I found this place and neurofeedback! I've been doing this consistently since then and I feel it has been instrumental to me getting much of my brain function back. Plus the space is very comfortable and all the staff there are super kind and helpful. I also think their prices are very reasonable for the offer. read more

Angela and Carleigh have been incredibly knowledgeable and helpful in my recovery from chronic illness and stress. I love going here and using the infrared mat (so relaxing), bio charger recipes (also so relaxing) but most of all - regular neurofeedback has changed my brain. I forgot what feeling happy felt like for awhile, and renting this device, twice, over the last year was literally a life saver. The second time it was the most balanced and joyful I've felt in a long time. It works slowly and gently so you have to be patient but it's in my top 3 things that have helped sleep, digestion, and mood. This place is super special. read more

Today presented just one more reason to join the brain spa...their customer appreciation event! At the event we were able to try out virtually EVERY service they had which was amazing - I'll definitely be trying things I would not have tried in the future. The event also featured AMAZING local providers of complimentary services that we might never have come across. What are you waiting for? Although maybe I should be keeping this a secret.. read more

Super relaxing! The salt therapy, PEMF mat and Neurofeedback offer wonderful healing & relaxation opportunities. They have many more modalities I need to try! I've been doing Neurofeedback at Brain Spa since July 2021 and am more focused & less stressed. They offer wonderful products for well-being as well. I highly recommend Brain Spa for better well-being and for more comfort. read more

It was my one & only younger sister's 70th birthday & my daughter suggested that we get a treatment here for her special day, so my daughter treated me & my niece treated my sister. We all four had the 1st time combo special of two procedures - the neurofeedback brain training & the lymphatic drainage massage. Both procedures I benefited immensely & felt immediate comfort of relief & no pains after session. I couldn't believe that I felt light, relaxed, calm from the neurofeedback & my knee & arm/shoulder joints were pain free. It's been about 10 days since I had the treatments. I'm still feeling the benefits. I'm a post-polio survivor & I caught poliomyelitis when I was 9 months old living in Vallejo because my dad worked @ Mare Island. I was born in San Francisco, but caught the virus in Vallejo & was hospitalized in SF for two months. I've worn leg braces all my life & now being retired & permanently disabled from working @ the age of 56, I had to slow down because of the effects of post-polio syndrome after aging. I've gone to chiropractors, acupuncturists, body massages and cranial therapy, but the treatment I had at the Brain Spa was a blessing to me which I felt immediate benefits from especially with other ongoing medical ailments like diabetes, hypertension & high cholesterol. Ugh! I seem to receive a wow factor after my treatment. Hopefully, i will go again in a few months. Thank you for the services there & staff were friendly & helpful! I forgot their names, but I'll post their lovely photo. We forgot to take photos during our treatment. Next time! read more

What to say about Bay Area Brain Spa? I just don't have words for it . As a competitive martial artist from Brazil since the year of 1992.I always looking for a way to cut edge in my athletic performance . In 2007 I won the World's championships of grappling in the same year that I won my mixed martial arts (mma)debut . After been competing for over 23 years in 2016 I was introduced to neuroptimal. At the age of 41 in 2017 I won my first professional jiu-jitsu fight . I kept with the Neuroptimal sessions and they called me out again to fight a pro event in 2018 and I let flow with Neuroptimal as well and the same thing happened with me winning my other match in 2019 . I love Neuroptimal and I recommended to everyone that I meet . My son and my daughter also use the system and we all can tell the big difference in their mental state. Angela is an amazing human that I always call or message asking for more sessions or advice about the program . The new spot that she got it now is unreal. I strongly recommended for anyone suffering of anxiety or mental pressure . It's an amazing feeling when you encounter yourself in the zone . For me in martial arts it's pretty strange sometimes I can predict the opponent next move by a large distance in time . I sleep better I have a much better performance in my Brazilian jiu-jitsu and soccer (yeah I'm a soccer player too). Don't think twice book your appointment with Bay Area Brain Spa and see for yourself the magic happens ! read more

Bay Area Brain Spa - Me In neurofeedback mode - Day Spas Near Me - Albany, California

I am delighted to add my name to the growing list of devoted clients! The lymphatic drainage with neurofeedback session was the perfect introduction. The experience was amazing on so many levels. As it was my birthday, we were fortunate to be able to add a session with the BioCharger. Wow. Brain Spa is special, and aren't we fortunate. I can't wait to return. Thank you Angela M., Carleigh, Angela F. and charming Gabriella! read more

Neurofeedback changed my life completely & I am on zero medication because of this incredible tool. Brain training helped me with focus, confidence, hormonal changes, better sleep and even an eye twitch went away. Before I started these sessions I was having debilitating anxiety and panic attacks. Emotionally, I feel balanced like life is easier now. It's amazing. The ability to rent or buy the equipment and do the brain training at home has been great! It's simple to set up with just a few connections and I love that there is a music program to listen to and you can fall asleep or meditate while relaxing. I've even had my daughters do sessions and the changes are noticeable in mood and sleep. I'm a huge fan of being at the Brain Spa too. It's relaxing, very clean and inviting. I've tried several of the other tools including the Ballancer , the Migun, NanoVi and Red light therapy which all felt really good! I'm a super fan of this business and will be a lifelong supporter! read more

