Massage therapy saves the day (and a relationship!) at this convenient and affordable day spa retreat in Scottsdale. I have an issue – my back. I don’t like it and it doesn’t like me.

A few weeks ago, my husband and I were in need of a short getaway and decided that Sedona was the perfect spot. The drive is just under two hours from the Phoenix area, and there are so many amazing places to stay. I chose L’Auberge de Sedona, mostly because the resort’s intimate cottages are [...]
