Newest Spa Montage is Alpine-Inspired Oasis at Montage Deer Valley Opening December 2010

35,000-Square-Feet of On-Mountain Wellness, with 29 Treatment Rooms, Couples’ Serenity Suite, Mosaic-Tiled Lap Pool, Outdoor Spa Deck, Movement Studio, Kim Vo Salon & More

PARK CITY, UTAH – (November 15, 2010) – The newest Spa Montage is the alpine-inspired sanctuary opening December 9 at Montage Deer Valley, the lodge-style resort with true ski-in, ski-out access to Deer Valley, just named North America’s #1 ski resort for the fourth straight year by the readers of SKI magazine.

The 35,000-square-foot spa is designed to offer the ideal wellness experience before or after an invigorating day of skiing, mountain biking or hiking. As with the other Montage Hotels & Resorts’ spas in Laguna Beach and Beverly Hills, Spa Montage at Montage Deer Valley is dedicated to providing a complete therapeutic experience by creating an ongoing relationship between the guest and therapist through its Surrender program and complimentary 30-minute Art of Spa regimen.

With a focus on holistic principles and noninvasive techniques, spa therapists are carefully trained to develop customized treatments for each and every guest. However, whereas Spa Montage Laguna Beach centers therapy around the elements of water and Spa Montage Beverly Hills focuses on its healing “from the gardens,” Spa Montage Deer Valley relies on the pharmacopeia from the rugged alpine terrain that has provided therapies stretching from the time of native Ute Indian tribes to today’s mountain enthusiasts. The spa’s mantra is “from powerful lands comes powerful healing.”

Experiences at the mid-mountain Spa Montage include:

An innovative menu of alpine-inspired facials, massages and body treatments that incorporate indigenous botanical ingredients; all treatments are customized by intuitive, rigorously trained therapists to meet individual needs and help restore balance and optimal well-being
A series of treatments designed just for men includes options such as ski recovery massage (Après Ease) and custom men’s facials
"The Art of Breath,” an exclusive Montage Deer Valley approach
A full calendar of daily wellness and fitness classes centered around core and strength training, including vibrational recovery to help get skiers back in top shape day after day, and movement studio classes such as yoga, Pilates, high-impact, spinning, and traditional cardio

Signature Treatments

The earth and nature’s alpine bounties play an integral role in the spa's menu of treatments. Water therapies, herbal mineral baths and hydrotherapy restore the mind and body; mud and clays draw out the body's impurities and improve circulation.

These signature Spa Montage elements are complimentary to spa guests:

Herbal refreshing Hydrosols - Refreshing and aromatic, used as revitalizing spritzers throughout the spa
Seasonal Teas, Refreshments and Condiments - Specific to the region and adapted seasonally, offered in the relaxation lounges
The Art of Spa – For enhanced comfort and relaxation, guests are asked to arrive at least 30 minutes before scheduled treatment time to experience the complimentary Art of Spa regimen, including sauna, steam and deluge. The Art of Spa features a variety of water rituals and aromatherapy to release toxins, stabilize the body and stimulate the lymphatic system to optimize the benefits of our other therapies.
Introducing…The Art of Breath – As a prelude to or finale after every therapy, guests are encouraged to focus on calming and balancing. The practice of breath-work enhances systemic functioning, inducing deep relaxation and strengthening the physical and emotional heart. The Art of Breath explores the intimate connection between the nourishing “prana” and the health and well-being of body and mind.

Signature therapies include:

Lithely Limbs - 60 minutes/90 minutes- $170/$230: Experience the liberating energy and free flowing movement that comes with muscles that are eased, toned and stretched. A vigorous, fortifying skin brushing ritual coupled with a temperature contrast foot bath encourages the removal of lactic acids and serves as the decongestive prelude to a therapeutic massage targeting areas of stress and restriction in the back, hips, and lower limbs.
Après Ease - 60 minutes - $170: The perfect medicine after a long, exhilarating day on the slopes. Decompress with the penetrating warmth of nutrient rich, healing mud as it eases physical discomfort and encourages the removal of cellular wastes. Relaxed and renewed, surrender body and mind to an 'intentional' point specific massage designed to revitalize stressed muscles and restore flexibility.
Earthly Matters - 90 minutes - $230: To promote structural alignment and address the body's energy center, begin with a Connected Core Massage then relax into a cocoon of warm herbal clay as you enjoy the deeply relaxing, sedative pleasures of a rejuvenating face and scalp massage. Awake to a stream of warm healing water and the refreshing touch of a cool mitten friction as the flow of fresh oxygen and nutrients leaves you wonderfully relaxed... and utterly restored. Special note: A 60 minute Hot and Cold Stone Massage would be the perfect complement to add to this treatment.
Earth and Water - 90 minutes - $230: Suspended by the hypnotic effects of neutral waters and the purifying essence of sage, relax into the talented, caring hands of a Spa Montage bath master and experience the calming, soothing pleasures of weightless movement as your body is expertly stretched and aligned into a state of deep, restorative relaxation. Follow with a mineralizing, nurturing clay wrap and a ritual of healing crystal quartz facial stones.
Transpiration - 90 minutes - $230: Embracing the essence of all life, this harmonizing experience of organic restorative wellness begins with a warm, mineralizing bath of oxygenated living waters coupled with a stream of cooling, refreshing water to stimulate respiration and clarity. Followed by an invigorating friction scrub to enhance vitality and physical stamina the ritual concludes with a relaxing, rhythmic massage featuring the nutritive and analgesic elements of propolis and Aspen bark extract.
Transfer-ation - 120 minutes - $290: Drawing on the synergistic, healing elements of water, precious metals and aromatic essential oils, embark on a soulful journey of artful bathing and balancing massage. Harnessing the conducting frequencies that carry neural receptor messages from skin to core, the alchemy of water and energetic healing herbs cleanses and purifies in a relaxing bathing ritual of body and mind. In a harmonious and sequenced massage, the synergy of healing silver rods coupled with the vibration frequency of essential oils provoke a response deep in the ancient brain, infusing our elemental nature with positive vibrations as negative energies are dispelled. Applied to the upper realms of the face and head, healing Crystal stones usher in the light.
Yoga Energy Thai - 60 minutes/90 minutes- $170/$230: Two of the spa’s 29 treatment rooms are dedicated to Thai massage, performed on a Thai mat (as opposed to a massage table) to achieve maximum flexibility through time-tested stretching techniques administered by an expert in the modality.
