Welcome to Spa Defined

Spa Defined is the only website dedicated to Spas in Santa Barbara, Ojai and the Santa Ynez Valley.  There are personal reviews and photographic tours showing the beauty and uniqueness of each spa. It is the ultimate guide for finding the ultimate spa experience.

Life is hectic; you deserve a breather and Spa Defined can help you find the perfect spa destination and treatment.  Whether you are looking for a quaint cottage spa tucked away or a spa experience close enough to the beach to get a hint of ocean breeze, I can direct you.  If you have questions about different treatments, I can assist you and refer you to spas that specialize in an array of treatments depending on your needs.

I believe spa health is not only about pampering and relaxation, but also nutrition and exercise.  You can get a facial every week, but if you are not drinking enough water and internally taking care of your body by eating the right foods, it will show in your skin and affect your energy.

In addition to nutrition and exercise, remember to create your own mini refreshers when you can't escape to a spa.  Perhaps sitting in your favorite nook with a cup of green tea, watching a sunset, walking through a lavender field or even something as simple as smelling the jasmine would give you a chance to relax your mind and body.

I hope you enjoy the art of relaxation and rejuvenation.

Indulging in health,
