Medi-Spas
16260 Ventura Blvd., Penthouse (Suite 830) Encino
(818) 906-5333
In her world, owner Rashel Pouri rubs shoulders
with the likes of Hillary Clinton, Felicity Huffman,
Vivica Fox and Anne Heche. Photos of the social whirl proudly
line the walls of her penthouse spa in Encino where dark moody
walls, sitar music and water fountains put you at immediate ease.
To some, the iconic faces may feel incongruous to the ‘new
age’ ambiance but here they work, as if letting you know
that their secrets will be soon be yours.
After being given some green tea and changing
into an incredibly plush robe and sandals, you are whisked away
into one of the four treatment rooms, the sound of water and music
following wherever you go. While this is a medical spa of sorts
(it shares the floor with a surgical centre where treatments like
breast augmentation and liposuction are available), enough care
has been taken not to make it feel too sterile or clinical. High
tech equipment stands at ease and side-by-side meditating Buddhas
and fruit platters.
The Gentleman’s Facial is combined with
an organic enzyme peel (particularly beneficial to sensitive skin
types) and their popular Oxygen therapy. Mayra ministers the facial
with excellent technique and starts the ritual with a multi-vitamin
hand treatment with warm mittens. After the initial facial cleansing
and steaming, a delicious pineapple enzyme scrub starts the exfoliation
process and is followed with virtually painless extractions. A
back and shoulder massage helps you float further away from your
stress. Finally, a wand emitting a cool serum and oxygen mist
is run over the visage and the effects are immediate in reducing
fine lines and wrinkles. The oxygen acts a carrier for the precious
vitamins and antioxidants that penetrate the cellular level so
that healing is enhanced. This is especially beneficial to smokers
and those who have seen extensive sun exposure.
Needless to say, the oxygen therapy is particularly
popular with the instant-gratification types who want a quick
lift before a special night out. Just don’t wait until the
last moment to make a reservation!

EYE ON CALABASAS—Rashel Pouri introduces Sen. Hillary Clinton
at a recent fundraiser which Pouri helped organize. The Senator
expressed interest in the city’s innovative solutions to
local problems, according to Mayor Barry Groveman, who had the
opportunity to chat with the former first lady.
U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton (DNew York) visited Calabasas recently
on a fundraising campaign hosted by Calabasas resident Rashel
Pouri, who’s been friends with Clinton for about eight years.
Pouri, who operates a number of businesses including
a fund-raising organization for children surviving war in the
Middle East, helped organize the Clinton visit.
Clinton and her supporters are looking not just
at the Senate, but beyond.
“I am—and a lot of other people
are—hoping she’ll run for president and I’m
sure she will,” Pouri said.
Clinton was elected to the U.S. Senate in November
2000 following her husband’s two terms as president. Hillary
Clinton will be up for re-election to the Senate in November 2006.
Calabasas, which has received growing recognition
as a suburban headquarters for Southern California’s entertainment
industry, is also known as a little city with big ideas, said
Mayor Barry Groveman.
The city also is home to a large number of Democratic
supporters.
“I was able to have a nice conversation
with Sen. Clinton,” Groveman said. “She was very interested
in Calabasas and particularly interested in how Calabasas, as
a small city, approached typical problems like traffic congestion
and other complex transportation issues plaguing cities all over
the country.
“She was fascinated with some of the innovative
ideas we’re implementing,” Groveman said.
Pouri suggested that the Clintons might be looking
for property in Calabasas.
“ ( C l i n t o n ) loved my house,”
Pouri said.
Clinton will be coming back to Calabasas in
June as her campaign builds momentum, according to Pouri.
“It’s a great time to be mayor of
Calabasas,” Groveman said. “We’re blessed with
terrific resources, great open space, great vistas and very influential
residents, all within proximity of Los Angeles. I told the Senator
she was visiting the ‘last frontier’ and gave her
a symbol of Calabasas to take back to Washington to remind her
of hope and tranquility next time she felt the pressures of the
big city. I sense she will be back often.”
Clinton was known as a serious-minded, activist
first lady. Her staunch support of children’s issues and
women’s rights gained her widespread recognition. But she
also chaired the ill-fated Task Force on National Health Care
Reform.
She’s been mentioned as a possible
candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008.
