Surya Spa
About
Surya Spa, on Wilshire Blvd in Santa Monica, is an Ayurvedic treatment center best known for traditional Panchakarma cleanses: several days in a row of hours-long oil treatments and massage, plus a set diet. You can also book a single massage.
Jasmine says
goop-endorsed authentic Panchakarma: four hours a day for seven days on an ascetic menu; LA's priciest vacation is taking vows.
Jasmine’s notes
- Santa MonicaOn the ground floor of the Santa Monica Proper hotel, one of the few Ayurveda-focused spas in LA, working with Ayurvedic practitioner Martha Soffer. I've been; the ocean is right outside, so you can go for a walk after. 'Eastern therapies' at hotel spas are usually just marketing, but Surya is the exception: an oil-blending station on-site, six treatment rooms, and all-inclusive Panchakarma programs from 3 to 28 days.Order: The signature four-hand Abhyanga (two therapists massaging you at once with warm herbal oil), and you can add Shirodhara
