A boutique luxury spa in the heart of Sedona offering treatments inspired by the vortex energies and healing traditions of the land. The Aum Spa combines traditional spa therapies with Sedona's spiritual heritage, incorporating red rock earth clay, prickly pear, and locally gathered botanicals.
Aum Spa at Amara Resort sits in the heart of Sedona, Arizona at 100 Amara Ln, bordered by Oak Creek and backed by the red rock formations that define the area's landscape. This boutique luxury spa draws on Sedona's reputation as a center of vortex energy and spiritual healing, integrating indigenous-informed bodywork with contemporary spa therapies and locally gathered botanical ingredients from Northern Arizona.
The spa occupies an intimate space within the resort, with treatment rooms designed to frame red rock views through large windows. Water features, native plant arrangements, and warm sandstone finishes create an environment that feels continuous with the canyon landscape outside. The resort's position above Oak Creek adds a layer of ambient sound — rushing water audible from outdoor treatment areas — that deepens the sensory experience.
Treatments are grounded in the spiritual heritage of the Sedona region. The Vortex Energy Massage applies deep rhythmic pressure mapped to the energetic centers of the body and is designed in reference to the electromagnetic fields associated with Sedona's four main vortex sites. The Sedona Red Clay Body Wrap uses mineral-rich clay sourced from local red rock deposits, applied as a detoxifying full-body mask before a botanical oil finish. Crystal healing sessions place selenite wands, amethyst clusters, and locally sourced crystals on chakra points while the therapist facilitates breathwork. The Chakra Balancing Treatment blends aromatherapy, heated stones, and energy work in a 90-minute sequence.
Aum Spa also incorporates prickly pear cactus extract and juniper berry oil — both native to Northern Arizona — in its product formulations for facials and body treatments. Therapists hold Arizona state licensure and receive additional training in the spa's energy-work and spiritually informed modalities.
Services are available to resort guests and outside visitors by advance appointment. Prices range from approximately $120 to $280 per service. Spring and fall are peak visitor seasons in Sedona, and reservations at least one week in advance are recommended during those periods.

The Vortex Energy Massage and Chakra Balancing Treatment are the primary vortex-aligned offerings. They combine pressure therapy, energy work, and intention-setting practices drawn from the Sedona vortex tradition. No prior spiritual background is required.
