A spa is a place to enjoy massage, beauty treatments and other wellness therapies. It is often used as a form of relaxation and wellbeing, but may also be an effective treatment for illness. The term originates from the Latin phrase Salus per aquam or Sanitas per aquam, meaning “health through water”.
A trip to the spa can improve your mood and reduce stress by relieving you of many physical and mental responsibilities. It also helps you sleep better at night and boosts your immune system, as well as being good for your skin. Taking the time to relax can make you happier and more confident.
The most common treatments are body and facial massages, but a variety of other treatments can be found at some spas. For example, some places offer weight loss programs and some have mud baths. Medical spas have more serious offerings, such as Botox and fillers or laser hair removal.
Many spas have packages that include a treatment and several hours of use of the leisure facilities. They may be available in the morning, afternoon or evening. These packages are often less expensive than a day pass alone.
You can hire robes and towels at most spas, but it’s worth bringing your own. You should also bring non-slip flip flops for walking around the wet facilities. It’s also a good idea to pack a swimsuit, as some spas have pools. Showering before your spa visit is important, as it removes sweat and personal care products such as deodorant, perfume and cologne.
