Just beyond the edges of Denver’s bustling, high-energy technical district, a new spa offers a haven of tranquility and rejuvenation. Soothing wood tones and handmade artwork reflecting the nearby Rocky Mountains set the mood at The Spa at The Inverness, where eighty-minute signature treatments have been built around the themes of escape and renewal. During the Devote and Detox, purifying Moroccan mint tea silt is applied to the body, followed by a full-body scrub with lemon coffee blossoms. The treatment ends with tangerine fig butter cream being massaged into the skin. The Let Go therapy begins with a bamboo scrub to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. Next, rose camellia plum water is misted over the body, before a rich concoction of plum blossom silk cream is smoothed over the skin for a deeply moisturizing experience. The spa features Eminence, the handmade, organic skincare line from Hungary, and a full range of facials, manicures, pedicures, and body treatments. Arrive early enough for a relaxing steam bath, and schedule your treatments to allow for a leisurely dinner at Baca, where the scintillating menu includes Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Wild Mushrooms, Brussels Sprout Leaves & Queso De Mana Tuile; Corn Flour Crusted Black Cod served with New Potatoes with Saffron, Tomato, & Pine Nuts; and an array of decadent desserts, all with a Western flair. Don’t miss the Spiced Black Tea Caramel Custard with Sherry Mascerated Winter Melon, or the Churros and Chocolate – a trio of chocolate treats including White Chocolate with Honey Lavender. Nourishment for body and soul. For more information call (303) 397-7808 or visit www.InvernessSpa.com
