I've been a client of Verde Touch for over 4 years and originally found them serendipitously through a simple search on Yelp when I was pregnant. Verde happened to be very close to my home and I decided to give them a try. They've been a key part of my wellness practice and I'm grateful to David and his wonderful staff for keeping me relaxed, grounded and healthy throughout the years so I can simply be a better human :). They've revitalized me through ongoing massage during my pregnancy and well after, healed me through a horrible car accident and continues to surprise me with their craft approach to the art of massage.
I value my well-being especially living in Silicon Valley where it's hectic and frequent many spas around the world. Nothing compares to Verde when it comes to a nurturing, intentional, unpretentious and integrated massage experience.
Here's my recap:
Massage - David is an exceptionally talented therapist himself while also spending many hours training each and every therapist 1 on 1 for quality and consistency. He allows each to infuse their own personality into their practice. I've seen a handful of therapist each with their own style with the signature 'Verde Touch' in mind. You really enter a state of bliss and ultimate relaxation. The tables are comfy and linens soft.
For Individual/Couples massages are equally amazing (many options/promotions to find the right fit.
For Prenatal - AMAZING recess belly and breast holes in the table so you can lay face down and supported.
Staff - David, the owner and Heather, the Ops Manager are first class. In 4 years as a client, I don't think I've ever NOT received a confirmation email, text or some form of communication. If there are any cancellations, there's always a contingency (ie new date or therapist proposed). Their customer service is next level. It's exciting to see Verde's success is creating more demand and increased hiring of diverse and talented massage therapists.
Experience
Where do I start? Ok here goes...
Ambiance - Minimal, inviting, intimate, unassuming. I love it. There's a natural, deeply fragrant smell of the handmade, organic salve made in house, minimal greenery, plush furniture and wood accents that create a warm atmosphere.
Water - Reverse osmosis citrus water is clean, pure, refreshing and sooo delicious.
Organic Massage Salve - Is used during the massage and infused with quality, Young Living essential oils of your choice (or my favorite, therapists choice). I've used it as a hair mask, moisturize my toddler's skin, moisturize my lips and a plethora of other usages. It's made of organic coconut oil and beeswax and Verde magic. They sell it and I have a tub laying around everywhere - car, bedside, work.
Location - Los Altos (cozy corner nook and upstairs location), Hotel Los Gatos, and soon, downtown Palo Alto yay!. Great locations and all unique in their own way and very accessible.
Berries! Yes, raspberries, every single time, there for you to enjoy. I munch on them often :)
Automated booking App - Lifesaver. I always forget to schedule and with the app, you can pre book immediately or even find sessions last minute. It's been wonderful for not only myself but for my friends and family (i.e. family coming from out of town). The ease of scheduling is amazing.
Cost - Reasonable considering all the personal care Verde puts into supporting your well-being. There are so many promotions as well (birthday, try new therapists, etc).
David know's how to run a business so Verde will ALWAYS take care of you.
Hope you enjoy as much as I have - I think most of my friends are now Verde believers :) To your wellness.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Nicole V.Fallbrook, CA2541010Aug 11, 2023Updated review
[Updated] Been seeing David for Touch Therapy for almost a year now.
He did not just heal me, but invoked the ability - within me - to heal myself by rewiring my nervous system and knowing that it is safe to feel (which in turns allows me to heal)
Any pain, tension, and dissociation is my body's invitation to examine what I'm holding onto. The level of safety cultivated through touch therapy over the past year allows me to feel comfortable leaning into these nuanced expressions and thereby consciously release the emotional wounds behind all these ailments. It also increased my nervous system capacity to hold more ease and comfort in the body.
I invite anyone who experiences any pain, tension, dissociation or simply wants to tap into our body's innate intelligence to give it a year of touch therapy to see the difference.Helpful 2Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 1Apr 20, 2023Previous reviewThere is nothing quite like coming in for a massage at Verde. Perhaps it's the techniques and warmth of the therapists, perhaps it's the energetically life-giving space, perhaps it's the calming drums in the background music, or perhaps it's the two-ingredient pure goodness housemade massage cream.. probably all of the above! It is a sanctuary and essential nourishment for the mind, body, and soul.

