I look forward to coming here, and the spa itself is well worth a visit, even without booking a…read moretreatment, in my opinion. I've been here about four times and find the spa to be a peaceful and relaxing getaway. My favorite parts of the spa are the dry saunas: both the jjimjilbang and the dry sauna in the women-only area. The jade and stone rooms have a nice scent of cedarwood, and when I have visited during the weekday, they're usually completely empty. I like to cool off in the rest area, where they provide mats and pillows, where I lie down and read for a bit before going back into one of the heated rooms. The women's spa has the typical amenities: dry sauna, wet sauna, cold pool and hot tub. Sometimes it can be a bit noisy (loud conversations) when there are women who don't know the proper etiquette, but once they get called back for their body scrub service, it gets quiet and peaceful again. :) When I come in the mid-morning on a weekday, at most there are a few other people, but other times I've had the entire space to myself (happened today). I especially enjoy the cold pool after using either of the saunas or the hot tub. If you purchase spa admission in bulk, it adds up to $35 a session ($350 for 10 "day passes"), which is well worth it, in my opinion. Day admissions includes the provision of a spa uniform (a robe for women), a small towel and a large towel, use of the lockers and access to all amenities (jjimjilbang, women-only saunas + pools). They provide spa shoes for free (upon request). The shampoo/conditioner/soap provided in the showers is decent! I like using the stool + basin to take a seated shower. Overall, the locker room and spa area are kept pretty clean. In the women's locker room they just got a new water cooler. I usually spend about three hours here. General advice: Come prepared to pay in cash unless you are willing to pay a credit card surcharge. Drawbacks: I think there could be improvements to some of the facilities, but nothing is a "dealbreaker" to me. Both of the women's pools could use some interior resurfacing, the himalayan sea salt room (jjimjilbang) doesn't seem to get as hot as it should in order for there to be a therapeutic benefit, the provided towels could be replaced (they're getting a bit raggedy), some of the hair dryers in the locker room need replacing. I've gotten the spa package of a body scrub, massage, mini-facial and hair wash but to be honest, it wasn't my cup of tea (during the body scrub it felt like they exfoliated parts of my body I didn't even know existed!). I'm planning to try a facial one day and hear they are great. I definitely recommend coming here as a way to decompress and treat yourself to some relaxation. :)

I usually get the #5, and sitting in the sauna and hot tub afterward is sooo relaxing. But the #1 is definitely worth it too! This is the kind of place where you can actually spend some time, unwind, and leave feeling refreshed from head to toe. One of my favorite little gems is that I also come here just to get my hair washed. Sometimes I don't want to go through the whole salon experience and sit bent back over a shampoo bowl -- I just want my scalp and hair thoroughly washed and to RELAX. I've been here enough times that it's genuinely become one of my go-to self-care spots.

I'm a pretty picky when it comes to massages, but this is my FAVORITE massage place ever…read more I used to live aboard and I have gotten massages in Vietnam, China, Thailand, The Philippines and I would say this is by far the BEST. They use good technique and the pressure is deep just how I like it. I have gotten the chance to get massages from all of them and I would say all the ladies technique and pressure are good. I am pretty spontaneous and would book last minute and they are very accommodating ! I usually request Elaine but after getting a massage from Hai Ying, I was blown away. I had this neck pain for a really long time... I got multiple rounds of acupuncture for at least 6 months to a year and it never got better. Each time I move my head left or right, it was super painful. After one message with Hai Ying, the pain was gone. I work from home so I gotten alot of knots and I believe some of the knots on my knees or somewhere was pulling on my muscles and causing pain my neck and shoulders. Honestly, I was super surprised I no longer had neck pain after my massage with her. After that, I been going ever since and would invite my friends whenever I could. I recently moved to LA but I do have family in the Bay Area so whenever I come back, I ALWAYS make sure to book a session with Hai Ying. Her techniques are also unique and I LOVE how she customized the massage based on the knots and my request. I appreciate how she doesn't follow a basic routine but would adapt based on the customers needs. Overall, my experience has been amazing and I would recommend them to anyone who has pain or need to untangle stubborn knots.

I have been visiting Health Day Spa usually once a week for about five years…read more My go to person lately is Susan. She provides exactly the massage I request. Swedish massage, medium, not too hard. Most massage spas offer soft, medium, or hard pressures. I prefer soft to medium. That's exactly what I ask with Susan and that is what I receive. If you want a hard deep tissue massage, I'd recommend Carmen. She's very experienced and knows exactly where your pain or discomfort is, and believe me, she will definitely get your pain out. Depending on your pain, depends on how much pressure Carmen will put on you. Two different times, Jenny (the owner) performed Thai massages on me. She does not offer that massage. She only performed Thai massage because I have been going there for years. Omg, that was so painful. However, when I walked out, my body was like jello. At that time, I didn't live far away. I was able to drive home and fell right to sleep, waking up totally refreshed. Today, Susan worked on me. I always get a 90 minute massage, which costs $98, plus I give 25 to $30 tip. That's just me. My tip is giving extra thanks. Today, though, I caught myself snoring twice. I love Health Day Spa. It's dark, always quiet unless a guest is talking loud. There's soft relaxing music playing. As I have mentioned before, everyone that works there does not speak English well. I suggest you speak slowly and clearly, or use your Google translator, as I do. Jenny, Bill, and maybe a couple other employees will understand English. I have also mentioned, if you want a happy ending, go somewhere else. Health Day Spa is 100% legit, with trained massage therapists.

