We’ve got two words to describe the Nordic Spa: alpine sanctuary. Sounds pretty good, hey? From the massage services to the Eucalyptus steam cabin to the state-of-the-art saunas, this place has the whole relaxation game down pat.

Where: 1 Centennial Dr, Kananaskis

Solara Resort & Spa

The award-winning Solara Resort is another great place to treat yourself. It’s luxurious, warm, and nestled right in the mountains, so there’s really no way you could have a bad time. We recommend their cupping treatment to release tension (and for some really B.A. bruises), or the ReVersive Anti-Aging Facial if you want to look extra fresh!

Where: 187 Kananaskis Way, Canmore

Solorzano Spa

Wine down. Solorzano Spa is a unique destination that actually offers Vino therapy in which customers can soak their feet in merlot. They also have traditional massages, a cafe and wine bar, as well as other aesthetic services. Check it out!

Where: 4631 50th Street, Red Deer

Located in Edmonton, the Spa by JW promises to “unclutter your mind and body.” Get a facial scrub, a massage, have a drink and reemerge as a new, more relaxed version of yourself.

Where: 10344 102 Street, Edmonton

Willow Stream Spa

We all know the Fairmont Banff Springs is a good time, but many of us haven’t explored the amazing Willow Stream Spa that is hidden right inside the resort. They have pulsating waterfalls, a mineral pool, and an extensive service menu that will definitely help you detox.

Where: 405 Spray Avenue, Banff

Jasper Fairmont Spa 

Really want to treat yourself? Enjoy a dip in the heated pool (overlooking placid Lac Beauvert), hit the eucalyptus steam room or get a massage by a crackling fire. The Fairmont Spa in Jasper is extra special and super relaxing.

Where: Old Lodge Road Jasper, Alberta, Canada

Serenity Spa 

Need to wind down? Waterton is the place. Here, guests can have a picnic, lay under a tree, grab a drink on the patio or get a massage at the Serenity Spa, which is located at the Bayshore Inn.

Where: Waterton Lakes National Park, 111 Waterton Ave #103, Waterton, AB

From date nights and bad days to bachelorette parties and anniversaries, SKA City Thermal Spa is accessible convenient and super cozy. In addition to massage treatments, facials and a cute waiting room, they’ve also got hydrotherapy – the only of its kind in Calgary!

Where: 638 11 Ave SW, Calgary, AB

Hopefully, one of 8 Alberta spas do the trick! Happy zen-ing, Calgary. We’ve still got a long winter ahead of us.
