Massage in Berkeley picked by BestProsInTown
“Good experience with Bella! She has strong hands and knows all the ins and outs of all the little muscles. She even does the “walking on your back” technique. I really enjoyed the massage. Friendly folks at the front desk, too. Clean facility, not too fancy, but good value. I’d go back again.”
“I had an amazing experience with Barbara today. My facial was out of this world and the Eminence products are outstanding! I told myself I wasn’t going to buy anything but how could I not? I bought the hibiscus ultra lift eye cream and the bamboo firming fluid. In hindsight I wish I purchased more but I can do so online. I live in NY and have had many many facials but I would rate this in my top 5! Thank you Barbara.”
“Honestly i was kinda blown away, I came in with a messed up neck from sleeping wrong and felt way better after just one session. The massage part was solid too the therapist found knots i didnt even know existed which was impressive and kinda painful but good painful if you know what I mean. My only small complaint is the booking process online was a bit clunky, took me a few tries to get the right time slot actually. Parking in the back was easier than i expected and the space itself was calm and clean the music is actually nice not that generic spa stuff. Overall really glad I went, will definitely go back its one of those places that makes you wonder why you put it off for so long.”
“I love Kaizen, Dr Katie Bastable is an exceptional body worker that I cannot recommend enough! I started seeing Dr Katie while I was pregnant with my first child, and she helped my hip, pelvis and rib pain immensely. Being able to feel comfortable the last few months of pregnancy was such a relief, and I continue to see Dr Katie after my pregnancy as well. Thank you thank you thank you!”
“went in not really knowing what to expect but honestly it was so good. Dr. Chen actually listened to me describe my back pain and didnt just rush through the appointment. I’ve been to a few places before and this is the first time I felt like someone really understood what I was dealing with. The adjustment was quick but super effective, I felt way looser when I walked out. I’ve already booked my next visit because I actually want to go back, which is saying a lot. The space is clean and chill and the front desk person was friendly too. Found my new spot for sure.”
“Nurse here, body felt broken but Jessie<br>has the hands of an angel. Absolutely best massage I've had in my entire life. Highly recommend.”
“So glad I found this prenatal massage at 38 weeks! I not only extended my session once in progress but booked another for a week later. Thank you, Ursula! ??”
“I’ve had a wonderful experience at Raven & Wren Wellness and really appreciate the holistic, thoughtful approach they bring to care. The clinic has a calming, supportive environment and offers a range of services that feel especially attuned to women’s health.<br><br>I initially came in for acupuncture to help with stress and anxiety, and found the treatments to be grounding and effective. Beyond that, I also did a series of microneedling sessions, which were a great addition and left my skin looking and feeling noticeably improved.<br><br>What stands out most is how the clinic approaches wellness as a whole - not just addressing symptoms, but supporting overall balance, whether that’s physical pain, nervous system regulation, or emotional well-being. I’ve felt genuinely cared for each time I’ve gone, and have come away with both immediate relief and practical tools to support my health in daily life.<br><br>I’d highly recommend Raven & Wren Wellness to anyone looking for support with women’s health, stress, anxiety/depression, pain management, or skin treatments like microneedling.”
“I'm so blessed to have discovered Breathe Health Center! Dr. Mia is filled with wisdom, is intuitive and is truly a master of her craft. My body, mind and spirit feel so much more aligned after our sessions. I've also experienced a Reichian breathwork session with her which powerfully moved stagnant emotions through my system. Liz is an amazing massage therapist and is so in tune - I felt so relaxed and regulated after the massage. The administrative staff are warm and considerate. I couldn't recommend this place more!”
“That has got to be one of the most incredible massages I’ve ever gotten! I didn’t have to tell her anything, she found all the knots on her own and firmly and specifically worked through them. Knots that I haven’t been able to get out in years!”
“Excellent massage, I highly recommend it 100%! I’ll definitely be coming back here.”
“Moonshadow has always been a great salon. We love Katerina! All the stylists are solid.”
“I first started coming here because it was the only place locally that doesn't have any hot yoga and am glad that worked out haha. Ann and Claire are wonderful. I highly recommend Ann for vinyasa and Claire for more mindful, slow meditative work. I do not recommend Suzanne.”
