Salt of the Earth Spa

“The combination of the historic healing powers of water and salt are infused into the design intent of the spa.”

Overview

As part of a boutique adventure hotel project located in the high desert of the Southwest, the concept and name for the Salt of the Earth Spa celebrates the ancient history of the local desert lands once filled with oceanic waters, which transformed into arid basins of evaporated salt beds. These ancient salt beds became a significant mineral resource for early indigenous people to survive and thrive in the challenging barren environment.

In truth, frequenting a spa for health, wellness, relaxation and rejuvenation has been practiced by humans for thousands of years, and the ancient Greek physician Hippocrates mentions the healing power of salt in his writings from 2,400 years ago. The combination of the historic healing powers of water and salt are infused into the design intent of the spa.
