Spa Finder Describes Allegria Spa at the Park Hyatt Beaver Creek Resort as follows:

Beaver Creek is a popular spot with ski-vacationing families. Its slopes total 1,805 acres and include both beginner runs and double black diamonds. Park Hyatt Beaver Creek capitalizes on its close proximity to the slopes with skier- and snowboarder-friendly amenities such as a ski valet who stores and dries guests’ equipment as they come off the lift. Guests seeking even more excitement can take a shuttle to Vail, just eight miles away, where additional world-class slopes and Rocky Mountain family adventure can be found.

Camp Hyatt treats children aged three to 12 to outdoor exploration and creative indoor projects during warmer months. Parents and kids can also enjoy a s’mores “happy hour” every evening around the fire pit. In the summertime, badminton, horseshoes, and volleyball games are among the many varieties of friendly competition available.

The hotel’s picturesque setting hosts a wealth of exciting outdoor activities in all weather. Beaver Creek features warm-weather sporting facilities (including a tennis center and a golf club), stables for horseback riding, hiking/rock climbing, and easy access to fly fishing in the Colorado, Eagle, or Roaring Fork rivers. Complimentary fly-fishing clinics are held at the hotel every morning. Besides downhill and cross-country skiing, guests can take advantage of tobogganing, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling on the mountains as well as ice skating at a rink adjacent to the property

Online reviews would support this description.  After visiting several online review sites, I found that the ratings ranged from 4 stars to perfect 5 stars.  Prevention Magazine calls it one of the top 50 eco spas in the USForbes Travel Guide has Alegria Spa as a Star Award Winner in 2011 and 2013.  Spawards lists the spa among top 100 for 2012.

Aztecs Had Steam Rooms, and Their Decendents Still Use the Tamzcal

Aztecs Had Steam Rooms, and Their Decendents Still Use the Tamzcal

Very Little Changed Since the Aztecs Ruled, the Tamazcal Offered the Same Great Steam Room Benefits Then as Now 

Steam baths from the ancient Aztec culture were used to provide physical, mental, and spiritual benefits.  As can be seen from their art, they considered a trip to these tiny steam rooms to be a treat on many levels.

Early photographs show that the tradition was still being practiced 100 or so years ago in primitive areas of Latin America.

Today, the tradition continues with bamboo, stone or tile structures providing the steam room, and hot rocks brought from furnaces or bonfires to provide the steam

Whatever the time, the culture, or the method, the result is the same.  Relaxation, tension relief, spiritual uplift, muscle recovery quickened, olfactory and respiratory system benefits, and more.  The Aztecs like the Northern Europeans, the Romans, and the Australians also recognized the added benefit of using Essential Oils from plants like the Eucalyptus to enhance the entire experience on every level.

Steam Room Plus Eucalyptus Oil in Your Home – Oh Yeah!

Steam Room Plus Eucalyptus Oil in Your Home – Oh Yeah!

Live a Little – Luxury Like This Doesn’t Cost a Lot

I’ve always wanted a home theater.  Room.  You know, the massive TV on the wall, sound system that rocks the foundations, acoustics designed by a master, and chairs that adjust, recline, heat, cool, vibrate, and give me a foot rub.  I have a friend who does these rooms.  $100,000 and up… after the construction. 

But the truth is, I have a great flat screen TV, excellent Bose surround sound, recliner chairs and a massage unit that heats and vibrates.  So, while I can dream of the real thing, I have a “good enough” version.

But a steam room is another thing.  The pleasures and benefits of a good shower are appealing enough, but add in that steam and eucalyptus oil and you might be talking about a slice of what God has planned for us in heaven.

And the really cool thing is that you can modify many existing showers for around $1000, get a full prefab unit for under $2000, do a complete custom job for under $5000, and beat the Ritz for $25,000.  We’ve done the searching for you and pulled together some of our favorites. 

 You may prefer to build in a custom unit using various combinations of tile, wood, glass, or stainless steel.  Many of the less expensive units also have some plastic components.

Multiple shower heads, large baths with jacuzzi jets, and optional dry sauna can add to the total effect.

For me, I want some music in the steam room, so many of the prefab units do include sound systems, and a custom design can easily accommodate any quality of sound system you may like.

You can now enjoy to luxury of eucalyptus oil in a regular shower, too.  Buy our 8 ounce spray bottle of 100% pure pharmaceutical grade eucalyptus oil for you home shower or steam room.

8 Fantastic Reasons to Build a Steam Room in Your Home

8 Fantastic Reasons to Build a Steam Room in Your Home

Steam Rooms Aren’t Just for Gyms and Spas Anymore

You can spend as little as $1000 or as much as $20,000 to create a steam room in your home.  If you’re like me, you want to have a pretty good reason to spend even a $1000.  So why would I spend around a $1000 to add a steam room to my current tub/shower, $2000 or so for a prefab steam room, or $5000 or more for a steam room as part of a built in remodel?  Here’s ten pretty good reasons.

