HEALING FOCUS
Span Resort and Spa’s exclusive healing programs combine morning Yoga and meditation sessions with authentic Indian Ayurveda treatments and contemporary techniques from around the world including Swedish and Balinese massage, Hawaiian Lomi Lomi, and Shiatsu.
A tranquil sanctuary for the body and soul, Span Resort and Spa offers a perfect blend of East-meets-West healing in the Indian Himalayas.
Embracing the healing power of this sacred part of the world, the La Riviere Spa encourages guests to pluck fresh-grown herbs they would like mixed with natural L’OCCITANE products, and in the signature treatments natural stones from the nearby River Beas are used to deepen the experience.

ABOUT
Located 1,654 metres above sea level in the picturesque Kullu Valley (also known as ‘The Valley of the Gods’) Span Resort and Spa is ensconced in the beauty of Mother Nature, sacred myth and fable. Surrounded by snow-capped Himalayan peaks, a valley of flowers and orchards, ancient shrines and temples, this is the perfect place to return to nature and self.
Here, in one of India’s most popular tourist destinations, but a world away from the hectic buzz of life outside, it is easy to escape into the intimacy of solitude and heal yourself.
