    Quick update Another great visit to this spot My partner really liked this therapist: _ Sufian

    As a holistic wellness professional and a life long student of healing I am so happy to announce that SenSpa is hands down the best spa in the BayArea! Great job to the entire team who makes this space so safe and healing for our mandatory monthly wellness meetings. We love coming here every time we are in the city. Today's therapist was Becka, and was amazing with her intuitive approach in trigger release therapy. Absolutely recommend to add SenSpa to your wellness routine.

    Super Comfortable Chairs.

    I went to SenSpa for the first time on Monday June 16th at 2pm. I was running a bit late, but the staff was very accommodating, professional and polite. The space is very comfortable. I went with Chien-An Tao/Gabriel Tao who is from New Zealand while he was in San Francisco for a conference!

    SenSpa is such a special place to me. The location alone, in the Presidio, is unbeatable, surrounded by natural beauty. After my massages, I love taking a stroll to Tunnel Tops nearby, where a charming café offers great food, drinks, and stunning views. It's the perfect way to extend the relaxation after a treatment. Now, back to SenSpa! The space is beautifully designed, and although parking is on the street, I did suggest dedicated or complimentary garage parking, so guests don't have to think about fees while unwinding. I'm always warmly greeted by the friendly reception staff, and whenever I have time to arrive early, I can settle into the robe and slippers offered in the locker room. If I'm running late, the team is so accommodating, they'll even have my robe and slippers ready in the treatment room, which is a thoughtful touch. Plus, you can linger as long as you like after your treatment to relax. I enjoy celebrating my birthday here, especially with the complimentary glass of prosecco, which feels like such a treat! The facility is impeccably clean, with thoughtfully placed teas, infused water, and snacks. One of my favorite areas is the room with the fireplace and recliners, it's cozy, with journals left by other guests, which are fun to browse. The relaxation room also offers scented oils to try, adding a nice sensory experience. As for the massage therapists, Christine and Theresa are my go-tos, they're incredibly skilled and detail-oriented. Their caring touch is something I truly appreciate. Having been a massage therapist for over 20 years, I can confidently say they provide some of the best massages I've ever had. The massage rooms are dimly lit, with comfortable tables, and they even offer scented oils (lavender is my favorite). The steam room is another bonus, though I can only handle it for a few minutes! SenSpa truly feels like a little slice of heaven in the Presidio. It's refreshingly down-to-earth, and the prices are fair for the experience they provide. I'm a customer for life. Thank you, SenSpa!

    I had a wonderful time at SenSpa! Came in for a couples massage and had such a relaxing time. Since it was our first time there, we were given a tour of the spa and shown all the amenities before our appointment. The locker room was clean and you're given a robe, sandals and space to lock away all your possessions. The couples massage was fantastic and we were in wonderful hands with Mei and Naomi. I had the deep tissue massage and felt all the tension release from my body. I definitely enjoyed the experience and will come back again.

    It's my favorite spa in Sf. Has both steam sauna and dry saunas, wine and beer bar, light therapy in dry sauna, sensory deprivation float tank and of course all the massages. I've had a Swedish massage, deep tissue massage and facial here. It's worth it. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

    This is the table stand. So cute

    I received a gift certificate to this place. I made an appt online. I was completely amazed when I walked in. The outside looks like plain buildings. Once you walk in there's a retail area, a cafe, and a seating area to relax. It was so spacious! I was expecting a nice cozy place. That wasn't it though. You keep walking past that and there's a 2nd relaxing area that's enclosed with glass and with spa music. If you walk further in, there's another relaxing area which is the meditation area. They offer citrus ice water, tea, and snacks (apricots, almonds, chocolate covered almonds). The women's locker room is clean. There's a steam room, bathroom, and showers. They provide shampoo, conditioner, lotion, hairspray, blow dryer, & brush. There's a robe & rubber slippers in every locker. The lockers are password coded. The first time I went, I had a massage and it was great. The rooms are huge, clean, and smell nice. The second time I went I had a craniosacral massage. It wasn't what I thought it would be. The masseuse will put light pressure on an area and just stay there for what seems like 7-10mins. There's no massaging whatsoever. I don't think they should list this as a massage but should be under the category that acupuncture is under. Anyway, expensive lesson to learn. I'll know to schedule an actual massage next time. This place is expensive but you get great service, ambiance, and treatments

The moment I walk in, I feel a sense of relaxation and calmness come over me. From the warm smile greeting you at the front desk, to the simplistic white/marble decor, to the spa-like smells - Dermaplus truly sets the tone for a relaxing afternoon. I get a Signature + Aquadermabrasion facial from Elaine. She is incredibly attentive and skilled! She always manages to get even the toughest extractions on my skin. I also love the massages she gives during the facial session. It completes the experience and makes it feel even more relaxing. Along with regular facials, I have been using Dermaplus' products which are clean and custom blended. I trust Dermaplus' quality and know I am putting top ingredients on my skin. I highly recommend purchasing their products. All in all, Dermaplus is an amazing place to get your facial, and enjoy quality products for your skin. I always leave feeling happy and with a skip in my step with my bag of goodies that I purchased :) Thank you Dermaplus!

Plus, she doesn't have any of that pretentiousness you sometimes get at these places; it's just easy, down-to-earth conversation. She was so sweet during my first treatment and even gave me a little discount, which was an awesome bonus. I will definitely be back!

