About Us
The roots of Utah’s spa industry can be traced back to the Wasatch Front’s very first full service spa – the Sanctuary Day Spa – which opened in the ZCMI Center in 1985. Sanctuary introduced Utah residents to a unique offering of healing treatments mixed with customized beauty and hair services, providing the ultimate escape from the everyday. The concept introduced by Sanctuary is now the blueprint and standard for all day spas in the state.
Today, Sanctuary Day Spa and Salon continues to set the standard for the spa experience, with locations conveniently located at The Gateway and Southtowne Mall.
Sanctuary Day Spa was the first to introduce:
An affordable and accessible spa experience – before Sanctuary opened, the only option for spa treatments came from exclusive destination resorts.
The combination of beauty and spa services to create a complete offering of health and beauty services.
A full array of massage and skin therapies using a variety of ancient treatments influenced by Himalayan, Caribbean and Indian methods that not only rejuvenate but also revitalize.
