Within the Napa Valley area there are more than 26 spas, all of which take advantage of this world-famous region of wine and food. Some of these spas are charming independent day spas, while others are located within super-luxe resorts. One popular way in which Napa Valley spas take advantage of their surroundings is through vinotherapy spa treatments, which incorporate wines, grape seeds and grapeseed oils taken from surrounding wineries for a nourishing, soothing treatment. Another area feature unique to the Napa spa scene are the Calistoga mud baths, which utilize volcanic ash from the Valley’s Mount St. Helena and the area’s natural mineral waters, which are rumored to have healing qualities.

Special packages are offered throughout the year by Napa Valley spas and resorts, which include offerings like special midweek pricing on spas treatments and accommodations, wine tastings and culinary specials from the mouth-watering spa menus.
