Though just being in the building should invoke some kind of tingly emotion by everyone who goes there--from awe to relaxation or some kind of anxiety--it is the goal of the spa staff here to ensure all kinks are thoroughly rubbed out. Cleverly using local ingredients and elements, the staff have developed Texas-themed massage packages. Choose from the cheerful Yellow Rose of Texas body wrap and be drenched in fresh rose petals and rose essential oil (80 minutes, $195), the Colorado River mud mask, with foaming mud (50 minutes, $145), or the sure-to-be-relaxing signature treatment: a scrub with Texas Hill Country lavender, followed by a deep moisture treatment made with fragrant lemongrass (110 minutes, $260).

In another set of utilizing locally available rejuvenating ingredients to make a body feel good, this treatment starts with an exfoliating scrub featuring prickly pear, which is not at all prickly and even good enough to eat. Next is a liberal application of aloe vera; then linens are wrapped around the body for a spell, while the face and scalp get a massage of their own. House-blended oils and creams are used during the last, big part of this treatment: a 50-minute full body massage (110 minutes, $315).
