Mineral Minded - Mineral spas are getting hot again

Mineral spas date back to ancient civilizations and long have people sworn by its all-natural cures for skin diseases, arthritis, digestive disorders and other ailments. But a fast-food society that wanted everything through the pop of a pill made the treatment all but disappear, until recently.

All the way in Iceland, the Blue Lagoon, a geothermal seawater filling a large pool lined with black lava, too almost 400,000 bathers. Meanwhile, in ipscale spas like Terme di Saturnia (www.termedisaturnia.it) in Tuscany pamper the elite with mudpacks and cures, with sulfur-scented warm waters, while up in the Swiss Alps is the Hotel Therme Vals (www.therme-vals.ch).

Using the only thermal spring in Graubunden, the stunning landmark is built from 60,000 stone slabs of Valser quartzite that guests can luxuriate in to rediscover the ancient benefits of bathing in. Different combinations of light and shade, open and enclosed spaces and linear elements make for a highly sensuous and restorative experience. Meanwhile, the sprawling Arkansas Hot Springs National Park opened the Quapaw Bathhouse (www.quapawbaths.com). Colorado is home to the country’s largest mineral springs bath, and it’s Hot Springs Lodge and Pool (www.hotspringspool) in Glenwood Springs is getting a 5.7 million facelift, the Adler Hotel and Imperial Baths in Sharon Springs, New York are also due a revamp.
