When they were planning this road trip, viewers wrote to tell Oprah why she should come to their town. Viewer Maria Gallegos wrote about the healing waters in her town—Pagosa Springs, Colorado. The mineral-rich 10,000-year-old natural spring sits atop an extinct volcano and boasts therapeutic powers.
When Oprah and Gayle popped in to see her at work, Maria told them more about the healing nature of the water. "It helps your hair and your bones," Maria said. "It's really good for arthritis."
"After four days and over 1,000 miles in the car, I was ready for some therapy," Oprah says.
