They would never advertise it, but north of 300 plants call The Well their home.

The history?
Parekh likes to say that the original story of The Well dates back to before she was born.
What should you try?
The number one rule of going to a spa is that you must get a massage.
I very much enjoyed the Integration Massage.
And lastly, as Parekh points out, food is really our love language.
Try almost anything from their lobby restaurant,The Well Kitchen & Table.
How environmentally friendly is it?
Their cleaning products are nontoxic, and the womens club is stocked with organic tampons.
Wherever possible, The Well is ready to think local, organic, and earth-friendly.
