Unique Ways to Find Relaxation in West Hollywood

September is Mind + Body Month in West Hollywood, when the city invites locals and visitors alike to relax, recharge and indulge in a little self-care. West Hollywood is where wellness trends are born in boutique spas and launched into the global spotlight. Sure, Swedish massages and classic facials are always welcome, but WeHo’s wellness scene is always raising the bar. From hyperbaric chambers to full-body red-light biohacking, these experiences will have you rethinking what it means to rest and rejuvenate. 

Plan your visit and book a session to see why West Hollywood boasts more cutting-edge wellness options than anywhere else in Los Angeles.

Light Therapy

At Next Health, the treatments feel right out of a sci-fi storyline. Recline in their light-therapy lounge and you’re enveloped in precise wavelengths meant to energize, boost mood and help your body repair at the cellular level. It helps stimulate the production of collagen, elastin and adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which means your skin gets a big, glowy boost. It’s a quick, high-tech reset that leaves you refreshed and ready for whatever’s next on the itinerary.

You can also tap into those anti-aging and anti-inflammatory red-light benefits at Dr. Barbara Sturm. The spa was designed by architect Tobias Freytag — with sleek concrete tables, floating light fixtures, tall windows and a mirrored ceiling. It’s a refreshing and peaceful atmosphere to sit back and soak up some mitochondria-strengthening rays.

Or, walk through the door at Ole Henriksen Day Spa and be transported to a warm, candle-lit oasis where, among massages, facials and couples treatments, red-light therapy is on the menu. Since 1975, Ole Henriksen has blended natural ingredients with cutting-edge techniques at his West Hollywood spa, a Sunset Boulevard favorite for celebrities, locals and visitors.

Breathwork & Sound Baths

Book a guided meditation session with soaring skyline views inside The London West Hollywood with The Den. You’ll practice breathwork and mindfulness in a sunny rooftop space with sprawling views of the city below. Sunday sessions typically start with a fun “tea and mingle” and run about 75 minutes. The London West Hollywood often hosts sunset meditations, which come with the added bonus of stunning, cotton-candy-colored skies.

Snag your rose quartz, lay out your mat and settle into a verdant, plant-covered sanctuary for a peaceful sound-bath meditation with guided breathwork. In sessions at 1 Hotel West Hollywood hosted by Alo Moves, simply lie back as resonant tones from gongs and crystal bowls ripple through you. The vibrations and breathing techniques quiet racing thoughts, loosen tight muscles and shift you into a warm, meditative state. Themed evenings focus on love and romance, new moons and more.

Sweat Yoga offers a dedicated breathwork class that uses guided breathing to clear mental fog, ease anxiety and sharpen focus — all in dark, mirror-free rooms that keep distractions low. When you’re ready to turn up the heat, opt for one of their hot yoga sessions, where infrared panels warm the space to 98–105 degrees. Soft music sets the pace of your flow and the heat loosens muscles, opens joints and makes you sweat through every sequence. You leave relaxed and recharged, sporting what they call the unmistakable “sweat glow.”

NAD+ IV Therapy

At Next Health, IV therapy feels more like self-care than a procedure. After a quick consultation, you’ll relax in a modern, spa-like space while a customized drip delivers nutrients, minerals and amino acids to match your goals. Whether you’re looking to boost energy, protect immunity, recover from a hectic weekend or sharpen focus, many clients notice results within hours.

Cold Plunge

If you’ve ever wondered why everyone’s suddenly talking about cold plunges, LIV is the place to find out what all the hype is about. Their icy immersion pools are designed for short, powerful sessions that trigger endorphins, reduce inflammation and leave you feeling sharper than a morning espresso shot. Plus, the vibes are super fun and friendly, with motivational quotes on the wall that help you breathe through the teeth-chattering and step out smiling.

Scalp Treatments

At Aqua Lucca Head Spa, the spotlight is on a part of your body most treatments overlook — your scalp. Warm water cascades from your crown with a waterfall head bath, gentle shiatsu massage techniques melt facial tension and steamy aromatherapy makes the space smell absolutely amazing. Even though the focus is on your noggin, it’s a full-body sigh of relief you’ll feel long after your appointment ends.

At Purelux Scalp Spa, sessions begin with a detailed scalp analysis and then transition into cleansing oils, exfoliating mists and therapeutic shampoos paired with techniques like acupoint relaxation, gua sha and lymphatic massage. Infrared devices, oxygen infusion and microcurrent technology are used to stimulate follicles and support hair health, while the ergonomic massage beds make the whole experience feel extra restorative. That means you leave with a refreshed scalp, healthier-looking hair and the deep sense of calm that comes from an hour of focused care.

Infrared Sauna

The infrared sauna suites at Remedy Place prove that detoxing can be as stylish as it is effective. Curated playlists, sleek interior design and a fun social atmosphere turn what could be a functional sweat session into a luxe, feel-good hangout. Take a breath, sit back and enjoy the metabolism-boosting benefits of the warm and cozy space — and if you’re ready to take your wellness journey even further, Remedy Place also offers invigorating cryotherapy, restorative IV drips and guided ice baths designed to recharge both body and mind.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

At OxyRenew, pop into a private pressurized chamber for hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). Breathing concentrated oxygen in this setting is designed to accelerate recovery, reduce inflammation and leave you feeling fully recharged. Many visitors use sessions to boost their vacation-day energy, improve focus and support skin health thanks to increased circulation and collagen production. It’s a futuristic yet calming treatment that fits right into West Hollywood’s cutting-edge wellness scene.

Facial Workouts

Want to schedule some fitness for your face? At FaceGym, located inside 1 Hotel West Hollywood, experts use a combination of deep massage, lymphatic drainage techniques and patented EMS technology to sculpt, lift and tone facial muscles. Each “workout” runs about 35 minutes and is designed to leave you looking refreshed — no needles or downtime required. From a warm-up to cardio and even a cooldown, your skin gets treated like it just completed a high-intensity session at the gym.

Sensory Deprivation Floats

Step into a sensory deprivation tank at Pause Studio, where buoyant saltwater lifts you into weightlessness. In the dark, your heartbeat steadies and your breathing slows. The bath matches your body temperature, so as you float, you feel suspended in space. Magnesium-rich water works on sore muscles and joints so you come out looser, calmer and more focused — like you’ve pressed reset on your body and brain.
