Pause Studio
About
Pause Studio is an LA recovery studio built around red light therapy, infrared sauna, cold plunge and cryotherapy; this Sycamore Ave location near Hollywood is the flagship. Book sessions one at a time or as hot-cold bundles, and they've added robotic massage.
Jasmine says
Recovery turned into a whole store: private contrast-therapy suites (infrared sauna alternating with cold plunge), zero-gravity float tanks, full-body LED light therapy, cryo and IV drips; a pause button in the cool Sycamore district.
Red-light therapy is one of LA's favorite treatments lately: people wait in line to sit in flickering red-light saunas, sweating, meditating, taking selfies and treating their skin all at once.

Jasmine’s notes
- West HollywoodAs an introvert, getting massaged by the Aescape machine was a 10/10, and I actually fell asleep: minimal human interaction, perfect. LA's contrast therapy suites and float tanks, a place for looking after your nervous system. WeHo's recovery stop.Order: Aescape AI massage
