White Rabbit Day Spa

White Rabbit Day Spa sits on Adams Ave in San Diego's Mid-City area, built around a storybook theme that runs through murals, mossy mushroom-covered walls and whimsical decor inspired by Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The spa opened in 2014 and is run by founder Kristina, an esthetician with 18 years in the field who built her approach around treating both visible skin issues and their underlying causes.

Treatments center on facials, including a signature facial, an "un-Birthday" facial, microdermabrasion and an oxygen facial, along with massage, manicures and pedicures. Estheticians on staff, including Kelsey and Adriana, work with clean, environmentally conscious product lines and spend time on skincare education and personalized recommendations rather than rushing clients through a set menu.

The spa is open seven days a week from 10am to 7pm. It's a walk-in-friendly spot but reservations are recommended, and bookings with Kristina in particular tend to fill up. Pricing falls in the moderate range for the area. The space is adults-only and works well for solo visits, whether that's a regular facial appointment or a one-off treat for a birthday or Mother's Day.

Digital gift cards are available for purchase online, either sent directly to a recipient for a chosen date and time or emailed to the buyer to print at home. The spa is located at 3242 Adams Ave and can be reached by phone for scheduling or questions about specific treatments.
