<p>Soak in Colorado’s natural resources and feel as fresh as our mountain air without leaving the spa.</p>
<h2>Alpine Retreat at <a href="/resort-day-spas/rockresorts-spa-arrabelle-vail-square">RockResorts Spa at The Arrabelle at Vail Square</a></h2>
<p>A trek through Colorado's backcountry — be it a hike, mountain-bike adventure or horseback trailride — is likely to leave you with a few sore muscles. The Arrabelle will heal those wounded warriors with this dry brush scrub, warm wrap and massage designed to draw out toxins and increase circulation, all of which speed up the healing process to get you back on the mountain tomorrow. Many of the spa's treatments are inspired by <a href="/cities-and-towns/vail">Vail</a>'s alpine-valley locale and incorporate natural ingredients and aromas from the area, including mountain juniper, lavender, white pine and cedar.</p>
<h2>Peak Custom Wellness Remedy Massage at <a href="/hotel/peaks-resort-spa">The Peaks Resort &amp; Golden Door Spa</a> in <a href="/cities-and-towns/Telluride">Telluride</a></h2>
<p>This customized therapeutic massage tends to tired muscles while leaving skin feeling nourished and replenished after a day of alpine playtime outdoors. You can soothe your overstressed nervous system, too, with an aromatherapy scent of your choice.</p>
<h2><a href="/hot-spring/springs-resort-spa">The Springs Resort's</a> Aqua Mineral Pool Therapy in <a href="http://www.colorado.com/pagosa-springs-channel">Pagosa Springs</a></h2>
<p>The purported curative powers of the Great Pagosa Hot Springs were so highly valued that Native Americans battled to claim ownership. Today, visitors can experience for themselves what makes the springs so captivating at The Springs Resort, which is situated along the banks of the San Juan River. Immerse yourself in romantic secluded pools filled with mineral-rich waters or enjoy family-friendly swimming areas.</p>
<h2>Hot Stone Massage at <a href="/hotel/brown-palace-hotel-and-spa">The Brown Palace Hotel</a> in <a href="/cities-and-towns/Denver">Denver</a></h2>
<p>The legendary, historic Brown Palace Hotel and Spa lies in the heart of downtown Denver. Inside the elegant brick hotel, the spa offers an escape from the rush of the city with calming treatments that take inspiration from its Colorado setting. Flat river rocks, polished by years of the mighty Colorado River’s constant flow, gently smooth away your tension with the blending of warm and cool sensations, leaving you feeling as if you are floating down a stream of repose and renewal.</p>
<h2>Hydrotherapy at <a href="/resort/broadmoor">The Broadmoor Spa</a> in <a href="/cities-and-towns/Colorado-Springs">Colorado Springs</a></h2>
<p>This hydrotherapy treatment is designed to reproduce the sensation of a warm waterfall, gently cascading over your body, with the help of 18 shower heads. Follow the shower with a deeply relaxing soak — select from mineral salts, luxurious oils or soothing coconut milk at the time of service.</p>
