The HydraFacial itself was incredibly relaxing. I felt pampered at every step and my skin is clean and glowing. I will definitely be back to try some of the other treatments.

I have always been extra sensitive when it came to physical touch. I could never get a massage because I was too ticklish and the feeling of knots on my body made me cringe! A few years ago,  I booked a massage with @skinbybrittany__ . She knew my situation and let me know that if at any point I started to feel uncomfortable,  we could stop.   She was the most gentle and most professional massage therapist I have ever encountered!   She literally took away my fear of massages (crazy enough, it really was a fear of mine). My body is thanking me right now, after my AMAZING massage with Brittany today.   I'm telling you... book your appointment with her now!  You won't regret it!   She's also responsible for my amazing skin!  She gives the best facials and I am loving my new skin care routine!

From day one, she's had an amazing rapport -- she's welcoming, knowledgeable, and truly listens to your concerns instead of pushing unnecessary treatments. She takes the time to explain what she's doing and why, which makes every visit feel personalized and thoughtful. You can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and their results, not just the appointment. I also love the products she carries -- high quality, effective, and perfectly suited to what she recommends in treatments. My skin has improved so much over the years because of her guidance and consistency. If you're looking for an esthetician who is skilled, trustworthy, and builds real relationships with her clients, she's the one. I recommend her without hesitation.

I was a little anxious walking into my appointment, but all of that melted away as soon as I was greeted by an incredibly kind concierge. She was warm, attentive, and welcoming, and I felt comfortable from the moment I walked in. The environment was relaxing, clean, and inviting. I didn't have to wait for my appointment and was escorted to a private room, where I met with a very kind physician assistant. She simply asked me what had brought me in. As I explained my concerns, she asked thoughtful follow-up questions about how I was feeling, what I was concerned about, and what I hoped to achieve, rather than trying to just sell me some "magic solution". She walked me through all of my options and provided a lot of helpful information that made me feel confident in my decisions. I had mentally prepared myself for a sales pitch, but it never came. Instead, she listened carefully, explained how she could help, and let me decide what would best fit my goals and lifestyle. I left feeling relieved, informed, and genuinely excited for my next appointment. Most importantly, I felt heard.

I've had filler once, Botox once, and two RF microneedling sessions and it's like the technicians are OCD. Three full passes, every patch of skin is covered, and the results are the best I've had. They give you time to numb, and they do a great job distracting you from the discomfort if you do decide to go for a more intense setting. Also, really helpful with the GLP, clear labeling on each syringe, and easy FaceTime with the doctor. I've never had to wait past an appointment time and there's always parking. Really grateful I found this spot. Note: Sheila did the rf microneedling if you end up scheduling that service. I normally have some white spots but after the service with her my entire face is covered and it shows in the results.

Coming from a healthcare setting myself, I am big on treating patients as people and not a box one has to check. Suffice to say, introduce yourself. I had to ask her "Who are you? Because you never introduced yourself." I believe that is basic etiquette. Second, I was quick to notice the lack of patience with which my call was handled hours after my visit, the one where I had a chemical peel. (There was a whole lot of information to remember before the visit and they don't all sink in until you're done and you get the kit.) Otherwise I had a pleasant experience getting my first peel with Sheila/Shiela. I'm now on my 4th day post-procedure and looking forward to the results. I also want to acknowledge the wonderful experience I had weeks before that with Joy, who did my Dermplaning Facial, although I wish I had known sooner that if I did both at the same time, I could've saved a lot more.

The saunas are extremely therapeutic and I feel like an entirely new person every time I leave this place. Not wet, not dry - but a happy medium and the clear steam produced feels like it penetrates every layer of your body. The Aveda products are a great touch compared to years past. Lots of lovely merchandise and cosmetics for sale as well. This place has come a long way since I worked here in the early 2000s - It was great then and even better now! I haven't tried the renovated hot tubs yet but they look beautiful and the tranquil vibes of the past still seem to be present even with the new, more modern design. Massage therapists I've experienced here have always been professional, skilled and intuitive. Highly recommend Regina! All in all - Albany Sauna is a true hidden gem and a staple landmark in Albany, CA. I wish them continued success and pray they're around for decades more!

Not to mention the comments I have been receiving about glowing skin (and I know it's not just the pregnancy)! Twice in the past 13 years I had facials by other people and both times I was disappointed. Once you give Diane a try, you will never want to go anywhere else.

The location is small but very nice inside. They have a lot of beauty products to test out that are available for purchase as well! My only complaint was the parking. I came on a Saturday afternoon and it took me about 20 mins to find a spot. I still had to walk five mins from a neighborhood to the spa. I would advise you to arrive as early as possible (I showed up 15 mins early) if you plan to come on a nice day during the weekend! I definitely want to check out their facial services.
