One of the most-anticipated spas in the world has been unveiled by the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians located atop the Tribe’s sacred hot mineral spring, adjacent to Agua Caliente Casino Palm Springs in downtown Palm Springs, Calif.

“The opening of The Spa at Séc-he is a milestone our Tribe will not soon forget, and will pass down through the generations,” said Chairman Reid D. Milanovich of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians. “We are honored to share some of our most precious rituals with the world. While an emphasis on healing helped our Tribe thrive throughout the years, so has the connection to the body, mind, and spirit – all things you will be enveloped in at The Spa at Séc-he.”
