Den Mother takes the pressure off — quite literally, pun intended
A really unique wellness spot in Venice. You can have your massage in a private room or outside in the backyard — I went for the latter and loved it. Head, shoulders and feet, fresh air, and a peaceful setting made for a seriously relaxing experience.

I got the Swedish massage with Odin and it was so great! She was very sweet and asked me a few times how it’s feeling and the level of pressure! Den mother is such a gem in the neighborhood and the design is bohemian and very thoughtful! Every corner has been thoughtfully designed. Also, it’s such a great and peaceful place to go get tea in the garden. I highly recommend 🌞🪄

A very incredible and zen atmosphere! I went twice during my visit to LA and it was worth it go to more than once. I did the garden massage the first day with light bites from Butcher's Daughter next door (VERY good vegetarian food); and came back the next day for a deep tissue full body massage. Anthony was my masseuse both days and was excellent. Worth a visit!
