What we offer
What services does Organic Day Spa offer?
A body massage is $90 for 60 minutes, and you can book anywhere from 45 up to 120 minutes. Swedish or deep tissue costs the same, so just say how firm you like it. The rest of the menu is a lymphatic facial from $84, a couples room for two from $180, and prenatal massage from $120. There is also a $78 hour that splits between your feet and your body, and a 90 minute combo of massage and facial.

Why choose us
Why book your massage in Palo Alto here?
Six reasons, and none of them is atmosphere. Organic oils, skilled hands, and a quiet hour off California Avenue. Prenatal massage in Palo Alto is worked side-lying with bolsters, the couples room holds two tables, and the doors stay open until 9:30 PM every night of the week.
-
Organic oil, fresh linens
Every massage is worked with organic oil on linens changed between guests, and every session ends with hot towels.
-
A menu that starts at $78
Every rate is published before you book, so the bill matches what you read.
-
Open seven days until 9:30 PM
Late slots every night of the week, which is the difference between booking after work and booking next month.
-
Five minutes from Caltrain
The California Avenue station is one block along the same street, so you can come down the line and walk the last quarter mile.
-
A private couples room
Two tables side by side, two therapists working at once, and the door closed for the length of the session.
-
Pressure you set, not a script
Tell your therapist where you carry tension and how firm you want the work. The session is built from that answer.
About the studio
What is Organic Day Spa like inside?
Small and quiet. Organic Day Spa is a day spa in Palo Alto with private treatment rooms, a lounge off the front desk and a separate room for two, at 200 California Avenue, Suite 180. The phone is (650) 567-8886. Every massage is worked with organic oil on fresh linens, and every session ends with hot towels.
The menu is short on purpose. Body massage comes in five lengths from 45 to 120 minutes, Swedish or deep tissue at the same rate. Couples massage in Palo Alto runs in one room with two tables and two therapists working at once, $180 for the pair at 60 minutes. Lymphatic facial massage in Palo Alto is 30 or 50 minutes, booked on its own or as the second half of the 90-minute combo.
Meet the studioWellness guides
What does the research actually say about massage?
Less than the marketing implies, and our guides name the studies rather than gesture at them. The back-pain guide works from a 2015 Cochrane review of 25 trials and 3,096 patients; the stress guide from a pooled analysis of 37 randomized studies in which blood pressure fell and cortisol did not. Background reading comes from the NCCIH and Mayo Clinic. Each guide also says where the evidence runs out.
Does massage help back pain?
A 2015 Cochrane review pooled 25 studies and 3,096 patients. The relief was real, modest and short-term.

Massage for stress and anxiety
Across 37 randomized trials, anxiety and blood pressure fell after one session. Cortisol did not.

How much does a massage in Palo Alto cost at Organic Day Spa?
From $78, which is the 60-minute Foot + Body Combo — thirty minutes of reflexology, then thirty on the body. A Body Massage is $80 for 45 minutes, $90 for 60, $115 for 75, $135 for 90 and $180 for 120. Couples starts at $180 for the pair, Prenatal at $120, and Lymphatic Facial Massage at $84.
What are your hours?
We are open seven days a week. Monday runs 10:30 AM to 9:30 PM, and Tuesday through Sunday 9:30 AM to 9:30 PM. Evening appointments are on the same menu and at the same prices as daytime ones.
Do I need to book, or can I walk in?
Book if you can. We work by appointment — online through Square or by phone on (650) 567-8886 — because that is the only way to hold a room and a therapist for a particular time. Walk-ins are welcome when a therapist is free, but an appointment is the only way to be sure.
What is the 90-minute Combo, and what does a first visit cost?
It is 60 minutes of Swedish or deep tissue massage followed by a 30 minute lymphatic facial massage, in one appointment. The list price is $188, and a first visit is $128, so a new client saves $60 on it.
Do you have a room where two people can be massaged together?
Yes. One room holds two tables, and two therapists work at the same time. Sixty minutes is $180 for both people, which is $90 each — the same as a solo hour. Seventy-five minutes is $230 and ninety is $270, each price covering the pair.
Where do I park, and how close is Caltrain?
There is metered street parking along California Avenue and public lots behind it. The California Avenue Caltrain station sits at 101 California Avenue, about a five-minute walk from our door, one block along the same street. By car, downtown Menlo Park is roughly 10 to 12 minutes away and downtown Mountain View about 12 to 15.
Can I ask for deep tissue pressure?
Yes, and it costs no extra. There is no separate deep tissue booking on our menu: the Body Massage is Swedish or deep tissue, and your therapist works at the pressure you ask for. Say what you want at the start, and say so again mid-session if you would rather have it lighter or firmer.
