Eureka Springs was founded by “health seekers”. Legend has it that Native Americans of the Osage discovered therapeutic relaxation and spiritual connectivity here from the ‘healing waters’ of our natural springs, the pure mountain air and locally grown and harvested foods. Word travelled fast that Eureka was the “Road to Health”. People from all over flocked to the town creating one of America’s most popular resort destinations - the first of its kind in the Midwest and Midsouth.
Rest, relax and rejuvenate by scheduling a spa treatment by one of our many professional health practitioners that combine new technology and techniques with traditional massage. Let off some steam by taking a steam or sauna. Go a bit deeper with aromatherapy, acupressure, acupuncture, facials, primordial sound medication, reflexology or just good ole exercise.
As a natural health conscious community, we are proud of our local Famers Market, natural food stores and herbal apothecaries and pharmacies.
And remember, this is not only good for you, it feels good too! A spa visit is a great way to release stress and it’s a wonderful way for couples to reconnect by enjoying a couple’s massage.
