Such a great wellness experience! I'm so glad I found this place! I booked a 60-minute deep tissue massage and had such a relaxing experience from start to finish. Andy did my massage, and he was incredibly talented. He really knew what he was doing and worked out so much tension, but what I appreciated just as much was how respectful and professional he was throughout the entire appointment. I felt completely comfortable and taken care of. After the massage, I was able to spend unlimited time in their wellness space, which has several different rooms with different wellness benefits. It was such a nice way to extend the experience instead of feeling like you have to leave as soon as your massage is over. They're also opening hot tub and cold plunge rooms in September, which I'm already excited to come back for! The location is super convenient, right where Mission Hills meets Hillcrest, and probably one of my favorite parts - there's parking! I'll definitely be back. Such a great addition to the San Diego wellness scene! read more

I visited Karma this past Monday with a friend after stumbling across it on TikTok, and I'm so glad I did! It looked like such a cool, unique place, and it was only a few minutes from my apartment. I loved it so much that I brought a friend back today for another massage, and he was very impressed by how great his massage was. Parking is street parking, so it can be a little tough to find a spot. However, there is a paid parking lot directly across from the spa, which is a convenient option. We each booked a 60-minute deep tissue massage. One thing I really loved is that after your service, you can pay an additional $50 per person to enjoy all of the amenities. If you don't book a service, the day pass is $100. From the moment you arrive, the experience feels different. They take your shoes and give you slippers to wear throughout the spa. They also give you a top and shorts to put on. You have a key to a locker that you wear on your wrist. It's super convenient where you just tap it against the lock. There's a heated wooden floor and a cozy lounge area upstairs, and they serve what might be the best tea I've ever had. I definitely lost count of how many cups I drank! The massages are downstairs, while all of the amenities and different wellness rooms are upstairs. Since it was our first visit, we did the "first-time focus" wellness journey, which allowed us to experience each room. They have two different formats for the curated wellness journey, one for visual learners and one that is written. I thought this was such a cool concept. It even tells you how long you should spend in each room, and each room has information explaining the physical, mental, and emotional benefits. There's also a guided wellness experience you can participate in. *Forest Room: This room is adorable. You choose a stone that you feel drawn to, and it guides you through focusing on an intention. *Cold Room: Unfortunately, this room wasn't as cold as it should have been. We were told it should drop to around 60°, but we arrived around 11 AM and by 1 PM it was still around 68°. The room itself is super cute and has a cloud-like atmosphere though. *Himalayan Salt Room: This was probably one of my favorites because it really helped my sinuses. There's also a massage chair where you can relax while enjoying the room. *Red Light Room: They provide protective glasses for your eyes, and there's a bin where you place them afterward so they can be cleaned and reused. There are also Mugwort and Mud Rooms, and I loved that the rooms have hourglasses with different time increments. It's such a simple detail, but it encourages you to put your phone away, stop checking the time, and actually be present. There's also a snack area stocked with individual packets of Asian snacks, Chex Mix, nuts, and lemon water. The dressing room area is also really nice. They have showers with multiple showerheads, which made for a very relaxing shower after the spa experience. They provide body wash, shampoo, and conditioner along with toothbrushes, blow dryers, deodorant, and pretty much everything you need to get ready afterward. Another really unique feature is the intention wall. You can write something you want to manifest and post it on the wall. At the end of the month, they take the intentions down and hold a little ceremony of sorts to help manifest them. I thought that was such a beautiful touch. And the deep tissue massage was absolutely phenomenal. My therapist used great pressure and really focused on pressure points, leaving me feeling incredibly relaxed afterward. Overall, Karma was an incredible experience and such a perfect reset. From the thoughtful wellness journey and unique rooms to the amazing massage, tea, snacks, and relaxing atmosphere. There are so many little details that make this place special. read more

They have different wellness rooms and tips on how to use them for your needs. I was able to use each one, I think my favorites were the Himalayan salt room, the red light room, and the cold room.

