The Napa Valley offers many health and wellness options for visitors, and the valley’s resorts and spas are creating unique and memorable guest experiences to encourage relaxation and well-being.

According to the most recent Visitor Profile Study, visiting a spa is one of the top reasons people come to the Napa Valley. Crystals that enhance massage therapy, superfoods such as monk fruit and homemade probiotic granola that promote well-being, and sleep-inducing snacks including dried cherries and pistachios, are just a few of the forward-thinking health and wellness trends that can be found in Napa Valley. Below are highlights of how health and wellness may be experienced in Napa Valley year-round.
