After a long day of skiing, hiking or sightseeing, allow yourself some relaxation at one of the several world-class health spas in Santa Fe. If you need to work off some of your restaurant indulgences and just want a vigorous exercise, visit one of the nearby recreation centers, yoga and dance studios.
Spas
There are an amble number of quality health spas from which to choose while visiting Santa Fe. Probably the best known and the granddaddy of them all is Ten Thousand Waves, a Japanese influenced spa set at the base of the Sangre de Cristo mountain range. Ten Thousand Waves features onsen inspired communal and private outdoor baths, a variety of massages, facials, and spa treatments. Our past guests have enjoyed the Premium Private bath, Thai Massage, and Nose To Toes treatment.
Within a short walking distance from both of our inns is Absolute Nirvana. Surrounded by the gardens of the MadelineInn, this spa offers authentic Balinese spa treatments, hot stone massages, deluxe packages, and a variety of rejuvenating facials. You might want to try the “Heaven on Earth” deluxe treatment.
In addition to expert massages and spa treatments, the Downtown Day Spa also features reiki, chakra treatments, and hypnotherapy. We recommend the Navajo Hot Stones Massage and the Calming Facial. Located just south of downtown, Body Of Santa Fe is where the locals go for their pampering. Therapists are experienced in a variety of modalities, including Rolfing, polarity, and cranial sacral. A suggested treatment is the Energy Balancing Massage with Peppermint Reflexology add-on.
If you are seeking a spa experience in a more natural and rustic setting, drive a little and visit Ojo Caliente Mineral Springs. This secluded spa resort is located just one hour north of Santa Fe. Ojo is known for its different types of mineral springs; including lithia, arsenic, soda, and iron pools. You might try a long soak in all of their pools.
