Skaná, the Spa at Turning Stone, radiates the indigenous spirit of the American Indian. Inspired by the welcoming nature of the Oneida people, Skaná combines innovative treatments and modern amenities with time honored American Indian healing principles to create a unique spa experience.
The Oneida Indians were hunters and gatherers, and the earth provided them with healing herbs like Witch Hazel, Dandelion and Raspberry leaves, all of which they used to treat wounds, ease pain and soothe tired spirits. These simple herbs are still important to the Oneidas today, and are featured in Skaná’s signature treatments. Sharing the elements of the Oneida heritage along with the elements of nature, Skaná is the world’s only spa using ancient ingredients and techniques that reflect the beauty of this culture.
The American Indian Sweat Lodge experience at Skaná incorporates an intense sauna like environment together with Sage and Sweet Grass to aid in a cleansing and purification ritual. Indigenous people often participated in a Sweat Lodge as a way of attaining clarity, whether focusing on a task or relieving oneself from a burden. The Sweat Lodge experience at Skaná offers our guests a glimpse into a world seldom seen. If you are looking for a deeper connection of self awareness you’ll enjoy this full sensory experience.