Dr. Hvistendahl also REFUSED to EXAMINE ME or my BURNS. 4. DR even REFUSED to do a phone-call w me-& I begged INSANE. ILLEGAL. XTRA VITAL FACTS: 1. Linda Behla RN (owner) is named/accused in litigation-court-dox, for causing a patient facial deformity w fillers 2. In CALIF, A Med Spa, is required to have a legit DR as MEDICAL DIRECTOR - A Dr engaged & available . 3. Dr. Hvistendahl is NOT. He is ONLY "named" as MED DIRECTOR, to keep "LIC" but he's offsite & unavailable for MED needs of SpaPATIENTS. 4. Dr. Hvistendahl DOES NOT do any of FOLLOWING: supervise Pt.cases, consult w HV staff, review complex med. cases, onsite upon 911, NOR is he LEGIT as their "onsite Dr" - NO!! VITAL NOTE-1: Dr Hvistendal ACTUALLY stepped in ONLY due to URGENCY when LINDA BEHLA needed FAST REPLACEMENT for her original partner /original Dr, who RN/BEHLA had 1st started her Spa with. NOTE-2: LINDA BEHLA had started HayesValleyMedSpa w a PRIOR DR who "acted" as PRIOR MEDICAL DIRECTOR- BUT that prior DR-& her 1st partner LOST HIS MD LICENSE. It's all public in court filings; & frankly, in same filings, (LINDA at court w him) you can read a complaint re: "RN" (LB) from her patient explaining -'RN permanently deformed face w fillers..' & how there was 'NO help available from 1st Med Dir.' if Linda's to keep MedSpa she urgently had to hire DR as "MED DIR" per CA LAW Bottom Line : @HVSpa, DR. NEVER has acted as legit Med Director. In fact, @HVMSpa- "Med Dir. help" is just not real, & not avail for patients. "Med Director " is their fake placeholder to hold CA LIC. . In CA. tho, these violations are illegal. A MED SPA is required to have a legitimate DR acting on behalf of patient's safety. The DR must be fully accessible & aware of patient cases, files, complexities, staff, training, equipment safety, issues, & certainly a DR who will be ONSITE ASAP wEMERGENCY A Med Director should never prescribe ANY NARCOTICS for 3rd degree burns, or any severe & excruciating injury, without meeting the Pt., examining Pt, speaking to the Pt & understanding all details of Pt. Injury, experience & pain! To fill a strong narcotic for 30 days while refusing to even talk by phone- is bad enough-but to know BURNS are so bad, Pt requires an additional 30d of narcotics (60d) & STILL refuse to examine BURNS or meet Pt, that's clearly 100 % ILLEGAL. If CALIF knew HayesValleyMed Spa fraudulently told patients "Dr Hvistendahl is the Medical Director," - if CALIF understood that patients thought a DR is available - that Spa would be shut down. Yes- in CA its illegal NOT to have a MED DIRECTOR... but it's just as ILLEGAL in CA for a Spa (HVMed Spa) to have Medical Director who is practicing fraudulently. If the accountable DR, through deception, & fraud, is KNOWINGLY causing patient HARM, that's illegal. *knowing infliction As HVISTENDAHL's patient, I had URGENT MEDICAL NEEDs..the MED DIR, that Dr, Dr Hvistendahl, hid! Simultaneously- via Linda, he prescribed - super strong narcotics & the DR continued Rx for months! & They refused to compensate me in any way - CAN YOU IMAGINE? Going for COOL SCUPLT ELITE & ending up in bandages every single day for over a year, disabled under TOP BURN CARE DR in NATION.. & no offer to compensate. They're all so gross. I'm one of multiple patients harmed. SEE MANY PIX!

    Committed to quality results

    I booked an appointment with Roxanne after seeing so many great reviews on Yelp. I have acne-prone…read moreskin and have tried a lot of products and specialists over time. I also follow a maintenance routine prescribed by my dermatologist and usually get facials periodically, so I came in specifically for a facial. Roxanne is a very pleasant woman and looks great, which naturally builds trust. We agreed on a deluxe facial. The experience itself was honestly fantastic. At one point, while I had a mask on and steam over my face, she was also massaging my hands and feet, which made the whole experience deeply relaxing. Physically, it was exactly what I needed. However, there were two important things that didn't sit right with me and are the reason I wouldn't come back. First, regarding the treatment itself: I expected the facial to include extractions, but it ended up being only chemical and ultrasonic cleansing, without manual extractions. This is important for me since I had some closed comedones. Maybe that was just a mismatch in expectations, which I can understand. What affected me much more was the second part. After the 1.5-hour treatment, when I was very relaxed, Roxanne offered me water, stepped out so I could get dressed, and then came back in to discuss "next steps." She asked about my current skincare, and I mentioned dermatologist-prescribed products (Differin and azelaic acid). She responded somewhat dismissively, saying something along the lines of "that's from the pharmacy, right? It's not as good as these..." and then started pulling out products she recommended instead. She then calculated everything on her phone and showed me a total of around $550, including the facial (about $215) and three products, each around $100. She mentioned there was a discount available right now and said there was "no pressure," but it definitely felt like a strong sales push. I'm not someone who makes quick purchasing decisions, especially not impulsively and not at that price point. In the past, I've appreciated when specialists recommend options in different price ranges or explain alternatives with similar active ingredients, so I can make an informed decision based on my budget. That didn't happen here, and the situation felt like aggressive upselling, especially right after such a relaxing treatment. I told her I wasn't planning on that kind of budget and needed time to think, and asked if I could take photos to research the products. She said she would send me links and asked that I purchase through her if I decide to go ahead, since she spent time explaining everything. I left feeling very mixed. Physically, I felt great, but emotionally I felt a bit drained. I understand everyone needs to make a living, but I really don't like aggressive sales tactics, especially during a first visit and when it comes with dismissing what already works for me. I don't have any negative feelings toward Roxanne personally, but I wouldn't choose to repeat this experience.
