Wilshire Spa offers separate facilities for men and women, luxuriously equipped with indoor pools that leave limbs weightless and saunas that target pain and regulate body functions. Entry to the women’s spa comes replete with dry and steam saunas, a mineral-salt room, a charcoal room, and a pure onyx room, while the men’s offers hot and cold baths, a jade bath, dry and steam saunas, and rest lounges.

Women begin the slow transition to serenity in the water-therapy chamber, where clouds of vapor open pores, soothe respiratory systems, and announce the arrival of wish-granting genies inside the steam sauna. Dry heat in the mineral salt room encourages hormone-regulation and oxygen flow. In the charcoal room, imported yellow ocher channels milder temperatures and far-infrared rays that may boost metabolism to help the body dispel toxins. Finally, a trip to the onyx room encourages bodies to release pent-up pain and stiffness, drawing upon the power of its heated stone walls to maintain an environment filled with tranquility and lacking in abominable snow monsters. Over on the men’s side, guests can enjoy the same types of saunas and hot and cold baths or make muscles earn their vacation by trading gleaming beads of sweat for frequent-flier miles at the gym. The men’s spa remains open 24 hours a day, allowing visitors to escape to a warm, comforting environment on a whim.
