welcome tostudio soothe

two rooms. two therapists. an unhurried hour that is entirely yours.

We are a small studio near Golden Gate Park offering skin care, waxing and massage therapy — organic and natural products wherever we can find them, and a session built around the person on the table rather than a script.

an hour that isonly yours

warm rooms, quiet hands, and treatments paced to your breath. two rooms means one guest at a time — nobody is waiting for your table.

“I came in with my shoulders somewhere around my ears and left having forgotten I had a phone.”
a guest, on a 90 minute massage
“It is two rooms and two people who actually remember your skin from last time. Nobody rushes you out.”
a guest, on the signature facial
“The hot towels. The heated table. The fact that they ask what you need instead of reading from a script.”
a guest, on a first visit

before you arrive

covid protocols, service consent forms, and liability waivers — read them here, sign them at home, and keep that time inside your treatment instead of outside it.

First visit? You will be asked to sign the consent form for your service. Fill it in before you come and the whole hour stays yours.
