Studio City's Tujuana Village is undergoing transformation, a refresh.
First, it was Mommy-Me Time, Spa Le La, a spa with a nursery upfront in the lobby then a infared sauna, bath, and massage throne rooms way in the back.
Now, there's the Muse House Retreat https://www.musehouseretreat.com/, for your first step and the consequenstial steps in life. Everyone has to start somewhere.
It took Muse House Retreat creator, Ashlan Christoph, courage to break away from what's not working, in order to move on to what's working...and sensing what the neighborhood needs, especially in this age of anxiety and worry.
The Muse House Retreat is a warm place of solace, a sanctuary where you'll be accepted for whom you are while getting your soul cleansed with a tea bar and good viberations from crystals. If you need guidance-no judgement here-you can seek wisedom from their bookstore and tarot card section...
Or, you can journal your journey...
You can use crystals and gems for protection and intentions and they look good too...
You can even sip crystal-infused water for better viberations...
To honor Ashlan's Native American heritage, she set up a teepee where the sound baths are held to realign people's vibes...
Way in the back, are two guidance rooms with tarot card readers to give people guidance and help them spot sign posts.
Once you got your inner soul attuned, it's time to tune up your body. Spa Le La is few storefronts away from The Muse Retreat House.
Even though it's primary focus and goal is an escape retreat for moms, with a playroom up in the lobby while the treatment rooms are way in the back, mere mortals can use their treatments.
On a blustery winter day, you can warm up in the Infrared Sauna, more than being toasty, it:
- Pain relief
- Stress relief
- Decreased inflammation
- Relaxation
- Weight loss
- Detoxification
- Skin purification & repair
- Increased circulation
And if that’s not enough to convince you, one 25-minute session in our sauna burns the same amount of calories as running two miles (true calories not just water weight). This is a great way to show your body a little love for all the work it does!
The fave is the hydraulic, robotic, massage throne. If you need unknot and knead the kinks out of your sore muscles but can't stand being touched, Spa Le La's robotic massage throne can give me a full body, head-to-toe massage, hands-free.
Sit back and melt into their state-of-the-art, zero gravity, three dimensional massage throne. By measuring your spine and adjusting to your body, you’ll receive a custom experience regardless of your shape or size. There are dual foot rollers available which work on the bottom of your feet to stimulate the acupuncture points while they spin. The motion of these rollers triggers instant relaxation throughout the body and also improves blood circulation in the feet.
The three dimensional massage technology allows the rollers not only to move upwards and downwards, but also enables them to move in and out an additional 3-5 inches making it a three dimensional massage. The 8 automatic programs of this chair can give you the best Shiatsu massage experience, which is a great way to bust stress and can also help fight insomnia, with just a push of a button.
One of the features enhancing the effectiveness of robotic massage is zero gravity. While the so-called high-end massage chairs provide only 1 zero-gravity position, our Kahuna LM8800 blows its competition out of the water by providing 2 zero-gravity positions, which makes it a perfect chair for zero-gravity lovers.
The squeeze feature is part of the stretching program of this chair. It targets the shoulders, lumbar area, and hips, squeezing the body left and right, giving your body an effective stretch. This is done by programming the airbags to inflate at a specific time, one after another, making your shoulders, lumbar, and hips squeeze and twist.
Spa Le La's massage throne is a cocoon that appropriately snuggles, hugs, pumps, and tones thru sensor-pressured air and temperature heat. No fear is true relief and actual relaxation.
Both Infrared Sauna and the Massage Throne are affordable and fits into a fast-paced lifestyle and a jam-packed schedule.
Thanks to Tujuana Village's Muse House Retreat and Spa Le La, you can get both your body and soul aligned and tuned for the rest of the day and for the next steps in life.
