This getaway is designed with your relaxation and health as its exclusive goal. Typically you’ll stay at least two nights, and some require a longer minimum stay. Destination spas also tend to focus on "spa cuisine," providing a healthy diet for the duration of your stay ?and some also ban alcohol. All-inclusive programs may be offered, but you should check so you know exactly what you're getting and what certain upgrades might cost. Health/Medical SPA As its name suggests, a health or medical spa is one that focuses on physical well-being. Some of these spas focus on a holistic approach, while others adhere to a specific theory or philosophy to treatment. They will have a medical practitioner to oversee the care given to guests. In addition to health-oriented treatments, they may also offer more cosmetic ones, such as Botox and laser resurfacing, which require a licensed practitioner to perform. Resort/Hotel SPA A resort spa will be one of the many amenities provided for guests at a hotel or resort. While not the sole feature of the resort or hotel, they are often designed to compliment the other amenities, and are great for couples who have different ideas about what is relaxing. |
