Hot Mineral Spring Story

In the early 21st century, it became clear that the 1950s infrastructure built to protect the spring would need to be replaced. In 2015, Agua Caliente Tribal Council decided to embark on a major retrofit of the steel collection ring over the top of the hot mineral spring to preserve the integrity of the naturally occurring hot spring. Above-ground structures were removed and underground supports and the steel collection ring were carefully replaced. In May 2018, the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians broke ground on the modern-day development of the Agua Caliente Cultural Plaza, which includes the Agua Caliente Cultural Museum, The Spa at Séc-he, the Oasis Trail and Gathering Plaza. The new Cultural Plaza celebrates the hot mineral spring and the Tribe’s history, culture, traditions and modern-day life, ushering in a new era of luxury, tranquility and healing.

MINERAL BATH

The custom mineral baths fill with pure thermal mineral springs rich in mineral content to soothe muscles and skin, hydrate, and assist joints. This private bath is made just for you to soak in the sacred waters. Gentle bubbling jets create the sound of boiling water like the name Séc-he.

Flotation uses high concentrations of Epsom salts in a tank to allow your body to float on the dense waters. With minimal stimulation of light, sounds, gravity, and temperature it allows the mind to relax and reset. Supporting creativity, reducing pain in muscle and joints as well as decreasing stress by absorbing magnesium into the skin for a calming effect.

The Gharieni Quartz bed uses ground quartz and amber heated on the massage table to create a unique user experience and enhance the service. While lying on the treatment table your body is contoured by the grains, a rolling air cushion gently stretches the back and the table tilts back and forth throughout to shift the body. The table is also used with water cells to create the sense of massage on a water bed unique to our signature cupping water massage.
