Whispering Day Spa — Local services in San Diego

This review is long overdue, but I'm happy I've had a chance to experience the consistency of quality with respect to the massages and the spa as a whole. Quick disclaimer, I'm a massage frequent flyer. I usually get one once a month at various locations and different massage therapists, prior to relocating to San Diego earlier this year.

I originally visited this spa with my partner as part of a birthday gift. We got a couples massage then she spent the day there for an extensive spa package. We both enjoyed our massages, but she RAVED about how hers was the best massage she'd ever received so naturally I was curious. Now, my massage was also exceptional and I feel confident that all of their therapists are well-trained and attentive like ours were. Sometimes it's just a matter of preference when it comes to massage style.

The next time I went for a solo massage I asked for her therapist, Scott V. And yes, 100%, the best massage I've ever experienced and here's why:

Safety: As a woman I'm naturally sensitive to any weird vibes or inappropriateness during massages, especially when the therapist is a man. You're in a vulnerable position and it's important to feel comfortable in that setting. Scott is very careful and thoughtful about where and how he massages and I can honestly say I've never felt an inkling of creepiness from him.

The Massage: Masterful. He applies the perfect amount of pressure while checking in periodically (but not an annoying amount) to make sure I'm comfortable. He double checks the areas I'd like him to focus on and truly takes his time working out all the kinks. I've recently started my fitness journey and often feel sore from working out and he fixes me up every time. I like that he incorporates light stretching, after confirming I'm cool with it, for some of my more problematic areas. I'm not a flexible girlie, so I do mean light stretching, but it's helped relieve so much tension in my lower back and hips. After I told him how much the stretching helped, he proactively went and learned new ones to incorporate. How thoughtful.

Personality: Scott has a warm, positive and kind disposition. He always greets me with smile and seems to genuinely enjoy his job. That's not always the case so it's refreshing to consistently experience.

As for the spa, all the staff I've interacted with over the past few months have been pleasant and helpful. The space is clean and relaxing. I also feel like their services are reasonably priced. The only thing to be conscious of is parking - it's not terrible, but likely will take you 5-10 min to find a spot and walk to the spa.

Obviously...

Beautiful experience! I visited the Whispering Day Spa yesterday. This was a lovely birthday surprise from my sister. I absolutely enjoyed the relaxing experience. Ronald is the massage therapist who's Swedish massage worked away some tension out of the center of my back that I didn't even realize I had been carrying around. The Swedish massage relaxed my muscles and was delightful. The Swedish massage was followed by a back treatment and facial by owner Liz Beth. Yes, I truly glowed when I left. Ronald and Liz Beth are absolutely amazing in what they do and they're both so nice. The decor is so cute. I loved the ambiance. It was a serene, Zen vibe that drew my attention and set the tone well. It seemingly whispered the promise of a beautiful relaxing experience. Thank you to my sister who spent a good deal of time searching for the right location. She researched locations and found the Whispering Day Spa checked all of the boxes for her. She further visited the location in advance and spoke with the owner Liz Beth about her plans for the perfect experience. She did all of that in order to find just the right spa experience for me. Her efforts to find this location are truly appreciated. The Whispering Day Spa provided me an absolutely wonderful birthday experience. If you're reading this review because you are looking for a quality spa that delivers an above average relaxing experience, then I recommend you try Whispering Day Spa for yourself. I think you too will be absolutely pleased and delighted. You can post your own review and thank...

I had a 1 hour 20 minute swedish massage with Ronald. It was, no exaggeration, the best massage I've ever had. His touch was both technical and intuitive, it was like he was able to sense exactly what my body needed and used well developed therapeutic massage techniques to treat the muscles and open up areas of stress and tension. He also used stretching and range of motion techniques to open up the joints. The pressure was deep and intense but also gentle. He was able to apply a significant amount of pressure without hurting me and his movements were very smooth and flowed naturally and intuitively. His energy was very warm and calming. I felt my entire body melt into a deep relaxation within the 1st minutes and felt a major release of stagnant energy and a total rejuvenation by the end of the massage. I honestly felt like a new person afterward. I was relaxed, my stress and body tension were gone, my posture was improved, and I just generally had a feeling of lightness and contentment. Ronald is an incredibly talented and unique massage therapist. He provides a well tailored, personalized experience suited for each individual. You can tell there's no script or a going through the motions, I doubt any two massages would be the same. I can't sing his praises enough. Really amazing. And the office is really nice, clean and comfortable with a soothing atmosphere and the staff are friendly and accommodating. Five stars,...
