    Cold Plunge
    Jordan N.

    Meliza, owner, has curated the most beautiful, welcoming, soothing, and relaxing experience. From the moment you walk through the doors, you feel at home. Everyone who works at Worthy are also so wonderful and helpful. Their greetings and smiles are so genuine. And you can feel the care in everything they do to make your experience the best ever. Not only is the ambience amazing, the details from the selection of Republic of Teas and bathroom amenities further demonstrate the care for the overall experience. The high ceilings, natural lights, live plants, and private rooms make you feel like you are both in a private cocoon and also in a natural oasis. And ALL the services are top notch. I have tried every service and love them all. My current favorites are the Red Light Therapy followed by the Infrared Sauna and finished with a Guided Cold Plunge. I cannot say enough great things about the services - each offering me something different. But they all leave me feeling refreshed, invigorated, and glowing! I also think the Guided Cold Plunge is a service that everyone should try. It's hard to put into words, but it's both one of the hardest things I have ever done but also one of the most mentally and physically rewarding. I tell everyone about Worthy because I truly believe we all deserve and need time spent at Worthy! Thank you!

    As a new mom, I am thrilled to have a local spa with childcare available onsite. I signed up for the infrared sauna and guided cold plunge to experience the new spa in town. With baby in tow, there was ample street parking in the morning so we easily parked and found the spa. Lovely to have a real treat on Ashby Ave! It was my first time in an infrared sauna sweating happily. I enjoyed sitting with my thoughts while smelling the sauna and feeling the warmth without getting super hot. The facilities are clean and well-stocked. Definitely use the lavender wipe offered and the loo. The sitting area is lovely inside for your breather between sessions. Turns out I can't get through the cold plunge (it's like a polar plunge) without freaking out and hopping out, and three cheers to my guide for being ok with me taking 1-3 breaths with her before exiting the water in a hurry. I have good memories of the cold plunge at Harbin Hot Springs (which was warm comparatively), and a decent experience running from Finnish sauna to lake in the winter (but now in retrospect I did swim in a hurry because it was so cold), so I was surprised by how my body was not willing to stay under water for a 3-minute cold plunge to experience the health benefits. Being super-warm right before getting into icy-cold water helped a lot (and I really do enjoy a circuit), so perhaps this slow-breathing situation is not my bag. I did buy the 5 credit pack at Worthy so I'll come back and try different things on the menu, perhaps bring a family member or friend to share a sauna!

    Was looking for a place that does Cryotherapy, and happened to run into someone that worked at Worthy Self-Care studio who said she'd help take care of me.. I called the following week and the woman who answered said she could take a message for that person... when I gave the message to pass along, they gave an awkward pause, then said actually that person no longer works there as of just a few days ago... The awkwardness of the interaction was off-putting, so I said I'd call back. Later that day, I received 2 missed calls from this business (+1 (510) 496-1514) - with zero voice messages - and when I called back to see why they called, nobody answered. That was last week. Since then I've received 10 more missed calls!! TEN!! & no voicemails ever!! Like some weird stalker.. & every time I call back (today was within minutes of their missed calls as I work long hours M-Thur & haven't had my phone on me until after business hours), they don't answer. This is super unprofessional and extremely weird behavior.. Why are you all calling me obsessively and even worse not leaving any corresponding voicemails. Literally having to block this business for harassment.

    Worthy is the self-care space I didn't know I needed. Obsessed with this place. From the outside, it's a gorgeous spa-looking like space, but inside it is as beautiful as it is smart. Worthy is filled with the latest technology in science-backed self-care healing modalities, and that is tied to a beautiful hammam-like feel to make the space both healing and relaxing. The owner, Meliza, is so so incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming and you can tell that every part of the space, from the cold plunge to the NuCalm to the red light therapy, has been carefully researched to bring only the best of each technology to people. Between the decor and selection of healing modalities, you can tell Worthy has been created with the utmost care and attention to detail, to give the utmost care to people. They also have a child care space! I personally use a red light mask at home and was curious about red light therapy for the rest of my body especially since I was experiencing some inflammation in my arm that day. It was a quick visit but I felt like my arm improved and we enjoyed some tea in the community space. Would definitely come back!

