The notion of a quick spa treatment may sound contradictory — after all, doesn’t rushing the experience defeat the purpose? Indeed, a leisurely spa visit is the best kind, but what’s really important is taking time out. When your schedule doesn’t permit the luxury of an entire afternoon — or even a whole hour — the expanding array of express treatments promises rewarding results in 30 minutes or less. [Read more →]

Center for Wellbeing: Come On, Stay Awhile…

Tucked into an upstairs space in the Mayberry-like town of Sierra Madre, the Center for Wellbeing is small on space but big on service, as proprietor Tanya likes to say. We visited during a late spring heat wave, perhaps not the best time for a trip to the arid foothill community.

Spas get specialized
Whether you’re seeking a healthy adventure or a pampered retreat, we’ve found the perfect spa for you.

We don’t have to tell you: Modern life can stress you out. And we all know what stress can do to our bodies. That’s why so many of us are flocking to spas to chill out. There are more than 32 million regular spa-goers in the United States alone. In 2006, the estimated 14,615 spas generated more than $9 billion in revenues. That’s big business.
