Sycamore Mineral Springs Resort is in the business of relaxation. Located in the scenic hills of San Luis Obispo, Calif., the resort is one of the first true American spas that was created with a commitment to integrating the full spectrum of healing arts, which include exercise, nutrition, massage and skin care, meditation and psychodynamic therapies. The waters at Sycamore Mineral Springs Resort are rich with sulfur compounds and trace minerals that assist healing in a variety of ways. Inhalation of the sulfur is soothing to the respiratory system and calming to the skin, as well as being conducive to joint-related pain disorders. The resort offers guests activities, such as walking and hiking, pools and retreats. Sycamore Mineral Springs provides multiple lodging options and dining at Gardens of Avila.
