Sometimes, Los Angeles just gets to you. Whether it's the traffic or the smog, Beverly Hot Springs is the perfect retreat from the headache that can be L.A. The mineral pools, which are 100% pure alkaline minerals water, drawn from an artesian well 2,200 feet below the earth's surface. The soothing hot springs are a relaxing escape that also soften and rejuvenate the skin. For 60 minutes of bliss, try the Collagen Velvet Mask ($85) that reduces the appearance of annoying little lines by absorbing collagen into the skin. The shiatsu massage ($60) by Mrs. Lim is a rigorous tension eraser that left us nearly too relaxed to move. Steam and dry herbal saunas are also located on the premises.
