Most Americans are worried that holiday stress could affect their health according to the American Psychological Association. To combat stress during the holidays the recommendation is to take time to relax and enjoy the season. The Napa Valley's Calistoga Oasis Spa has developed two spa specials to provide the pleasurable, relaxing activities recommended as a major component to a stress-free holiday.

Each of the elements of the two holiday inspired specials were chosen for their symbolic meaning and their therapeutic nature. Combined with the centuries old medicinal treatments of mud, hydrotherapy and healing touch, the treatments are ideal for extending the benefits of personal spa breaks scattered throughout the holiday season.

The Winter Solstice Special includes a mud bath, mineral bath with ginger, almond and cinnamon essential oils and the celestial aromatherapy massage. It was created to assist the entire body to cleanse and detoxify from holiday period excesses, as individual muscles and joints are soothed and comforted. The Glowing Holiday Special includes a hydrotherapy mineral bath with orange, cinnamon and clove essential oils, a mud bath and a holiday scented aromatherapy massage. The treatment includes an additional 25-minute foot and hand massage to revive feet weary from shopping and hands tired from wrapping and assembling presents. The entire treatment was developed as a necessary relaxation break that prepares the body and mind to healthfully enjoy holiday parties. Both treatments include a warm festive beverage upon arrival at the spa and a special holiday spa gift that will help extend the benefits of the experience.

The treatments, developed by a registered nurse and a professional massage therapist, are available through the end of the year at the Calistoga Oasis Spa. Located at 1300 Washington Street in Calistoga, the spa is known for retaining the highest quality spa therapists in the area and as one of only two Calistoga spas that specializes in providing couples with adjoining mineral and mud baths.
