Whether you’re boosting your immunity in a subzero cryotherapy chamber, soothing your sore muscles with a piping hot mud bath or getting your skin exfoliated with red wine ‘vinotherapy’, there’s no denying the spa is an extraordinary place to relax, recharge and rejuvenate. But, did you know that the modern day spa has some incredibly ancient roots?
The term ‘spa’ is derived from the Latin ‘Salus per Aquam’, meaning health through water. In fact, it is believed that the Romans took a rest at thermal springs and used the waters to heal their bodies and minds.
In today’s fast-paced world, many of us have a hard time finding the time to pamper ourselves and recharge. However, a day at the spa can make all the difference to your well-being. Spa treatments and activities can help reduce stress, improve sleep, boost confidence, and lower blood pressure.
Massage and hydrotherapy also increase serotonin and dopamine levels, which are chemicals in the brain that help regulate your mood. These positive feelings can last for a long time after you leave the spa, and help you deal with stressful situations in a more calm and effective way.
During your spa experience, you’ll probably be asked to remove your clothes and cover yourself with a robe and slippers. This is to ensure the treatments are done without disturbing other people, and to maintain privacy and respect. However, you should always communicate with your practitioner if the temperature is uncomfortable or there are any other concerns.