    Worthy is truly the most special place - a healing haven that has easily become the thing I look forward to every week. I regularly do several of their modalities -- infrared sauna and red light therapy have truly helped me be more balanced and my skin and body have changed with adding these to my wellness routine. I've also tried Cryoskin and ballancerpro lymphatic drainage and starting to see some sculpting results! I also had a transformative experience through their guided cold plunging -- Kaysha is a lovely, supportive, encouraging guide who made my experience perfect. Meliza and the entire staff are so welcoming and knowledgeable, not to mention, location is in a super cute area!

    This place is a magical sanctuary for self care. The space is absolutely beautiful and brings a feeling of peace. I highly recommend trying the sauna + cold plunge - you will feel like a new person afterwards! Kaysha is the sweetest! She guided my cold plunge and my breath work and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The owner, Meliza is amazing and offers so many services. I highly recommend everyone go check out this oasis of self care in Berkeley!

    As a health care practitioner I recognize the importance of taking time for self-care practices. Worthy is an incredible space with an amazing team and I am always recommending them to patients, friends and family alike. I personally love cold-plunging and red-light therapy; these really help me continue to perform at my best both in practice and in work outs. All of their therapies are fantastic for nervous system down-regulation which is so important for healing and adapting to the stressors in our lives. If you're unsure what might work for you don't hesitate to ask the staff - they're so knowledgeable and helpful. Get yourself in and experience the serenity, nurturing, support and community of Worthy! You owe it to yourself!

    Overall my massage was good, the only complaint on the massage was I believe my masseuse had nails…read moreand they were sharp and would at time dig into my skin causing slight plain and discomfort. My biggest gripe is when it can down to pay I owed $120 for two people getting an hour massage and as I was paying and writing the tip I decided $10 for each masseuse would be good since it's slightly above the industry standard of 15%. And let's not forget that a tip is just that, a tip which is optional. I paid them what was due and some. But they were pressuring me saying how they usually get $20 each for an hour massage after I had already written $20 in the tip and $140 for the total. They kept saying how they USUALLY get $20 each for masseuse but they must not understand what the word usually means. It means most the time and that this time they weren't gonna get that and i wasn't going to budge because I couldn't believe they had the nerve, gall, and audacity to tell me how to spend my money especially on an optional portion when I could've gave nothing. Had it not been for my wife offering to cover the extra $20 I would've left them upset. So in the end I had to scratch out the tip and total I wrote so that they could shutup and accept the tip they preferred and requested.It's also very brave and presumptuous to assume I had the extra $20 to spare. And if I paid you're price you can't expect or ask for more tip especially when $20 is 1/3rd of the $60 price point which is a 33.3% tip which I would never imagine giving out. And if I couldn't afford the extra money and I was giving what I could they should be grateful for that. And if I didn't have the tip amount they wanted it's never any business's business to know my personal affairs as that could be rude, traumatizing, and very invasive. All that to say I enjoyed my massage for the most part but won't be returning due to their pushy nature regarding an optional portion of my bill. Please do better!!

    Had a very unsettling massage at this location and would not recommend. The staff doing the massage…read moregot interrupted several times and was constantly in communication with another person throughout my massage. It was very disturbing and not relaxing at all. She seemed to get interrupted to pick up phone calls or let customers in and seemed very distracted. Overall not a good experience.

    I came in for a float and returned a few days later for the sauna, very intentionally focusing on…read morenervous system regulation. Both experiences were exactly what I needed. The float was deeply calming and helped my body fully downshift in a way I didn't realize I needed. The sauna was equally restorative -- grounding, stress-releasing, and incredibly effective. The space is clean, quiet, and thoughtfully designed, which made it easy to actually relax. This isn't wellness for show -- it's a place that truly understands recovery and regulation. I'm planning to get a membership and will definitely be back.

You cannot enter with outside shoes so you can do socks or bearfoot or they provide sandals. I started off by having tea. I was shown my room and all the do 's and don'ts. I love that it is personal rooms. You take a shower before and after. I was nervous at first but ended up falling asleep the ear bud did move so I did get water in my ear and a little in my eye. The salt water is really strong but they do provide water and a towel if this happens. I did sleep really good the next couple of nights. I think I'd have to give them another try. It wouldve been nice for a check in about it after the service but overall great.
