Product:Ultimate Massage

Tucked inside the Huntington Hotel, Nob Hill Spa's Premier Spa Suite provided a relaxing environment and a heavenly pool overlooking San Francisco’s downtown. When I entered the massage room, soft music was already playing and small fire was burning in the fireplace. Before the therapist started, she asked me how I wanted to customize the experience by selecting which massage style, aromatherapy types and extra elements I preferred. Gosh, I had no idea how to narrow down the list -- all of the options had me “ooh”-ing and “ahh”-ing. I chose therapeutic (deep tissue), High Altitude Lavender and a scalp massage. At 110 minutes, it truly lived up to its “Ultimate Massage” name and allowed for a whole 10 minutes to be dedicated to foot massage. The session ended with the best scalp massage I’ve ever had and included oils that left my hair silky for 2 days. The women’s lounge was rather small but I couldn’t complain because I was practically the only customer there since it was about 7 pm. Any treatment allows you full access to Nob Hill Spa services (pool, Jacuzzi, patio, fitness center, yoga studio, steam and saunas – most of which I didn’t have time for because of that thing called “work”). I’ve got to go back to dip in the pool.
