Seal Beach, CA Spa and Massage

At Adonis Spa, aestheticians invoke the eponymous Greek god of beauty and follow tips that surface during in-depth consultations as they craft custom concoctions of plant-derived Pure Fiji skincare products. The spa sets a soothing tone the moment clients walk through the door: peaceful music wafts throughout the space, fruit-infused water or herbal tea beckons clients' palates, and aestheticians sing lullabies to stressed-out complexions. The treatments themselves also soothe. Therapists incorporate aromatherapy into their massages, for instance, and aestheticians cosset skin with plant- and mineral-derived products whenever possible.

Within the earth-hued walls of House of Synergy, patrons primp from crown to pinkie toe with hair, massage, facial, and waxing services. Highlights, haircuts, and campfire songs unfurl near the warmth of a red-brick fireplace, and a glass of wine, coffee, or hot tea toasts bon voyage to sore muscles before relaxing massages and facials commence. In partnership with Locks of Love, House of Synergy hosts two charity events a year to collect hair from patrons that can be made into wigs for children suffering with alopecia areata.
