Siam Orchid Traditional Thai Massage — Attraction in San Francisco

I'm a doctorate student and physical stress is my first, middle, and last name. My muscles get so tight that it literally makes me sick. Recently, my lower back was getting so tight that I almost couldn't walk. I finally went in for a massage at Siam Orchid after finding the place online months ago, and all I can say is: GO! Before this, there was only one masseuse I had ever liked. Everyone else applies grandma pressure when you ask for seep tissue. But not here!! I went in for a 90 minute deep tissue massage and I was amazed the entire time. My lady started off by applying pressure to my legs and back with her own feet (in some of the business's pictures, you'll see straps hanging from the roof--that's what they hold on to). This leverage allowed her to perfectly target the spots in my lower back that were making it difficult to walk. I could've done an entire massage of just that. At other points, she must've massaged trigger points because I would, say, feel a good tingle going down the length of my arm (and knew that it was from pressure release). Lastly, my lady knew intuitively what my body needed. Right before she turned me over to the front side, she was finishing up the second (right) side of my body. As she was finishing the second side, the left foot was feeling jealous, like it needed one more like massage. Once she was done with the right side, she went back to the left foot really quickly! There were many times where I said a relieved and grateful, "Thank you" in my head.

I can't emphasize enough how much I recommend this place! A deep tissue massage is truly deep tissue, and it's so much more than that. Go, go, go! Your body...

I don’t review places often but I need to share this! Tdlr; my massage helped rid my pain and I highly suggest visiting them!

I work a very physical job as a nanny. Last week I wore new shoes that after walking several miles triggered my sciatica. I was in so much pain in my lower back down through my leg starting on Wednesday; I tried creams, heat therapy, a chiropractor adjustment, stretching, cbd, resting… and the pain was still a 8/10 on Sunday morning. I scheduled a massage at Siam— I usually go to another Thai massage place but they didn’t have any appointments available + the Polk Siam location is convenient for me. I got a phone call shortly after booking online with a suggestion for a different massage than the one I booked that would better suit my needs. My masseuse was Tara and I cannot thank her enough. She was so kind and attentive throughout the whole massage, knowing exactly what spots my body needed the most work and checking in with how I was feeling. I’m a plus-size person and am also sensitive to feeling peoples judgment, which feels awful in a vulnerable situation like someone touching your body. In addition to being a great masseuse, I could feel Tara’s kindness and lack of judgment. This means more than I can say. By the time my massage was over, I honestly felt my pain had decreased significantly. Today at work I was able to lift the kid I nanny (I couldn’t last Thursday and Friday), and felt fine walking all day. At the time of writing this (9pm), I feel like my pain is about 95% gone. I feel this is due to the massage and I am so grateful. Thank you...
