Spring Serenity
By Amy Spagnola
What good is a spa treatment if it isn’t therapeutic? Therapeutic massages and facials are perfect for a spring escape. Los Angeles is one of the best places in the world to find natural, healing-centric and organic beauty treatments. And since spring offers sunshine, it’s a good idea to find facials to keep the skin exfoliated, fresh and blemish free.
Here are some top spas and their services to try this spring:
