But of course the Signature Treatment at this modern, airy spa contains Canadian Maple Syrup! Mixed with brown sugar, it forms a luscious body scrub. After your exfoliation and rain shower, you’ll be slathered in a warm clay and algae body wrap, and have an Argan oil scalp massage and conditioning treatment. The nurturing concludes with a full-body massage using organic body butter. Delish.

With two locations in Big Sky, one at the Huntley Lodge at Mountain Village and the other at the Moonlight Lodge, the Solace Spa is Big Sky's best bet for pampering. Set yourself up for high-elevation activities with the Altitude Adjustment Massage, a combination of Swedish, Craniosacral, and Neuromuscular disciplines designed to increase circulation and minimize headaches.

For some reason, Sun Valley properties are lacking in the spa department (that will change when the Sun Valley Lodge renovation is completed in 2015). Local hotels instead refer guests to this tony health club, which has nine treatment rooms. Go for a post-sweat sesh Swedish or hot stone massage. There’s also yoga, a lap pool, and a huge outdoor saltwater hot tub with views of Mt. Baldy. Tip: Stay at the top-notch Knob Hill Inn in Ketchum, and they’ll make all the arrangements and provide transportation. Win, win.

In this most luxurious of hotels lies a 35,000-square-foot holistic retreat that boasts a Grecian-influenced indoor pool and state-of-the-art fitness center. Part of the appeal is the view of the ski slopes and Wasatch Range: there are six dedicated Mountain View treatment rooms (be sure to ask when booking, as not all have a view). Service and attention to detail excel, even the reception area is stocked with an apothecary’s worth of beauty products. The Core Balancing Treatment is a 90-minute über-indulgence that begins with a soothing abdominal “core” massage, and an application of herbal-infused clay. You’ll then be wrapped in a reflective blanket and given a facial massage and scalp treatment, followed by a warm-and-cold Vichy contrast shower and body-brushing. The session ends with the application of a hydrating lotion or oil. Tip: Schedule late in the day, and plan to move no farther than your room the remainder of the night. Relaxation like this doesn’t come cheap, but it’s worth every penny.

This St. Regis-branded spa is every bit as swank as you’d expect for Deer Valley (and there’s 14,000 square feet of it, not counting the adjacent, 3,000-square-foot Athletic Club), with warm, attentive service to match. The soothing lounge features creamy neutral tones and a river rock-lined pool; the hot tub, with its marbled walls and mosaic-backed waterfall has almost the feel of a Turkish bath. The Remède Customized Massage (60 or 90 minutes) provides your choice of essential oils and technique (Curbed Ski choose a combination of Swedish and deep tissue to take the tension out of our calves after a morning of cross-country skiing). A scalp massage and paraffin foot treatment were included in the treatment; all together, we left feeling not just human, but rejuvenated.

Feeling hedonistic and perhaps, a bit parched? The signature Champagne and Chocolate Truffle Decadence Body Facial is exactly that: decadent. After a thorough exfoliation with a champagne oil and brown sugar scrub, you’ll be slathered in a warm, hydrating chocolate mask. While you’re marinating, you’ll enjoy a scalp and foot massage. Hop in the rain shower, then submit to a 30-minute massage with a heavenly, brownie-batter-scented chocolate lotion that will leave you soft, smooth, and enveloped in a cloud of anti-oxidant-and-endorphin-stimulated serotonin for the remainder of the day. Pre-treatment, be sure to take advantage of the steam room, then rev up your circulation in the beguiling, well-liked cold/hot tubs (bring a swimsuit for the spa's co-ed grotto pool). There's also a separate oxygen lounge if you're feeling the effects of the altitude. Note that the spa will be undergoing renovations this spring; call in advance for appointments.

For over 145 years, Ojo’s geothermal waters (sulfur-free and high in lithia, iron, soda, and arsenic) and rich mud have provided a panacea to white folk, but the ancient Tewa people were indulging thousands of years ago. Three buildings on the property are on the National Registry of Historic Places, including the bathhouse. Today, there are elegant, adobe accommodations for those who decide to make an overnight pilgrimage, although Ojo is just 45 minutes from Taos. The spa itself is funky and rustic, with outdoor mineral pools (swimsuit required, folks), private pools with their own kiva, and treatments featuring indigenous ingredients, like the Blue Corn & Prickly Pear Salt Scrub.