LOVE how relaxed, cared for and rejuvenated I was after coming here! Karma is so purposeful with their space. If you want to reconnect with yourself, recover, or just reset, they have you taken care of. I love that there were so many ways for me to be mindful - journals, sand timers so I didn't have to look at my phone, and questions to help me reflect. Can't wait to come back! read more

I've been going to karma wellness for a while now and would definitely recommend the Swedish and lymphatic massages. My friend and I just tried the wellness rooms for the first time and loved it. The owner let us try out the new steam room cold plunge, and jacuzzis which was a lovely experience. We then enjoyed all the rooms in the upstairs wellness center. I recommend this spa to all my friends great service and lovely amenities! read more

I scheduled 2 massages on my girlfriends birthday last Wednesday , I was well aware there were renovations being done prior but to hear hammering and drilling your entire massage was not relaxing at all. The girl at the counter offered 10% off one massage which was nice of her but it still didn't feel as if it made up for it. When you pay for a service I feel something like that should not be done during peoples massages. We both felt that was a bit inconsiderate.It was very loud the whole time through. I will say the above amenities we paid additional for were worth it. I loved each room. read more

This place is definitely not worth the price the lotion used on my body gave me a neck rash the therapist focused on more of my neck instead of my body I didn't feel like she had enough experience to be a massage therapist. The service for me was very disappointing . The receptionist I thought they felt like I needed to leave a tip not I brought my daughter for her birthday and thought it would be a great idea for me to join her. She had a good experience I'm thankful for that otherwise it would've have been all bad! I can chalk up my loss but not 2. Do your homework when it comes to getting the right massage therapist to get the job done. It was a waste of money for I'll never go back to this place of business!!! NEVER! read more

They cancelled my couples massage due to incompetency. They then still charged $100 for spa amenities. It would be nice to see better organization, as I really looked forward to the experience. Make America Organized Again. read more

I don't know why this place has such bad reviews. Yes it's under construction but it is coming along! I had a beautiful experience. It felt like I had the whole place to myself. I am nervous to share because I don't want it to get busy, but I won't gate keep(; I did the one hour $50 rooms (mugwort, clay, Himalayan salt, forest) it was wonderful. I cannot wait to see what this place looks like when it's done. The owner Jing is so kind and truly cares about health and healing read more

I've only been to Karma once, but I loved the experience. I had walked by for years and was always curious what it was like inside. I saw a few videos online, I finally booked my first massage--and now I find myself thinking about it all the time. I'll definitely be back soon. The experience exceeded my expectations. The massage struck a perfect balance between addressing physical tension and helping me completely relax, and the staff seemed to know exactly what I needed. I left feeling refreshed and genuinely reminded to take better care of myself. They also offer a wide variety of other wellness services and experiences beyond what I tried, and I'm excited to explore more of them on my next visit. Thank you! read more

Celebrated my husband's birthday here with a couples massage. The office manager, Kathy took our reservations over the phone and asked what type of pressure we'd like: soft, medium, or hard? Hard pressure is what we requested.. ;) The meassuese exceeded our expectations and had been one of the greatest massages here. 10/10 read more

Second time visiting Karma Spa in Hillcrest area. The first time was a bad experience because the foot massage was done in the front hallway and could hear every little thing with people walking and talking throughout the session. We decided to give it another try because they have a sauna so we scheduled a couples VP package which included a 60 mins body massage, 15 min sauna, and 15 mins foot detox. What we like is the parking lot next to the place, a little tight but it's free or nearby. The place is clean, the massage sheets seemed fresh, the restroom smelled nice and was clean. It's also decorated nicely. The massage was nice but wasn't over the top nice. The sauna was a dry sauna but had the option to pour water on hot rocks to get it steamy. The foot detox experience was done in a back room that looked like the vanity room. My husband said his water was very hot to the point that he wanted to lift his feet and had a lasting tingly sensation afterwards. My water was lukewarm. Why the two stars- the massage was first, then sauna and had to put our clothes on after being so sweaty and they didn't have a shower offered, felt rushed between each service, and at the end told them I had to use the restroom and the lady looked disappointed trying to rush us out of there. And as another reviewer mentioned, each service ended a few mins earlier than their time. Then when paying, the front desk guy said it was a $5 discount for cash when paying as a couple but when scheduled over the phone with the office manager, she confirmed $190 but was ultimately charged $195. Oh well. I would say bring cash to get a $5 discount because there's a 3% fee when paying with card. Not sure if we'll be back due to both of these experiences we had. read more

I love this newly renovated spa. It's such a relaxing, fully equipped healing haven and my number-one place to go whenever I'm feeling stressed. The team is incredibly welcoming, friendly, and supportive. With so many activity options and the sense of community they're creating, it feels like much more than just a business to me -- it's a place where I could truly belong. read more

