Group sauna
Alexa D.

I found this spot via ClassPass and had a great experience! My friend and I went for a group sauna and loved our experience. The staff was flexible about is changing our time the day of, which was awesome. The group sauna experience was great! We had a large room to ourselves with a large sauna that held us both easily. We loved that they had a tv setup that we could use watch with Netflix too. It was also nice to have the room for when we needed breaks! We ended up showering after and the shower area was nice. They have wonderful soaps and a vitamin c infused shower head. Also got additional complimentary towels for this! Great vibes, great space, and helpful staff!

I'm stuck somewhere between 3 and 4 stars -- I enjoyed my first visit to both the infrared sauna and the cold plunge, but not sure this is a place I would visit regularly. The private sauna was nice and cozy with built in speakers to listen to music or watch tv. You pay for a full hour but they seem to be pretty strict about stopping you after 45 minutes. That was more than enough time for me, but I do not know why they advertise a full hour then. I'm glad I tried the cold plunge but mostly because I felt like I needed to shower. This didn't necessarily feel like the cleanest place, unfortunately. There were plenty of people coming in and out and I don't believe any of the rooms were cleaned while I was there. I know somebody used the cold plunge after I did which seems unsanitary. Also the floors were all very wet which insinuates people were in the cold plunge before me, and there isn't much space to get changed into dry clothes afterwards. There are signs that say "get naked" but I would certainly advise wearing a bathing suit! Besides the sauna rooms, it unfortunately doesn't feel very private here either. You need to go through the lone hallway to get from the sauna to the cold plunge, which is a straight shot out through the front door and onto the street. I don't necessarily want all of Santa Monica Blvd to see me in a towel for free, though the people should be so lucky to! Also there's a massive crack in the door that leads to the shower and cold plunge room. Like you can probably see the person in the shower from the hallway if you look through the crack, it was very noticeable and a little concerning

Beautiful space! It's been a while since I've done a cold plunge and found this beautiful place via ClassPass. Carly helped answer some questions on the phone and was sweet and super patient. I ended up doing the infrared first. I found street parking a block away, wasn't bad at all. I noticed ppl in line out the door for a place called Mamie, asked Carly about it, she recommended it. Separate review lol. Infrared first. Room is beautiful. Love the setup with the tvs, felt super peaceful and was very relaxing. Carly showed me my cold plunge room on our walk down the hall. It was close enough that I felt comfortable darting across the hall in my bikini and a little towel. Cold plunge space is beautiful, and it's the equivalent of a sit down bath tub. The showers in the room and stocked with Ursa Major which are great products. It's also a vitamin c shower which is super dope! Idk if it was the infrared first or just changes in my body but I wasn't able to plunge like normal when I went, and that's ok I meet my body where it is. It's still a lovely space that I will visit again. I will tell you that if you're going to hit Mamie after, order before you leave! Great spot, all the amenities and ofc I love the name!

I love coming to this homey sanctuary. The staff is so kind and friendly. Beau is the absolute best! He is the face of this establishment and runs it perfectly. While in the infrared sauna you can watch some Netflix or meditate while you detox, relieve pain, improve circulation, rejuvenate your skin and burn some calories! This session is 45 minute increments. After the infrared sauna, enjoy the the physical benefits of cold plunging. Experts say cold water immersion can decrease inflammation, offer a huge rush of endorphins, spike dopamine, improve sleep and mood, reduce stress, help remedy aches and pains, boost injury recovery, reduce swelling, potentially increase testosterone, promote lymphatic drainage, regulate hormones and accelerate metabolism. This session is 20 minutes. After leaving here you will feel revived and ready to take on the world! You must add this place to your weekly routine and it will change your life!

Wet towel + Netflix Remote

3.5/5 stars. This was my first time trying LIV, but not my first time doing infrared sauna. So my review is mixed. For starters the male at the front desk was nice + accommodating all day from when I called in until when I arrived for my session. My room suite was a nice size, and had the tv as well. Pros: I did like the the sauna was a smaller one because I feel like I got the full benefits and really got to sweat and detox. So after the 45 minutes I was feeling refreshed. Cons:My Netflix remote was damaged, and the inside of my sauna had a weird like pee smell which bothered me a bit during my session. I could hear people yelling (maybe talking loud) in the hallway during my session. There's only 1 shower, and it's located in the plunge room. Therefore unless you book the plunge room or no one else is in it you have access to the shower. So I would definitely recommend you calling ahead to check availability. I'm sure it's a popular locals place, and it's good for th Benifits and what you need. But not for me because I couldn't get with the smell. In all - I still recommend the experience.

Cold plunge 1

Lovely space! Clean and great hours. Highly recommend for cold plunge & sauna. Easy metered parking all around.

