Skill you can feel
Every therapist is licensed, insured, background-checked, and trained in at least three modalities — matched to your body, not just your booking.
About us
A Studio Built for Deep Rest
Sixteen years of skilled hands, natural oils, and quiet rooms in the heart of San Francisco.
Our story
Professional Care, Inspired by Nature
Amberfold Bodywork began in 2010 with a single treatment room, a secondhand table, and a simple belief: that healing starts the moment you feel truly cared for. Founder Maya Hartley spent her early career in clinical rehab settings, where she saw how much faster people recovered when therapy came with warmth instead of hurry.
Today our Fern Alley studio is home to a small team of licensed therapists who share that philosophy. We keep our practice intentionally small — natural oils, unhurried sessions, honest flat-fee pricing — so every visit feels personal, restorative, and worth repeating weekly.

What we believe
Three Promises, Kept Every Visit
Nature first
Plant-based oils, fragrance-free options, hot towels, and warm stones. Nothing harsh, nothing rushed — care your skin and lungs both welcome.
Honest and small
Flat-fee pricing, same-day openings, and evening and weekend hours. A sustainable neighborhood studio, not a pressure-driven chain.
