Studio details and menu last verified
The studio
What kind of day spa is this?
A small one on a shopping street, built around 6 services rather than a menu nobody can choose from. Massage is the core of it: one Body Massage booking covers Swedish and deep tissue at whatever pressure you ask for, and the rest of the menu adds a lymphatic facial, a couples room, prenatal work and a foot-and-body hour.
What a massage in Palo Alto can honestly do for you is worth being straight about. The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health reports that the evidence is strongest for short-term relief of low-back and neck pain, and thinner for most other claims. Mayo Clinic frames it the same way in its rundown of what massage therapy is used for: useful alongside ordinary care rather than a replacement for it. We do not claim more than that anywhere on this site.
On the menu:
- Swedish Massage
- Deep Tissue Massage
- Lymphatic Facial Massage
- Couples Massage
- Prenatal Massage
- Foot Reflexology
- Hot Stone Therapy
- Cupping
- Body Scrub
Organic oils, skilled hands, and a quiet hour off California Avenue.
What we care about
What can you count on at every visit?
Five things, and they hold whether you book the cheapest hour on the menu or the longest.
-
You set the pressure
Swedish and deep tissue are the same booking here — you choose the pressure. Say how firm you want the work and where to spend the time, and the hour is built around that.
-
Organic oil, included
Every massage is worked with organic massage oil at no extra charge, alongside hot towels and a complimentary hot stone add-on.
-
No upselling at the table
Nobody pitches a package while you are face down. Add cupping for $20 or a body scrub for $30 if you want one; otherwise nothing gets added to the bill.
-
Parking on the same block
Metered street parking runs along California Avenue, with public lots directly behind it. No garage to circle, nothing to validate.
-
One block from Caltrain
The California Avenue station is about a five minute walk, one block along the same street. Look for Suite 180 and the bench outside.
The name
What does organic mean here?
The oil. Every massage on the menu is worked with organic massage oil, included at no extra charge, and that is the extent of the claim. There is no organic skincare line behind the front desk and nothing more the name stands in for.
The rest of the studio is ordinary in the way a good one should be. Single rooms with the lamps down for solo sessions, a couples room with two tables made up side by side, a lounge with a velvet bench where you wait, and fresh linens for every guest. Hot towels close out every massage, draping stays careful, and the hot stone add-on costs nothing.
Booking works one of two ways: online through Square, which takes live availability against the menu, or by phone on (650) 567-8886 if you would rather describe what you need to a person first.
Plan your visit
What does your first visit look like?
Three steps and about two minutes of admin. All of it happens on the day; nothing needs filling in beforehand.
-
Book online or call
Reserve through Square, or call (650) 567-8886. Online booking shows live availability, and a first visit puts the 90 minute Combo at 128 instead of 188.
-
Two minutes of talking first
Your therapist asks what you want worked on and how firm you like it. Say too if there is anything to leave alone: an injury, a sore shoulder, a cupping mark you would rather not carry this week.
-
Then the table
Sessions run 30 minutes to 120 minutes and finish with hot towels. You stay draped throughout, and the room stays quiet unless you feel like talking.

Good to know
What do guests ask about the studio?
What makes Organic Day Spa a day spa rather than a massage clinic?
The menu and the room. A day spa in Palo Alto sells an hour you enjoy rather than a course of treatment. On our menu that means massage, a lymphatic facial, a couples room with two tables, hot towels at the end, and a complimentary hot stone add-on with every massage. Sessions run 30 minutes to 120 minutes. We are not a medical office, and nothing here is treatment for a diagnosed condition.
What does organic mean at Organic Day Spa?
It means the oil. Every massage is worked with organic massage oil, included at no extra charge, and that is the whole of the claim. There is no organic skincare line behind the desk, and we would rather say so than let the name imply one.
Can I request a male or female therapist?
Ask when you book and we will do our best. Who is working depends on the schedule that day, so calling (650) 567-8886 gets you a straighter answer than the online calendar will. If the request matters to you, mention it before the day of the appointment rather than at the door.
What should I expect on a first visit?
Arrive a few minutes early, wait in the lounge, and spend two minutes with your therapist on pressure and problem areas before anything starts. First visits often go to the 90 minute Combo, which is $128 the first time instead of $188: 60 minutes of massage, then a 30 minute lymphatic facial.
Can I come on a lunch break?
Yes. The shortest bookings are 30 minutes of Lymphatic Facial Massage at $84 and 45 minutes of Body Massage at $80, and the 60 minute Foot + Body Combo is $78. We open at 9:30 AM Tuesday through Sunday and 10:30 AM on Monday, and there is metered parking on California Avenue for a midday visit.
Do I need an appointment?
Yes, the studio runs by appointment. Book online through Square or call (650) 567-8886 to ask what is open today. We are open every day until 9:30 PM, so an evening session after work is a real option rather than a weekend-only one.
