Infrared Therapy

"I booked 3 sessions of Infared Light Therapy. I have been reading about the benefits of red light therapy and I knew I needed the best -- not an LED add on in a tanning booth or just a panel of lights. Cienega has the NovoTHOR, a full body clamshell ibed. The light is BRIGHT but not hot (you're provided with goggles), there's no UVB so no skin damager. The aesthetician needs to turn the machine on and off for you so it's a little awkward. You get inside, take off your robe, they close the top and turn it on, and then check on you every five minutes to make sure you're not getting claustorphobic or too hot. I did three sessions in four days. Results? Well, maybe it's because I'm on vacation but my sleep and mood are much improved, and I have no body aches or muscle soreness anywhere in my body. I don't see any changes in my skin, but maybe it's too soon to tell, or more sessions would be needed.The spa itself is in a nice spot in Santa Monica with free parking, and the service is friendly and attentive. They have a great selection of treatments, and I've to come back to try some others like the IV Therapy or Cryotherapy. I'm a little unnerved that the IV treatment pods are in a windowed room passerbys can see, but you have to admit, it does catch the eye and make the spa look interesting."

"Looking for efficient, welcoming, and pain-free laser hair removal? This is the one and only place for you! If I’m being honest, I was skeptical at the online video that claimed laser hair removal felt like a “hot stone massage.” I had to try it for myself and… with enough cooling gel IT’S ALL TRUE! Progressing towards my half year of treatment, I’m almost ready to move on to my next area! I’ve been doing full face (chin, upper lip, side burns, cheeks) and have seen amazing results. I had done electrolysis for a whole year prior to laser and saw little to no change— I was so upset! Since my first visit at Cienega Med Spa, I felt so welcomed and comfortable with all staff. Here is what to except: Get greeted by a friendly and polite team upfront to check you in and schedule future appointments. Then be escorted by welcoming nurses (yes, nurses!) to your room to get your treatment done. My favorite nurse (which I will not disclose to make sure I have enough appointments with her—lol) always tends to any of my concerns or questions and goes out of her way to ensure I have the best possible session. You’ll feel so pampered here! After my first session, I had already seen significant results. Now after my five sessions, Cienega Med Spa brought back my confidence. I’m no longer hiding behind my mask! I smile with pride and show off my face any chance I get!"

"Huge fan of Cienega Spa! I've been doing laser hair removal treatments since last year. It's nearly painless, as long as you've shaved you feel very little. I did laser hair removal in the past and the pain was horrible, so I thought I'd never do it again. But then I did a test run with Cienega Spa on one underarm, and it was so quick and painless that I came back to do other bikini hair removal as well. It's so awkward to go in and laser certain parts of your body, but the nurses have always been professional, efficient, and friendly. I like that they're all RNs - they're really all about the latest technology at Cienega Spa. The spa is beautiful and smells amazing. It's a place you can really look forward to visiting - it's white, clean, relaxing. I always get in and out within 15 minutes. I really like going and I'm happy with my results!"