Brain Spa was a euphoric experience. I meditate regularly, but the lymphatic message took me to another level of being relaxed and cared for in my body. Great to do on a regular basis. The infrared treatment enlivened my cells. Such a treat to take care. Thank you for creating a space to pay attention to these details. read more

Highly recommended!First time experiencing the Ultimate Reset- NeurOptimal, NanoVi, Red light, Biomat which left me feeling light and happy. Place is super clean and a very homey feel to it. Very nicely decorated as well with all new machinery that is sanitized. One of the owners was amazingly very uplifting and very informative and they do community events too which is lovely feature during this time. read more

Bay Area Brain Spa - Day Spas Near Me - Albany, California

This was my very first visit at the Bay Area Brain spa and I loved it! The staff was super friendly, professional, helpful, and informative about all of the treatments. I did Neurofeedback in the Compression Massage Pants on sport mode, and Red Light Therapy. The Compression Massage Pants were great for my sore muscles; as an Irish Dancer my legs were feeling tight and sore from practice, but after the treatment they felt really refreshed. Also, following the Neurofeedback I felt calm, refreshed, and more at ease about my upcoming dance completion. The Red Light Therapy also helped my skin and calm breakouts! Overall, I would highly recommend visiting the Bay Area Brain Spa, especially if you are an athlete! The Spa helped me mentally AND physically prepare for my upcoming dance competition and I will definitely be stopping by again soon! read more

I spent my Friday morning at a gem of a place called the Brain Spa. I started my relaxing day with the Ballancer Pro lymphatic massage with a red light facial. Then I did the PEMF mat and Migun acupressure massage which felt AMAZING! It was so relaxing and just what my body needed to rejuvenate. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to recharge the body! I also bought a Joey bar which was delicious (kicking myself for not buying a whole box) and a great smelling candle called Spa Day. I will absolutely be back to the Brain Spa and I can't wait for my next visit. Keep up the great work! read more

I treated my wife for her birthday to a relaxing treatment. We both absolutely loved it. Relaxing and rejuvenating for the brain and body. Not your ordinary spa treatment - uniquely awesome! read more

Had a couple appointments here and plan to go back! Bay Area brain spa is the place to go for reopening your mind and relaxing the body! I personally really enjoyed the massage and felt really ready for work right after. The space is calm and very clean. Also the owners are all very respectful and give you all information needed. Also they really care to make sure you find what you are looking for. Can't wait for my next appointment! Btw did I say it's woman owned? Isn't that awesome! Support your local business read more

We have found the rental neurofeedback systems so helpful for our young family to reduce stress (particularly in our elementary aged children) and restore balance in the house during this pandemic. It was so nice to do neurofeedback in the safety of our home, and at a frequency that fit our schedules (even during school and work!). I have also been into the spa for balancer pro and migun massage. Both were really relaxing treatments, I was the only client in the spa at the time, and Angela was so professional. It all felt very safe... like my own little retreat! Highly recommend! read more

I notice I feel this business is out of integrity with their practices. I purchased an appointment a head of time via their booking services online. When you purchase online you need to read the policies of the spa. I read that if you buy a package there are no refunds and all sales all final. I had only purchased a one time session, so I did not think this applied to me. The wording seems unclear to me. When I noticed that the Neurofeedback wasn't the actual system I was looking for, that I had made a mistake, I canceled the appointment. I wasn't offered a refund so I emailed the office and I haven't heard back from them. I did book too quickly, I take responsibility for that. To have to pay for a service that I did not receive feels terrible. I feel taken advantage of. Almost as if the spa is hoping that mistakes are made in this line. This demonstrates a lack of care to me and allows no space for simple human error. Again, the language used seems unclear in the policies section and it is only emailed to you after purchasing. Please be careful when booking. read more

I absolutely love Bay Area Brain Spa! There's no other place in the area like it. The staff is incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable. Their equipment is top notch and the pricing is totally reasonable. I would go every day if I could. I've even taken my kids to sit in their salt therapy booth. BABS is a gift to the area. I hope more people learn about this incredible spot and get to experience the healing and beneficial services/ therapies they offer. read more

I enjoyed an amazing afternoon treating myself to a lymphatic massage and red light therapy facial at the Brain Spa. The space itself is so relaxing and welcoming. The ladies who helped me where so great to talk to and so informative about all of the treatments they provide. I am a big fan of NeurOptimal and can't wait to come back to visit for more treatments. Oh, and the prices are great too! Thank you Bay Area Brain Spa! read more

My experience at Bay Area Brain Spa couldn't have been more positive. I did a package with neurofeedback, a full body lymphatic drainage massage via the BallancerPro, and a red light facial. Carleigh was supportive and helpful without being overbearing, and I left feeling rejuvenated. The next day, the results were even more apparent. I slept better that night, felt lighter and less bloated, and was just more relaxed overall. I'll be back; thanks Bay Area Brain Spa! read more

I have been going to Bay Area Brain Spa once a week for over six weeks. The Neurofeedback system that I use calms my nerves a lot. I feel more in touch with my thoughts.
