Sea Level Spa

This place was incredible & the owner, Mike, has such a kind nature & relaxing energy about him. My husband & I did the chair massage with Mike & 30 minutes of oxygen each. We both agreed that the chair massage was one of the best massages that we’d ever had (even a couple of days later we still feel great!) & that the 30 minutes of oxygen left us feeling really rejuvenated. I also did reflexology with Mike & it was by far the best reflexology I’ve ever had. We will most definitely be back next time we’re in Crested Butte!

JUST GO !!!
Sometimes you you just find yourself in the right place at the right time.
My Mom and I have spent the last 4 evenings in a row at the Sea Level Spa. I have had reflexology all over the world and who knew that Created Butte, Colorado would have one of the best!
If your coming in from sea level 30 minutes of O2 can change your day. If your headachy or nauseous it can really help your symptoms.
So the massage work and the oxygen are wonderful but don’t miss the hyperbaric chamber and the infrared sauna. Truly change your day if not your week around.
There are lots of alternative treatments available and Mike and his staff are just fantastic. If your reading this you have come across a truly unique spa with the most wonderful therapist.

Mike is a great guy, talks you through each treatment. Do the day pass and get the full treatment. Very relaxing, better than just a simple massage. Don’t look at the shop itself, it’s more than advertised!
Will definitely come here again next trip to town.

I really like they sell Sports Oxygen in a can. It is hard to find a supplier in Colorado.

Visited Crested Butte for 4 days of skiing. On the first night, my 14 year old got sick and passed out. Found this place online. Mike was fantastic. I called to see what time they opened, but there way no answer (around 6am). Around 7:30 I received a call from Mike saying to come on in (even though they didn’t open until 9).
After an hour in the chamber, my daughter was much better. Ended up purchasing the family pass (with NO pressure — had to ask about it to find out details — no pushy sales here).
That evening, my husband came with us to oxygen (and I think to entertain me). Talking with Mike, we realized he could help with my husbands feet (plantar fasciitis). After one treatment, my husband couldn’t believe the difference and ended up going back all four nights we were there.
Extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff. We have decided to go back next winter and having this spa available to help us with altitude issues was part of the decision. They are that good!

I happened upon the Sea Level Spa while talking to a friend about altitude sickness. I went in and tried the oxygen bar, that night I sleep well and did not have an altitude headache for several days. At that point I went back and took advantage of the all day/​unlimited machine access. I had driven from Texas to Colorado and my hip was out of place from the trip. I was able to use a great treatment that realigned my back and put my hip back in place.
I found the staff very kind and helpful, taking the time to answer my questions about the benefits of the different treatments available. Thanks for the help! I will stop in next time I am in the area!

I was visiting Crested Butte for a family wedding. I used to live in Telluride many years ago, so I knew that the altitude might be an issue. I don’t remember anything like this being available when I lived in Telluride, so I was excited to see these services available. I know that the altitude can really take someone out.
I decided to give it try. Staff was super nice and helpful. It was nice that they took walk-​ins. The chairs were simple but comfortable. A couple of ladies were getting foot massages during their time with the oxygen. I was impressed by the hyperbaric chambers. If I were having a true issue, I’d definitely try them. They were set up very nicely and seemed cozy.
I only got about 20 minutes instead of the 30 minute recommendation. It was nice to get a little O2 to rejuvenate. If you’re in the area, stop in!

