Essence Thai Spa By NUNU

My masseuse did an amazing job. She worked so hard on my massage and even did some incredible stretches to reduce tightness. She took her time and care to massage every part, including my face and head. I left feeling so relaxed. I appreciate her so much and highly recommend.

Visiting the area for a couple days and was dealing some intense lower back pain. Wow, did I make the right decision with this place! I did 30 min in the sauna followed by a therapeutic Thai massage. BB understood the assignment. I require a lot if pressure and she delivered. She was mindful to check in often and paid extra attention to my problem areas. She had an intuitive flow and an innate knowledge of anatomy and kinesiology. Little did she know I was formerly a massage therapist so my standards are high. Excellent pin and stretch technique, shiatsu, beautiful effleurage and hot stone work to close out the session. Pain 0, BB1. Thank you for great finish to my SD trip. I’ll definitely be back. If I could her 10 stars I would. ❤️

Patty was AMAZING and so accommodating. I booked same day for a 2-hour massage. It doesn’t look like much on the outside, but trust me, it’s worth it. 10/10 recommend! I’m in town for a conference, but if I’m ever back, I’ll be hitting up Patty.

By far the best massage I have ever had. BB was my masseuse. She checked in with me on pressure, wasn’t chatty, and was exceptionally professional and strong. I will come back here every time I am in SD. Definitely recommend the Thai deep tissue if you suffer from chronic tightness or migraines. Thank you!!

This is the place to go for a liberating relaxing massage. Patty was very patient, attentive, and her skill is unmatched. Left me feeling beyond relaxed and comfortable. Thank you for the exceptional service. Will definitely come back. Highly recommend.

My therapist had magic hands! I was so relaxed by the time she finished she had to wake me up 😆 I just got the foot reflexology, scrub and massage and a scalp massage. They're worth every penny

I feel bad writing this review…but it has to be done. I love spas and it’s a luxury for me and my husband to spend $600 for a "retreat"in a day spa. The massage therapists were VERY nice ladies, and tried hard to be attentive and caring. The massage could have been great in a better environment. I think the massage therapists are gifted. I was concerned with the lack of cleanliness in the building, specifically the room where the sauna and hot tubs were. The sauna should’ve had towels on the floor for sanitation purposes, as well as clean towels on the bench for us to sit on. It seems like the lights should have been turned on full blast and everything torn out of that room and built over. Nothing about this experience was a "retreat" for me. My face was laying in the neck cradle and it smelled/seemed dirty. I kept needing to adjust my face to avoid touching anything with my face. I really didn’t want to breathe in or out which made me tense during the massage. I’m super bummed we spent this much money for this experience. I this felt like if the two therapists were in a better location it could have been so much better. I’m sorry to have to say anything negative. On line booking is difficult to get an accurate picture of what you are walking into.
