If the daily demands of your life have you feeling stressed, know that you’re definitely not alone. In fact, experts say that we are in the midst of a national mental health crisis, with seven in every 10 adults reporting that they have experienced a health impact as a direct result of stress.
Finding ways to cope with daily stressors is important. But giving your mind and body a break and treating yourself to an extra dose of self-care from time to time can also go a long way toward boosting your mental health. And a weekend getaway at spas in Utah is a great way to do just that.
Thinking about planning a weekend visit to spas in Utah like Flanigan’s Resort’s own Deep Canyon Spa? Keep reading to learn a few tips to help you make the most of your stay.
Pack with a Purpose
Planning a weekend getaway at spas in Utah means packing a few different things than you would for a weekend of exploring Zion National Park. You might still want to pack your hiking boots in case you decide to head to the park for the afternoon. But there are a few other things you’ll want to have along to make the most of your relaxing getaway at our Southern Utah resort.
Here are a few items to pack for your weekend getaway at spas in Utah:
- Loose-fitting, comfortable clothing
- A robe for relaxing in your room post-massage
- Your favorite skincare products for showing your skin some love after a facial
- A water bottle to help you stay hydrated
- Flip flops
- A swimsuit for a post-spa session dip in the pool or soak in the hot tub
- A great book
In addition to your suitcase, consider packing a tote bag to take with you to the spa. In it, you can tuck a great book to enjoy or maybe your swimsuit so that you can head straight to the pool or hot tub after your massage.
Don’t Forget to Book Your Spa Treatments in Advance
Beautiful Deep Canyon Spa is just one of the many things that set Flanigan’s Resort apart from other Springdale hotels. While the spa welcomes walk-ins based on availability, if you’re planning a full spa weekend, you’ll want to book your spa treatments in advance. This ensures that you don’t wind up disappointed if last-minute bookings aren’t available. It also allows you to plan out each day’s schedule in advance.
Enjoy the Full Spa Experience with a Spa Package
To help you enjoy the full spa experience, our Southern Utah resort now offers Spa Packages. These packages are expertly designed to combine complementary facial and beauty treatments, therapies, massages, outdoor activities, and more to help you make the most of your visit to Deep Canyon Spa.
Take for instance the Tranquil Emerald Sky Package. You’ll start your day with an e-bike ride through Zion National Park, followed by a 90-minute Stone Crop Restorative full body wrap and a 60-minute Deep Muscle Relief Massage.
For an even bigger adventure, consider booking the Zion Zen Zone. This package includes a guided full-day hike in The Narrows, as well as a 90-minute Ashiatsu Massage, a 60-minute yoga session, and a 60-minute Deep Canyon Signature Facial.
Of course, you don’t need to book a Spa Package to turn your visit to the spa into a full-day or weekend affair. Instead, follow up a morning massage with a walk through our Hilltop Labyrinth, a private yoga session, or a delicious meal at Spotted Dog.
Combine Your Spa Weekend With a Yoga Retreat
If you’re looking to take your rejuvenation and relaxation to the next level, consider combining your weekend at spas in Utah with a restorative yoga retreat. Flanigan’s Resort hosts a variety of yoga and meditative events and retreats throughout the year. These events are perfect for jumpstarting a new routine or for helping you take a break from your busy, stressful day-to-day life to show your body and mind a little self-love.
On July 27, 2023, Flanigan’s Resort will host the Zion Integrative Living Retreat. This four-day retreat combines breathwork sessions with cold exposure therapy, yoga, sound bath therapy, and consciousness exercises. There’s also a half-day canyoneering trip with the potential for an outdoor cold therapy session.
Scheduled free time sessions are perfect for scheduling a relaxing massage or rejuvenating facial at Deep Canyon Spa. The retreat runs from July 27 to 30 and costs $1,499 per person. Lodging is not included, but participants can add their choice of luxurious room, suite, or villa at Flanigan’s Resort to their booking.
