Build a wellness routine out the back door.

High Desert Spas is your local backyard wellness destination in American Fork, Utah. We’re about more than hot tubs and saunas: hot and cold, red light, and a real way to unwind, all a few steps from the house.

Contrast therapy: hot, then cold.

Contrast therapy means switching between heat and cold. Warm up in a hot tub or an infrared sauna, take a short dip in a cold plunge, then go back to the heat. A few rounds, and most people finish feeling awake and loose.

People use it after workouts, first thing in the morning or to wind down at night. With a hot tub or sauna and a cold plunge in the backyard, it’s a few steps instead of a drive to the gym.

Warm up

Soak in a hot tub at up to 104°F, or sit in an infrared sauna, until you’re warm through.

Cool down

Step into the cold plunge, down to 39°F, for a short dip. Short is fine, especially at first.

Repeat

Go back to the heat and repeat a few times. Many people like to finish on cold.

Red light therapy.

Cal Aura Red Light DuoTherapy adds light therapy to a Solara infrared sauna. Cal Spas designed it for both surface and deep tissue light therapy, aimed at skin, muscle recovery and sleep. Ask to try a session while you’re in the showroom.

Relax and recover.

The simplest part of backyard wellness: warm water and a few quiet minutes.

Take the weight off

Warm water holds you up, which takes pressure off sore knees, backs and shoulders, and the jets work on tight muscles while you sit.

Wind down

A soak at the end of the day is a simple way to put the phone down, breathe and unwind before bed.

Find your tub

Swim, then soak

A swim spa gives you low-impact laps against the current, then a warm soak in the same water.