I got a prenatal massage at 37 weeks and an induction massage at 39 weeks from Jess at Verde Touch. I wish I would have found this place sooner. It's absolutely the best prenatal massages I have ever gotten. Jess is thoughtful and carefully listens to your body through the process. Highly recommend an induction massage towards the end of your pregnancy when things are really uncomfy - not to mention I went into labor the next day! I will definitely be returning for a postpartum massage in the coming weeks.

I see Taha regularly at Verde. He is stellar, i always leave with all my tension relieved. I found him through another spa, and now see him here as he's so very good, i've also recommended him to all my friends. The spa itself is such a beautiful retreat, well worth the visit!

Looking for the best massage of your life? I'm sure everyone is great at Verde Touch and I was brought to this place by a friend who highly recommended David (the owner). BUT this review is mainly about the AMAZING Kat! I started seeing her for a prenatal massage, then postnatal and now normally deep tissue. She's done trigger point with me which is when she holds a point and I breath into it as well as pin and stretch technique. Today we did deep release technique- psoas release. She has been influenced by Rolphing and has studied miofascial releasing technique. She specializes in Integrated Therapeutic, Motherhood / prenatal, Thai, Acupressure, East / West, Trigger point and Deep Tissue. I have been to A LOT of spas and seen many massage therapist all over the country / world and she's tied for first place in my book. Highly recommended her, just don't take my time slot ;) :)
PS she also works in the Los Gatos location and if you visit her there you can use the pool / hot tub / sauna :)Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - RJ S.Los Altos, CA2529Jul 19, 2023

I've been trying to schedule something with Verde after the pandemic. But it's just too cumbersome. Tried twice and failed. Now it's members only?

Hi Nora, and everyone, I'm updating my response here to clarify our current MO for booking a massage with us.
Yes we are now a members venue, by invitation. Membership is free and massage is now by donation for our members. As a guideline we suggest a sliding scale of $150-$200 per hour. 1 hour is our minimum session, we can also do 75 min., 90 min. (90 min. us our standard recommendation) as well as 105 or 120 min. sessions.
To request membership and schedule a massage, either TEXT us to 650-933-6866 or EMAIL to info@verdetouch.com with:
Your first and last name
Whether you've been in before or if not, who referred you ("Yelp" if no one else)
Whether you prefer deep tissue or not
Whether you have a preference for male or female therapist or either
Days and times that work for you to receive your session
And we will get back to you promptly!
Sorry I cannot usually answer the phone, so text and email are the main avenues of communication, as I am still running the business solo.
Also fyi we ask our members to give a once per year donation to help us keep our doors open and to develop further offerings and infrastructure to serve you (currently building our first sauna).
Thanks for taking the time to read this and hope to see you soon,
In touch,
-DavidNov 5, 2020Previous reviewI really miss this place. Saundra gave me the best prenatal massage.. slash that.. it was, hands down, the best massage I've had! I was so looking forward to getting a postnatal massage . Fingers crossed to them getting back on their feet & reopening safely once the pandemic is under control.
Lots of Love

What a wonderful place! Highly recommend to visit David; he is incredible - hands, energy! I feel amazing after only one hour Thank you so much!

I've been telling all my friends about this place as it's true therapy. I've been a few times now and have seen a couple different massage therapists, both which have been absolutely incredible. I would never go anywhere else. You walk into the space, which is obscure from the outside, yet easy to find, and immediately feel relaxed. There are so many peaceful nooks and crannies to chill out in either before or after your massage, which is in a private dome and is very relaxing. I love every single thing about Verde and hope others get to experience it for themselves!

Absolutely one of the best massages I've ever had. David demonstrated a tremendous amount of knowledge for prenatal massage and took great care in helping me feel my best. I can't wait to come back in a few weeks.
