You know that feeling when your face just feels like it can breathe again? That's exactly it. Lisa is AMAZING. She didn't just rush through the service -- she really took her time, explained everything she was doing, and gave me so much helpful skincare advice that actually made sense. I left feeling like I not only got a facial, but a whole skincare education. We actually went for a bachelorette and they went ALL out for us The setup was so beautiful -- they had a charcuterie board, champagne, and the cutest little space that made it feel so special and fun. It honestly made the whole experience feel elevated and memorable. And the spa itself?? So clean, peaceful, and relaxing. The kind of place where you instantly feel calm the second you walk in. No joke... my skin looks so good right now I don't even want to wear makeup for weeks ! If you're thinking about booking -- DO IT. Highly, highly recommend Lisa at Kiwi Spa. You will leave glowing

This is my first review on Yelp, but my visit to Kiwi Spa with the very skilled esthetician, Lysa,…read morewas such a wonderful experience that I felt compelled to share it. I had a jet peel and facial and was not sure what to expect, but Lysa made the experience so refreshing and relaxing. She explained each step clearly and made the treatment feel personalized and unhurried. The jet peel was gentle yet effective. My skin felt clean, hydrated, and had a beautiful glow afterward. I felt, at least, 10 years younger. On that same day, my husband and I went to the show ABBA vs. Queen at Balboa Park with our friends, and I had never received so many compliments as I did that day. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend Lysa to anyone looking to refresh and rejuvenate their skin!

From the start, I was greeted by a young woman at the front desk, Johnny, who was incredibly pleasant, polite, and welcoming. She checked me in smoothly, explained the available add-ons clearly, and made the whole process feel effortless and comfortable. I opted to add the CBD oil to my session, highly recommend! I then met Pete, my masseuse, for a 90 min deep tissue massage. The room was quiet, peaceful, and soothing, with just the right ambiance to unwind. The massage itself was amazing! I was so relaxed I could barely stay awake! Pete's technique was spot on, working out all the knots without being overly aggressive. I checked the clock before and after out of curiosity (I've been shorted 10-15 minutes at other places for undressing/dressing time), and I was surprised to see I got the full 90 minutes! No skimping here! When it ended, Pete offered me water, and the receptionist followed up right away to ask how it went. I told her I was very satisfied and plan to return soon. The business is very clean, the staff is professional from start to finish, and the massage quality is top-notch. If you're looking for a genuine, no-rush experience with skilled therapists and friendly front of house service, this place is highly recommended. I'll definitely be back!

So of course, a massage was non-negotiable during our weekend escape -- and I'm so glad we made it happen. We tried to walk in Saturday around 2P and they were already fully booked for the day. Considering they're open until 9:30P, that told me everything I needed to know. Good sign. So we booked for the next morning. I've had plenty of Thai massages, but this was my bestie's first, so I had to give her the full rundown: stretching, body contortion, elbows, knees, feet -- the whole experience. No surprises over here. We were in the same room, but our massages were slightly different -- which makes sense because we hold stress in different areas. The therapists clearly adjusted their approach based on what our bodies needed. But trust -- we both got the full treatment: elbows, knees, feet, and all the stretches. The kind where you're basically turned into a pretzel... and somehow love every second of it. One thing that stood out for me -- I received cupping, and my bestie didn't. It wasn't something I specifically asked for, so it was a surprise, but definitely a welcome one. Just something to note -- it may be incorporated into your session. And for anyone unfamiliar, cupping is an old eastern method used to help release tension and improve circulation in areas where the body holds stress. I personally love it. At the end of it all, we both walked out feeling relaxed, stretched out, and reset. Would I come back if I'm in the area again? Absolutely.

She knew that my shoulders were knotted and spent a lot of time getting all the knots out. She knows her anatomy and often checked in to see if I was doing okay. She offered some herbal Chinese medicine, I think it is similar to biofreeze. I took the chance and glad I tried it. I feel like a new person.

For the price and going in for a problem area, fantastic!…read more To preface, I'm someone that's very low maintenance/simple. If you are more high maintenance and want all the extras and more expensive spa features this may not be the place for you, but giving that as a warning now so someone with that type of lifestyle doesn't go in thinking it's something it's not. I really feel like I have to leave a review because some of the negative reviews almost discouraged me from going here, but I am SO glad I did. About 2 weeks ago I strained a muscle in my left upper back and another just deep to my L shoulder blade. I have background in PT and work in healthcare so I tried to resolve it myself with no avail. In the field I work in, I am axial loading A LOT, carrying heavy bags, gear, and equipment. This week I told myself I NEEDED to get a massage. I've gotten several over the years as someone with Thoracic (70deg) and lumbar (50deg) severe scoliosis. I got a 90min full body massage today for $90. I had Lucy and she was GREAT! I showed her the areas I was having tightness and she worked that out and more in the first 30 minutes. I was skeptical at first because the first 30 mins of the massage were dry with no lotion, but I think that was intentional to work out the knots that I had throughout my back. For the next 30 mins, she used lotion and primarily continued on my whole back, neck, and upper glute area. Last 30 minutes she covered my limbs front/back and chest area. I am a 5'2, 160 lbs, solid, athletic build female. My masseuse was probably no more than 120lbs but you wouldn't have known it. She used leverage to really get into the areas I had problems with and I left as a satisfied customer feeling much looser in my upper back. Definitely will be back and recommend! Things to consider: *For the price, you're not getting a fancy place. For some the sheet may be too small/not enough coverage. If that's something that is a concern for you I would recommend bringing a sheet of your own along for extra draping and/or asking for an additional sheet. It didn't bother me, but I saw that was a complaint below. *Walls and doors are thin. If you're going there for a muted experience where you only hear the music in the background, not a place for you. (I'm super easy and low maintenance so that wasn't bothersome for me, but I could see how that might bother someone else.) *They do not do an intake/waiver form like other fancier places do. If that's something that will bother you, I think that's a good thing to inform as well. They have an eastern medicine approach (not bothersome to me but maybe to others)
