THE HEALING FREQUENCY

How many celeb wellness habits have I actually tried? | The LA celebrity wellness list

Celebs on Instagram take ice baths, sleep in hyperbaric chambers, lie on red-light beds, and a lot of it is bookable in LA. Only what celebs themselves have said or posted, each matched with where to do it in LA and what to know first.

Key points

  1. Celebs are closer than you think

    Hiking Runyon, I've run into Justin Bieber and Charlize Theron; taking class at Alo HQ, I've run into actresses from TV shows. A lot of the wellness you see on celebrities' IG, you can book in LA.

  2. How to read this, first

    I only include what celebrities have said in interviews or on their own IG; them liking it doesn't mean it's proven to work, I'll note any sponsorships, and I don't say where they live or go. 'Watching what celebrities do is fun, but your body is your own.'

  3. Ice baths & hot-cold contrast

    Media reported that Lady Gaga shared on IG in 2019 that after shows she does an ice bath, then a hot bath. Remedy Place, Pause and Den Mother all offer this; if you have a history of heart disease, ask your doctor first, and don't plunge alone.

  4. Infrared saunas

    Cindy Crawford and Gwyneth Paltrow have both said in interviews that they use infrared saunas regularly. In LA there's Pause and Remedy Place, and the Santa Monica Proper too; ACOG recommends avoiding them during pregnancy.

  5. Red light

    Kim Kardashian shared an LED mask on her stories in 2023, noting it wasn't sponsored. Remedy Place has red-light beds and Pause has LED; 'better skin' is the brand's claim, and protect your eyes.

  6. Lymph & compression suits

    Jennifer Aniston posted a photo on IG in 2023 in lymphatic compression gear. In Taiwan it's 推淋巴; in LA it's lymphatic: Miss Lymph and The Tox both do it; skip it if you have blood clots or heart or kidney issues.

  7. IV drips (please read this page slowly)

    Kelly Osbourne posted a photo getting an IV drip in 2014. Remedy Place and Pause both have them on the menu, but the FDA and the California Board of Pharmacy have warned about contamination and oversight: first ask who assesses you and who prescribes it.

  8. Pilates

    Hailey Bieber told Vogue in 2019 that she loves hot Pilates. I've been to Curanim in Culver City, a reformer studio that starts with breath and slows things down.

  9. Sound bath

    Gwyneth Paltrow said in 2023 that the best wellness thing she's ever done was a sound bath. In LA there's Open in Venice and The Mindry in Malibu; Cedars-Sinai says it mostly rests on personal experience.

  10. Cupping & acupuncture

    Gwyneth Paltrow walked a premiere red carpet with cupping marks back in 2004. In LA, try Felice Acupuncture or Centered Wellness in Pasadena; find a licensed L.Ac., and mention it if you're on blood thinners.

  11. Celeb collab smoothies

    Hailey Bieber launched the Strawberry Glaze Skin Smoothie with Erewhon in 2022, $17 a cup; as of October 2026 you can still buy the kit online. The FDA doesn't approve supplements before they go on sale.

  12. Hyperbaric chambers

    Justin Bieber shared on his stories in 2019 that he sleeps in a hyperbaric chamber. Remedy Place and OxyRenew in WeHo have them; the FDA says it's only proven effective for specific conditions and recommends doing it under a doctor's care.

  13. Ammortal Chamber

    The Dodgers' Freddie Freeman is a spokesperson and investor. A pod you lie in that combines pulsed electromagnetic fields, vibration and sound, light therapy and guided breathing; the Soma Recovery Suite at the Santa Monica Proper has one.

  14. Honest reminder

    What celebrities say is their experience, and this post isn't medical advice. Ask your doctor before IVs, ice baths, hyperbaric chambers or saunas during pregnancy. 'Celebrities have a team of doctors; we need our own doctors too.'

  15. Two-city mirror

    In Taipei, celebrities' wellness secrets are 'drink lots of water, go to bed early' and the pot of soup simmering at home; in LA, it's the ice bath and red light on their stories, which you can book on Sunset Blvd the next day.
