Encantado - is the first-ever full-service luxury resort to grace New Mexico's spiritual epicenter, featuring an innovative selection of spa and wellness services that honor healing traditions indigenous to the region.

Refreshingly, unlike many a spa we could mention that force guests to inhale 24/7 its inspid lavender air - Encantado's 10,000-square-foot spa incorporates the outdoors with pools, fountains, courtyards, and outdoor garden soaking tubs and showers set in the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. With 15 treatment rooms and suites, the healing treatments offered at The Spa at Encantado include massage and bodywork, Ayurvedic rituals, Asian medicine traditions, regionally inspired treatments and Western herbalism featuring organically grown local herbs.

The Spa at Encantado’s signature treatment is, "The Encantado Purification Ritual", which draws inspiration from the nearby Ojo Caliente Springs offering a combination of four different healing minerals. Their menu also features a results-oriented skincare program utilizing the Naturopathica line of botanical-based products. The spa is also the first spa to offer Naturopathica facials featuring the "Ultra", a sophisticated aesthetic system that uses micro-currents to amplify the skin’s natural production of elasticity and collagen, soften deep lines, lift skin and stimulate circulation.

The best part however, is being able to credit your new pink cheeks to the mountain air.
