Consider the Nose to Toes therapy with its Japanese head, neck, shoulder, and foot rubs.
Gayot "Ten Thousand Waves is atypical of upscale Santa Fe accommodations... nestled on a hillside four miles east of downtown, and known foremost as a spa rather than a hotel."

For a bit of kitsch, request the Kenny Rogers or Wyatt Earp rooms.
