About Safronya Retreat

A wellness center more than a spa, this elegant San Rafael vestibule will make you want to walk inside and never leave. Safronya is based on the wellness principles of Ayurveda, a 5000- year old practice that infuses the center's seasonal cooking classes, detox programs, health consultations, and luscious treatments -- from four-handed Abhyanga massage to facials made from yummy ingredients like apple and neem. -- Nirmala Nataraj