Came here on a Friday with a 3pm appointment time, came with a friend so we could do our…read moreappointments at the same time (different rooms). I got the signature scalp treatment (1 hr ish) with Lisa, and my friend had someone else. Just an FYI - if you want to book an appointment at the same time with someone else, it's easier if you call them to make an appointment because if you book online, there's only back to back appointment slots. Price was $120-130 ish after tax, and you pay 50% up front and 50% at the appointment. When we got there, we took a quick hair survey and then got our treatments. This is different from those Asian scalp treatment places where they use a camera to show you your oily roots and blowdry your hair afterwards - so don't come in expecting that. Pros: - The establishment was very communicative when it came to appointment booking. I had a last minute emergency and had to move our appointment from a morning slot -and they were super kind and easy about this. - Lisa was super nice and professional! Talked me through what she was doing and I was so relaxed I think I even fell asleep for a little bit - The room had really relaxing lighting and music - Very easy parking. The outside can be very unassuming but google maps is accurate - My hair was so soft and nice afterwards and smelled so good - They gave me a free black matte hair clip afterwards, one of the nice ones - Fantastic scalp massage - Overall everything was super thoughtful and super clean Cons: - The only thing I can think of is to have a website that lets you book dual appointments at the same time, but overall not a huge deal. - I do kind of wish they would include hair drying as part of it, but I think that would make the appointment longer so I do understand why it's not included. But good to know if you're planning on going somewhere afterwards Overall, I LOVE that San Leandro has one of these places now (because I dislike driving to Dublin, the peninsula, or Livermore), this is so accessible I know I'll be coming back.

I decided to make a same-day appointment for a deep tissue massage on a Monday and it was easy to make an appointment online. One thing that I appreciated was that the person at the front desk called me ahead of my appointment and asked what kind of pressure I liked as it was my first time visiting. She said she wanted to ensure that I was matched with a staff member who would best fit my preferences to ensure I had a good experience. I don't think I've had that done before the actual appointment at any other place so that was thoughtful. They even offered to take me in earlier if I was available. Once I walked in, I could tell it would be relaxing as the environment was very quiet and peaceful. As soon as I was out in a room and ready for the massage, the staff made sure I was comfortable and asked if I had any areas I wanted them to focus on, to which I answered my lower back. I liked that they even checked in once they started applying more pressure to make sure it was okay. Overall, I was very satisfied with the experience and as someone who sometimes tenses up during massages because it's too much, was able to a actually relax during my appointment and even dosed off a little. Even afterwards, my body feels great and the lower back pain has definitely improved! Overall, I would recommend coming here and would definitely come back to try their other packages.

They ask what areas you'd like more focus on and which areas are off limits, as well as the amount of pressure you'd like for your massage. I loved that they had a pregnancy pillow on top of their massage table; such a nice added touch to ensure optimal comfort. I loved my massage here and will be back for more!

My sister and I had a 10:00 a.m. appointment yesterday, and from the moment we arrived, we were welcomed and seated right away. We were taken into a relaxing room with comfortable massage chairs that recline, where we started by soaking our feet in warm water. The atmosphere was peaceful, with soothing music playing in the background, making it easy to relax immediately. Even though my sister was right next to me, the setup still felt surprisingly private, and I was able to completely unwind. While our feet soaked, they started with a head, shoulder and arm massage. After the foot massage they had my turn on my stomach and massaged my back. I had several knots around my shoulder blades, and my therapist did an amazing job working them out. He adjusted pressure when asked and was just awesome! I left feeling so much better than when I arrived. The prices are incredible for the quality of service. My one-hour foot massage was only $45, and a one-hour full-body massage is just $60, which I will definitely be trying next time. The entire experience was relaxing, professional, and affordable. I highly recommend Healthy Foot Spa and will absolutely be back!

Throughout the full two hours the woman kept looking at her phone and the massage itself was ineffective. She spent a lot of time working on only one hand and at times her nails were poking which was uncomfortable and repeatedly pulled me out of the experience. At one point, I even had to speak up and told her: Why don't you finish texting first, then resume my massage?" She responded that she was texting customers.This was the entire two hours. Honestly, it felt like a waste of money. I came for a relaxing massage and instead had to endure poor service while the therapist was constantly distracted. This should not be acceptable at any spa. If you want a real massage experience, I do NOT recommend this location.

That really stressed my mother. We were under the impression that it was, but in hindsight, I don't think was specifically asked. The massage lady (can't remember her name) did say she would be happy to help my mother in, but the massage lady was 15 minutes late. I wasn't going to go in with my mother, but since it started out a bit confusing, I did. The massage lady is probably experienced, but elderly disabled people seems to annoy her. I could see that my mother was getting more and more stressed, so we left in 15 minutes. The massage lady charged us full price. We understand that we had booked for an hour and that if we hadn't, someone else could have filled that slot. It's hard to find people who are good working on older people. This one really works only on younger people - it's not therapeutic ---- she's more of a recreational day spa type.
