The word spa, which is derived from the town of Spa in Belgium, has been around since ancient times. Healing centres and towns would spring up near natural mineral-rich hot or cold springs that were thought to be beneficial to health. Today, there are many different types of spas. They can range from elaborate wellness palaces with steam rooms, relaxation rooms and a host of treatments to simple one-room salons. They can cost the earth or be surprisingly affordable and offer everything from a massage to a full day of pampering.
Some people like to chat with their massage therapist, others prefer to remain silent and most fall somewhere in between. It is important to communicate with your therapist during the treatment and let them know whether you feel comfortable talking or not. They will usually respond to your cues and talk more or less based on the feedback you provide.
A massage is a powerful tool to relieve stress, alleviate pain, boost circulation and improve skin condition. Managing your stress levels is vital to maintaining healthy body functions and may even reduce the risk of some health conditions.
When choosing a spa, consider their reputation, location and the type of experience you want to enjoy. A destination or resort spa will often have more expansive experiences and facilities and will often include all-inclusive packages. A day spa, on the other hand, provides a more convenient and flexible option that will allow you to fit a treatment into your daily schedule.