 1) Increase the value of your home — bathroom remodeling projects return an average of 102% on their investment – Generally only kitchen and bathroom home improvement projects return more than they cost.  And 102% might even be conservative.  Turning an old bathroom into a stylish, state-of-the-art bathroom could easily add $25,000 to the value of a $400,000 house, and $50,000 to the value of a $1,500,000 home.   A steam room component alone should add $10,000 to the value of a $400,000 house and $15,000 to the value of a $1,500,000 home.

2)  A home steam room makes you happier —  Being able to hop into a steam room is a simple pleasure that you will enjoy every day of your life.  And you can find surveys that show that the the Swedes and the Finns are some of the happiest folks on earth.  They know the value of steam baths.

3)  Look better — There are some scientific studies showing the benefits of steam that indicate that it’s good for your skin.  One is stress reduction, because stress is proven to cause breakouts.  Another is cleaning out your pores.  Another study, conducted in Italy, indicated that individuals who steam reduced the # of visibly clogged pores by 40% after just 7 steaming sessions in a two week period.

4)  Impress your friends — I’m not sure how much of a benefit this really is, but it’s a fact:  your friends will be impressed (and a bit jealous) when they see that you have a steam room in your house.
So you can make your house better, improve your quality of life, and make money at the same time.

5)  Health benefits – As noted in and earlier post here, studies indicated that steam is very helpful in fighting off colds and reducing symptoms. 

6)  Relief for sore muscles – Of this we have no doubt.  Every coach or physical therapist will recommend heat for some injuries or sore muscle situations.  And if you’ve ever tried steam as a way to speed up the recovery time after heavy use of your muscles, you already knew this.

7)  Sell your house faster – There are a few things that just make a house super appealing.  A built in outdoor bbq for the husband, an amazing modern kitchen for the wife.  A steam bath, especially a steam bath in a beautiful master bath, could tip the scales on your home time after time.

8)  And best of all, add Eucalyptus Oil for Aromatherapy – You can dramatically increase all of the above benefits, plus add even more by adding some pure eucalyptus oil to the steam in your home steam bath.

The Best Friend a Steam Room Ever Had, Eucalyptus Oil, Comes from a Tree that Provides the World with a Long List of Benefits

Everyone loves the scent of eucalyptus oil in the steam room at the local spa or gym.  Many are now finding that they also like to bring it home to their home steam unit or shower.  We know about some of the reported benefits to our skin, olfactory system, respiratory system, and even emotional and spiritual health, but the oil and the tree that creates the oil are amazing on many, many levels.

1.  Biomass is a potential source for generating power around the world.  Biomass can be derived  from renewable, sustainable sources like plants and trees.  While we currently use corn, sugar, and switch grass for biomass applications, better might be fast growing hardwood trees planted and harvested for energy production, but also supplying wood and fiber. 

2.  The eucalyptus tree is one of the fastest growing hardwood trees in the world.  It already represents 8 percent of all planted forests.  Grown in 90 countries, the eucalyptus is easy to grow in many climates.  In 2003, global Eucalyptus pulp demand was 8 million tons and it represented 40 percent of the world’s hardwood pulp market.

3.  Dryland salinity is becoming a serious problem in many parts of the World.   In Australia, almost 50% of the divertible water supply is either undrinkable or marginal because of salinity.   Scientists believe that this may be due to the removal of deep rooted trees to make room for shallow rooted food crops.  The water table moves up, bringing salt that has been in deposit for millennia closer to the surface.  A solution for this has been to plant eucalyptus trees in the farm areas, whose deep roots will then lower the water table.  Early experimentation seems to be showing promising results.

4.  Eucalyptus oils derived from the leaves of some species of eucalyptus provide commercially viable products for cleaning and disinfecting.  The oils are known to be antibacterial and antimicrobial.  Thus eucalyptus oils are used for cleaning virtually any surface and can even be used in the wash.  Great for smelly shoes.

5.  Eucalyptus oils are used in pure form and in combination with other products to produce excellent remedies for colds, flu, dry skin, itchy feet or scalp. 

6.  Essential oils are used in many applications as aromatherapy to sooth the nerves and help with relaxation, either by themselves, or in conjunction with massage, sauna or steam baths. 

7.  There is evidence that merely thinking about the smell of eucalyptus may be helpful in arresting cravings for chocolate or cigarettes.  Good idea for the cigarettes.  Leave my chocolate cravings alone.

8.  Combined with Tea Tree Oil, Eucalyptus may be effective with Lice and Nits.

9.  Eucalyptus oil has been studied and is being studied at universities around the world, and there is a growing body of evidence that shows multiple medicinal uses, including:  cure for athletes feet, relieve muscle pain, control airway inflamation in COPD patients, prevent staph infections, and more.