“This is the single most impactful treatment I’ve gotten in a long time. I feel like a completely different person. My entire body feels slimmer, especially my legs, arms, and face. I went through chemo last year, and unbeknownst to me the steroids they gave me for it gave me “moon face”. Thanks to Ida, I have my old face back after just one session. The arm at risk for lymphedema also decreased by 2cm right after the session. I will 100% be returning for more. Thank you so much Ida!!”
“I just had one of the best massages of my life by Lori - strong and firm pressure, but not too much. She is a kind and responsive masseuse, I felt super taken care-of by her. I would highly recommend!”
“Very fine service provided with care and respect. I have been receiving the benefit of John Kokko's talent, knowledge, and skill for over 10 years with much gratitude.”
“My daughter and I visited Nang Sida Thai Massage near UC Berkeley on Sunday, August 2, and we had such an amazing experience that we wanted to share it.<br><br>I have had many massages over the years, both in the United States and in Thailand, and I can honestly say that Pat is one of the best massage therapists I have ever had. She is incredibly skilled, attentive, and truly massages with care and heart. Her pressure was perfect, and she knew exactly where my body needed the most attention. I left feeling completely relaxed, refreshed, and so much better than when I arrived.<br><br>My daughter was treated by Air, and she had exactly the same wonderful experience. She said Air’s technique was excellent, her pressure was just right, and she was professional, caring, and attentive throughout the entire session. My daughter has already said she would love to come back and book with Air again.<br><br>The massage shop itself is spotless, peaceful, quiet, and very welcoming. From the moment we walked in, we felt comfortable and relaxed.<br><br>If you’re looking for an authentic Thai massage in the UC Berkeley area, we highly recommend Pat and Air. They are both incredibly talented and genuinely care about their clients. Thank you for making our visit so special—we will definitely be back!<br>Nari & Corinne”
“Amazing! This was my second time and can’t wait to go back. It’s an intense experience but feels good at the same time. Krishna is super nice & easy to talk to. True professional and gifted at determining best course of action for your needs. I’m getting myofascial from him & it’s helping my knee pain a ton. Highly recommend!”
“Chloe and her whole staff are phenomenal and incredibly skilled at their craft! My skin looks amazing - never going anywhere else. What an oasis - chic, clean, comfortable. Love it!”
“Great experience with Sheila, who guided through the whole process as it was my first time getting a colonics.”
“Matthew is a magician and I highly recommend him. It's amazing to have my pain reduced in such a tangible way. It's not going to be a gentle relaxing massage, but this sports massage will be worth the temporary discomfort to have the underlying issues worked through. He's also really good at distracting me while he's doing all the fixing. All of my gratitude for the work he does. Kind, caring, observant, funny, and honest about what's happening with my body, this business lives up to the name Feeling Better. Thank you for everything.”
“Amazing Bodyworker! Jordanna is a passionate, highly skilled, and intuitive practitioner/artist. She has an ever expanding tool box which includes: the deep presence and neurological reset that Esalan massage is known for, with a side of Osteopathic Manual Therapy and Myofascial techniques, topped off with slow, conscious application of Deep Tissue massage for a full body effect. I can't wait to book another session and experience how the work is enhanced through her awareness of my body's specific needs.<br><br>If you are seeking a loving, professional presence look no further! Jordanna is truly, one in a million.”
“I was just passing through Berkley and emailed them for a same day ‘complete healing’ treatment. They replied quickly and I got in that afternoon. The place is charming, clean, and serious about healing. Monique was lovely and attentive. The treatment was one of the best I have had in a long time. The massage was perfect, intuitive and therapeutic. I felt amazing after I left. You never know what you will find when you are traveling. This place is very special.”
“First and foremost, the massage I received last week was great and at no point in time did the therapist make me feel uncomfortable. That was my first time visiting Berkeley Deep Sports Massage.<br><br>I want to share that I did not feel safe as a woman at this clinic, due to the way it is set up. I was the only customer in the clinic with the male therapist - there was no person at the front desk or any other customers in the clinic at the time. It's located on a section of San Pablo that does not have a lot of regular foot traffic. Perhaps there's a way for the business to group more clients together that would help female clients feel more at ease”
“Oh my gosh this massage was AMAZING! I got a 90min massage and every minute was gold! The massage person was very very professional and I felt very safe and comfortable from the moment I walked in. Definitely coming back!”
