Review:

When you are touring Napa Valley, stop at Indian Springs in Calistoga which specializes in mud bath treatment services. Immerse yourself in warm black mud, produced by mixing 100% hand-sifted Indian Springs volcanic ash with hot mineral water. The mud bath soothes muscle aches, increases blood circulation and exfoliates the skin. Before and after your treatment, relax next to the Olympic-size mineral pool, open from spring through fall. In addition to the mud treatment, Indian Springs offers an array of massage services, including basic Swedish massage, deep tissue, Acupressure and pregnancy massage. And best of all, you can combine a relaxing mud bath with a massage during your visit. The Lodge has been completely renovated, offering 24 guest rooms with private patios. (707-942-4913).

Alternatively, book the Couple's Suite at Hotel Healdsburg in California's wine country which has its own private garden, spacious soaking tub for two, and two side-by-side massage tables where you can get pampered in style. Floor-to-ceiling plantation shutters can be closed during the treatment and opened again so that you can walk into the private garden.
