Donna, I like the list of spas you have listed but guess what....there is a new one opening at Hollywood and Highland. If you sign up as a member at www.spaluce.com you can get tons of perks. You can also use the Renaissance Hotel pool the rest of the day after your treatment. I though you might be able to use this information to add on to the great list of spas that you already have. I look forward to seeing what you have to say about this spa. I am very curious myself

boil up a kettle of water, throw some mentholatum into a clean bathroom sink, pour in water, put towel over head and drape over sink and breathe in menthol steam. best thing for what ails you...oh, and a steaming mug of hot water, brandy, honey and lemon or lime juice. stay away from everyone until you aren't spreading germs. hope you feel better.

Ew! Why would you even think of using your gym facilities while you are sick? That's not cool to spread your germs that way - thoughtless and selfish really. Just like that dude at 24 Hour Fitness who I was sharing a pool lane with. Clearly he did not consider the fact that he was coughing up blood IN THE POOL to be an issue for anyone that was using it. It was not an issue for the staff at the gym either, so they refused to close and decontaminate the pool. This is why I quit that gym. Do us all a favor and stay out of the public facilities while you are contaminated. Sucks that you have to suffer at home with your vaporizer that does not do a great job, but please spare the rest of us.