Came here to try out the facilities and it was a pretty cool experience. You can choose between the suana or the plunge baths. The space was super clean and loved the serene feeling. I chose to do the suana and love how there was a TV inside to watch Netflix. Very cool experience. I only wish I had known you can only use shower if you reserved it after your session. Unfortunately it was booked after mine, so I had to wait till I got home to do that. But overall, I had a good experience.

Love this spot! All the employees are friendly and have great energy. The unlimited infrared sauna and cold plunge membership is definitely worth the price. They have speakers inside the sauna so you can meditate and zen out while you sweat‍ The cold plunge takes some getting used to but your body will thank you for it later.

I wanted to try something new in West Hollywood area so I decided give a shot to LIV, the experience overall is great, The rooms are pretty spacious are private..there is a tv and Apple Remote to watch stuff while in the sauna, the guy in the front is friendly and easy going...the only cons I would say is the parking situation as there is only street parking and a few reserved spots in the back, but overall I enjoyed my experience and will probably come back! Cheers

I've continued to go because they opened one so close to where I live, I love being able to walk two blocks to get treatments. But unfortunately, it just seems as though I'm too often having issues. I have a few other Med Spas I go to, they treat me great, I get my treatments, we have friendly chatter, and I walk out with this huge glow of self-love. I believe at Medspas it's not just about the treatments you receive, it's about how you feel in the process. It's about the whole experience of doing something beautiful for yourself, bettering your health, and being treated with lovely vibes as well. You should leave feeling good inside out. But too many times I have walked out of Pause feeling crappy or stressed. Some days are amazing. But other days an employee is rude or snooty, or their systems are either not well organized, or very confusing for their employees. A couple of times I've been told that I have credits on my account, just to be told that I don't later. It just feels like when I walk into Pause, I don't know what to expect. Will I get one of their beautiful, vibrant associates...or one with a bad attitude? Will the information in the system be correct and documented in a way that the employee can understand, and give me accurate information? Will my card be charged in error? Ya never know. Today I got a rude nurse, and it felt like my final straw. A really sweet, enthusiastic employee offered me tea. I figured it's because I would have to wait a while for the nurse. The nurse comes out two minutes later and literally scolded me in front of the whole lobby about having tea. She says loudly and indiscreetly "The tea is only for customers getting IVs and because you're getting shots you're not supposed to get tea, but I'll let it go this time" Her demeanor while delivering this news was not friendly at all. But this, I was going to let slide, although it was embarrassing. She really could have come over to me and talk to me individually about that, if it was even that important... I mean, I can have tea, coffee, and even snacks at my other med spas no problem. But here I'm clearly violating a major policy. The nurse came back out to give me my shots, I only get them in the arm, so it's absolutely fine to be done in the lobby. I noticed the fluid was a different color since the last time I came. Given that I take a lot of vitamin shots, peptides, and supplements, my doctors like to keep up with exactly what I'm taking. I've been advised to give my docs the name and milligrams of my vitamin shots and Peptides, or in some cases, even stay clear of certain supplements/injections. Over the years, the formulations at Pause have varied. Sometimes the "Trim "will have just the MIC formulation or other times it's had B6, B12, or L-Carnitine. No prior nurse has ever had a problem sharing this information with me when I asked. Naturally, it's going into my body, it seems only logical. I might want to know what it is. I asked the nurse if she could show me the bottle so I would know exactly what I was taking. I wanted to give this information to my doctor. Rudely, she told me "We're not allowed to show the bottle.", and proceeded to walk away. As she was walking, I said,"Can you please tell me what's in the formulation then?"....SHE VISIBLY AND LOUDLY BECAME EXTREMELY ANNOYED. SHE LET OUT A HUGE HUFF, ROLLED HER EYES, AND THREW HER HEAD BACK IN FRUSTRATION. Once again, this is in the lobby in front of others. I said "Sorry to make you so mad, I just need to know what I'm putting in my body." I went on to explain to her (and unfortunately everyone witnessing in the lobby) that my doctors have requested that I keep them updated on what I'm taking, and how many milligrams. At that point, she walks to get the bottle, comes back with it and tells me what's in it. But I really shouldn't have had to explain all of that. I have a right to know what I'm taking. And the name "Trim" tells me nothing. At this point, my experience was already completely ruined. I wouldn't be writing this if this was the first time that something like this has happened. But it's not. And sadly, after her outward annoyance, it seemed to have a domino effect on other employees that day, they started then behaving differently toward me. As I mentioned earlier, I left feeling like crap. The other Med spas and biohacking clinics I go to, treat you like royalty. I'm really tired of having such an unpredictable experience at Pause.

Minus 1 star for now, as unfortunately the infrared lights were not working in my sauna when I visited. The sauna was still perfectly hot, just no lights.

And the owner, Lin, is so sweet and down-to-earth. You can tell she's poured so much heart into this place. If you're even thinking about trying cold plunge or anything wellness-related, Pure Recovery is the spot. I'm so grateful I found it!
