About

Spa 520 describes its goal as bringing beauty, wellness, advanced aesthetics and community together in one place. The business is locally owned and sits in the historic downtown core of Placerville, and it says it supports other local businesses, professionals, artisans and entrepreneurs.

Staff begin by asking about a client's concerns, lifestyle and goals before suggesting a service or product, and the business says it does not steer every client toward the same treatment. The spa says it keeps up with new technologies, treatment methods and skincare products that have clinical support.

Facial options range from a short introductory facial suited to younger skin, which comes with home-care guidance, to European facials, HydraFacials, dermaplaning, chemical peels, nano needling and the PDRN Mermaid facial. Under advanced aesthetics, the menu offers Tixel, a treatment that applies measured heat to the skin in a pattern of small, separate spots, and Botox appointments of about 30 minutes.

Massage options include Swedish and deep tissue sessions in 60 and 90 minute lengths. Couples massage is booked by phone, as are customized packages and group visits. Hot stones and facial red light therapy can be added to many appointments. Red light and infrared options include a full-body red and near-infrared light mat and an infrared sauna session, and the spa encourages guests to hydrate before and after the sauna.

The boutique carries professional skincare lines and sells them in person only, not through an online store. Gift cards can be bought online in set amounts or a custom amount and never expire. The spa also hosts community wellness events and guest speakers on wellness, education and connection.

The spa tailors recommendations to each client's concerns, lifestyle and goals rather than offering one standard treatment, and it says it adopts new technologies and clinically supported products.

The spa describes its setting as warm and approachable, with a relaxed pace that is not rushed or overly clinical.