Karma Wellness - Healing room! My mom is also wearing one of the robes they sell. Love it on her! - Skin Care Near Me - San Diego, California

I had a very pleasant experience overall. The receptionist was warm and welcoming, which set a positive tone from the moment I arrived. My massage was with Emily, and she truly has healing hands. She was extremely comforting, applied just the right amount of pressure, and checked in with me throughout the session to ensure I was comfortable. I highly recommend her and will definitely be returning for another massage. The location is also very convenient, with a parking lot right next to the building and plenty of street parking available. After the massage, I genuinely felt like a new person--completely refreshed, and the tension in my neck had completely disappeared. That said, there were a few areas that could be improved. It appeared that construction was ongoing, and the waiting area felt dimly lit and not very inviting. For a spa where people come to relax and rejuvenate, the ambiance could be better. There was also a group of ladies having a loud business-related discussion, which took away from the calming atmosphere. Additionally, some small touches like offering tea or refreshments upon arrival would elevate the overall experience. While it's not a luxury spa, if you're primarily looking for an excellent massage, this place delivers. I will definitely be back, and I'm considering booking a couples massage next time. read more

I had a 60 min lymphatic massage with Lisa and would be happy to go back. She addressed the areas that needed attention and was attentive to my needs. The place was clean and relaxing overall. However, the experience was ended by the receptionist, who immediately asked for tips and proof of payment via Venmo after the session. I'm totally fine with leaving a tip, but asking for a specific amount and proof of payment felt unprofessional. I got the booking through class pass, costed me 47 credits. I learned it costs $120 for such message . read more

Went down to spend to day in san diego and saw this place with great reviews , so I booked a 2 couples massage and added aromatherapy extra at 4 pm. Place is under reconstruction which wasn't a big deal but after the massage after I got dressed , the therapists were waiting outside the door with cups of water which was nice. So I tipped EACH lady $20 tip and then one of ladies gave me attitude and said that's it and that was a 2 hour massage should be more . I've done many high end spas and that's the norm for a fair tip. So I gave them another $20 each bc they made feel awkward and embarrassed. So it ended up being $40 tip each on top of the $340 fee for massages and never got the aromatherapyby the way. . Unfortunately for you guys , I have 550k+ followers on my Instagram accounts and will be doing a post review about my experience there. That's now how business should make you feel So good luck in the future !! IG: @salloum.danny read more

It's my first time coming to this massage parlor. I was already in love with their simple decors. Kathy greeted me and helped me setup my appointment. She is the sweetest, she was very helpful on booking the correct massage for me. I did a deep tissue with hot stone. Jennifer was my masseuse, she was very attentive and caring during the whole processed. She checked up on me and made sure the hot stone wasn't burning me. I would highly book her again the next time. Make sure you don't drink caffeine before the appointment, you want to be relax and not tense. read more

I've been coming off & on for some years. Always say I will come regularly...buuut life so I returned 3/25/23 for a birthday treat. Got the "Premiere package" which if you can, I definitely recommend. The treatment is royal. I had Gina & she took care of me the whole time. The business is going through some much needed upgrades. So there's construction but didn't interfere with my visit. My only issue which I believe is going to be addressed is the carpet. If you have ever been in an old run down hotel/motel with spots & old, then that is what I am speaking of. But the service doesn't lack. Professional & atmosphere is relaxing . I always feel great On day 2 3/26/23 had my 1st facial with Michelle. Check in with front desk & she comes from upstairs & takes you up to her place. And my 1st time experience was nice although I had no prior to compare it to. However, she was Professional & made me comfortable only wish she explained the steps she was doing being new to this would have been an added touch to the service. Other than that I can say I would try her again. Looking forward to the upgrades. read more

I have been here several times. They recently opened upstairs which makes this spa extra special and fantastic! So beautiful and relaxing.

Harassing. The scheduling system is fail. You can schedule online, however, even with an account you cannot cancel or modify. So you have to call the receptionist old school. The receptionist then gets it wrong, and does not cancel or modify, meaning, fails at their job. So then, TNEY CALL YOU to correct the employee's inability to perform their basic function. Gotta pay off that small business loan for their expansion, so tney hound and harass. read more
