"When you are at the top of your game, it's easy to forget the innovation that got you there. At Spa Ojai we are continually working to set new standards in the spa world," said Gloria Ah Sam, director of Spa Ojai.  "We see Spa Ojai as an incubator for the finest spa programs that can be delivered, for both the body and the mind."

Spa Ojai has an extensive menu of treatments, ranging from traditional massages, body treatments and facials to exclusive signatures, such as the Kuyam experience.  Kuyam is a native Chumash word, which means "a place to rest together."  The treatment combines cleansing mud and dry heat inhalation therapy with guided meditation.  

The Artist's Cottage provides unique experiences designed to spark your creativity, reinforcing the notion that spa experiences should be all encompassing.  Guests are invited to explore their ingenuity by trying one of the studio classes available, offering everything from glass painting to silverpoint drawing.  The Apothecary allows guests to custom blend aromatic oils used therapeutically, creating an individualistic experience.

The Spa also offers Mind & Body Programs ranging from guided hikes to private Tai Chi lessons.  For guests ages 13 to 15, teen facials designed to illuminate their young complexions can be followed by a "Show Me How Make-Up Lesson" with a make-up specialist.

"Our recent renovations reinforce our commitment to Spa Ojai," remarked managing director Janis Clapoff. "The spa of the future is here and we stand committed to the excellence our clientele have come to expect from us."
