Located inside Pura Vida Fitness, one of the swankiest workout facilities in Denver, SpaVital spares no luxury. With each service booked, guests receive a free, full-day pass to the fitness club, including yoga classes and time to relax in their steam rooms and whirlpools while sipping tea from Denver-based Teakoe and Company. “We offer two signature services. The Vital 80-minute, Swedish-style, deep-tissue, pressure massage is combined with aromatherapy in addition to a hand and foot scrub at the end to restore energy,” says Spa Director Noel Cockrel. “Or try the Head-to-Toe Signature Facial designed to hydrate, correct, and clarify the skin, complemented with a hot oil scalp massage and peppermint foot scrub.” Don’t be surprised to run into local media, arts, sports, and political figures.

These are all high end, high dollar spas. For a lower cost, more laid back and enjoyable time, consider
http://www.cottonwood-hot-springs.com/
http://www.orvishotsprings.com/
http://www.joyfuljourneyhotsprings.com/

All offer excellent clean pools and great massage and therapy services. Plus, the people there are real instead of being stuck up rich snobs.

Thank you for the excellent links! I've been to Cottonwood but none of the others. Will certainly try when I can!
