A day at the spa can refresh and reenergize. On these wet days of late, doesn’t an afternoon of pampering sound like a ray of sunshine? If splurging on a massage makes you feel a little guilty, we've got a remedy for that--find the spa that's donating proceeds to the victims in Japan.

For your convenience, we’ve put together a list of Cupertino’s spas.

It’s not every day you can be philanthropic and self-indulgent at the same time. But

As such, the spa is donating proceeds from its Fire and Ice Facial to the American Red Cross to benefit the victims of the Japan earthquake and tsunami. Buy a gift card for everyone you know and support those in need.
