PAID CONTENT FOR TEN THOUSAND WAVES JAPANESE SPA & RESORT


Ten Thousand Waves Japanese Spa & Resort NEW MEXICO, UNITED STATES


Bathing has been integral to Japanese culture for millennia and has developed over the centuries into a true art form. Throughout the country, the art and beauty of the bath transforms daily life. The serenity and peace of Japanese bathing culture has been replicated in the high mountains of northern New Mexico, US. Scattered across a 10-acre hillside in the


mountains above Santa Fe, Ten Thousand Waves Japanese Spa & Resort is only 10 minutes from downtown, yet feels worlds away. Inspired by rural Japanese hot spring retreats, the resort offers a blend of outdoor bathing, therapeutic spa treatments, distinctive lodging, destination dining and the high desert beauty of New Mexico. The heart of the experience is soaking beneath


expansive desert skies in beautifully crafted open-air onsen baths. Set among piñon and juniper trees, steam rises into the crisp mountain air as daylight fades and stars ignite overhead. A network of private and communal hot tubs, saunas and cold plunges is woven throughout the landscape, and the gentle sound of flowing water is ever present.


Over more than 45 years, the spa has refined


a focused menu of treatments that prioritise therapeutic impact over trends. Authentic Japanese shiatsu, targeted therapeutic bodywork, hot stone massage and myofascial facial massage address underlying physical imbalances, encouraging long- term relief rather than fleeting indulgence. The accommodation continues the sense of


transport. Ryokan-inspired rooms are individually designed with courtyards, kitchenettes and a distinctly Japanese aesthetic. Guests move freely around the grounds in their yukata robes, even wearing them to dinner. Dining is central to the experience at Izanami, a


relaxed izakaya-style restaurant offering shareable plates that blend Japanese technique with local organic ingredients. An extensive sake list, seasonal cocktails and zero-proof options make each meal a natural extension of the spa experience. All of this unfolds within the cultural richness of


Santa Fe, the oldest city in North America, where canyon hikes and plazas contrast beautifully with the peacefulness of the spa.