I found this place while we were driving through town looking for a health food store. I’m a bit of a spa junkie so my eyes instantly zeroed in on the «Spa» in the name. For once in my life I was actually excited to see that this was not your typical spa. Underneath the name it was mentioning something about an Oxygen Bar. The timing could not have been more perfect, as I was actually heading to the health food store to pick up something for my husband who was having issues with the altitude. (We live in Los Angeles at Sea Level)
I popped in to check hours and prices. The owner, a nice man with a calming peaceful energy, was very helpful in explaining treatment options. Most of the options run $ 1 a minute. They have an Oxygen bar where you sit in comfy chairs with the little Oxygen tubes up your nose. The guy recommended my husband do a Hyperbolic Chamber, which you sit or lay down in a little room that has a bunch of Oxygen pumped into it. He said this treatment should make my husband good for the rest of the week because it forces the Oxygen into the muscles, etc. There is a 30 minute minimum, he suggested we do an hour but said my man could be good with 45 since we seemed a little unsure of this treatment.
My husband said the treatment kind of felt like being on an airplane, his ears kept popping. After the treatment he felt a million times better. We went to our family dinner and he seemed to be back to his old self.
Unfortunately, the treatment did not seem to treat my husband long-​term and we took him to the ER in Gunnison later that night. When they checked his O2 level he was at 94% — which is actually pretty good so the Hyperbolic may have really helped out with that. Unfortunately, even though his vitals were okay he still felt like crap. At the ER they gave him some pills that were supposed to help. Not so much.
After we came home from the ER my husband still had problems sleeping and was complaining about tingling in his hands and feet. He was completely miserable and we were going to head back to Gunnison to get to lower altitude. We decided to make a quick stop at Sea Level Spa for some O2. The owners were very sweet and helpful.
We started with the O2 bar. After 15 minutes the guy suggested we try the «Life Force Amplifier,» which the menu describes as «An Electro-​Magnetic Frequency device that emits a broad spectrum of high frequency energy which resonate with the body’s own bio-​electric fields.» He said it should help with healing, restoring, and basically shaking up the cells to work better or something. To be honest, he probably could have sold me Tic Tacs as magic pills and we would have tried it. Luckily, they seemed more interested in getting my man better than making a buck. He did that machine for about 20 minutes.
This place offers a day pass for $ 70 where you have unlimited access to all of the O2, Hyperbaric Chamber and machines. This would be a great deal if you were doing the Hyperbaric Chamber — we probably would have done this deal if we had noticed it the first day. They suggested that my husband walk around to see if he feels any improvement and if he wanted to come back later for more treatment we could just upgrade to the Day Pass and pay the difference at that time. Props for not pushing us to get the pass that second!
Unfortunately my husband kept feeling awful. It turned out some of his biggest complaints were side effects from the medicine the ER sent him home with. At this point we decided to just head back to my parents house in Colorado Springs.
While my husband seemed to be an extreme, difficult case, I would definitely suggest this for visitors to Crested Butte are suffering from altitude sickness. If you don’t feel better, then go down to Gunnison where the altitude is reasonably lower.

Nice little place on Elk. Opened just a month or so ago. They offer a lot of alternative therapies and is unlike the typical «spa» at a hotel (in a very good way).
I got 10 minutes on the Life force magnifier and the Chi Machine.
From traveling to Crested butte my Sciatic pain has flared up. I woke up in screaming agony at 2am and had to take pain medication to be able to sleep. I scheduled a massage for a few days from now, and decided to try this treatment because it seemed less invasive or agravating for my sciatic pain. It was wonderful! I was skeptic of the «Life force magnifier» at first, but after I got used to the zapping sounds it was very relaxing and felt like vibrational waves passing through my body. Afterwards I did the Chi machine which holds your ankles and moves you from side to side. By moving from the ankles the whole rest of the joints in the body move, and you can relax areas that are in constant tension. After 10 minutes when he stopped the machine, I felt like I was floating above my body, tingling buzzing all over my skin.
I skipped the O2 therapy because I’m from Breckenridge (10K feet), but they look like they have a wonderful set up for that. The hallways from/​to the massage rooms is small, and their ceiling needs some draping to hide the office like interior, but otherwise they’ve done a great job to create a healing space, with nice lighting, and plenty of options for alternative healing therapies. $ 1 a minute for most treatments, and $ 75 an hour for massage. I’m going to go back to get a massage and to try out the chi machine again this week!
