The Warm Bamboo Renewal at Spa Vitale in San Francisco Will Treat Your Tired Soul

Think Bamboo ~ and what comes to your mind?  For me,  it’s peace and tranquility.   The sound of bamboo wind chimes outside my home office window soothes my spirit on any given breezy day.   A lush bamboo forest we had visited while on vacation in the island of Oahu was filled with  lovers names carved on the trunks of the trees (image below).   Many other uses of bamboo may easily come to my mind.  I couldn’t, however, completely fathom a Warm Bamboo Renewal spa treatment until I had to opportunity to try one out recently.  Heavens!   I mean, heaven!

Spa Vitale in San Francisco

Bamboo on my mind

Spa Vitale is the penthouse spa facility at  Hotel Vitale,  Joie de Vivre’s boutique luxury waterfront property by the Embarcadero in San Francisco .   It had been a busy week for me, prepping to finish what I had lined up for work and rounding up  my holiday errands before the rest of my family was off from work themselves.  A pit stop to a spa sounded divine and the thought of this new and unique treatment certainly intrigued me.  It was a very foggy day which required some  white knuckle driving across the bridge for me so by the time I arrived, I was ready to release some pent up tension.   Spa Vitale is the only spa in San Francisco to offer this treatment which is described below.

An innovative technique incorporating polished bamboo rods, massage oils, and soothing heat in conjunction with hand massage, the Warm Bamboo Renewal treatment promotes circulation and provides a deep sense of relaxation and well-being. The treatment can help with lymphatic drainage and sensory nerve perception when preformed with a light to medium touch, but also has the capability of releasing knots and trigger points with deep work, making it a versatile option for guests.
