What is SPA? In fact, SPA means Sanus Per Aquam or “Health through water”. The modern understanding of the SPA includes various procedures and programs for restoring the body, where water is used in all its forms – from mineral, muddy or ice baths to seaweed procedures and sea salt peeling.

AMENITY SPA / RESORT SPA – As the name implies, this is an added facility for the resort goer who enjoys the concept of a spa in combination with other non-spa activities. Rejuvenation, relaxation and revitalization are the goals of any of these three forms of spas.

Spas want their guests to be as comfortable as possible, so non-restrictive garments (such as yoga bottoms, lounge pants, T-shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies) are encouraged at most resorts. If you are staying at one of our luxury spas, there may be a dress code for the restaurant.

Here’s how.

1. Stage the evening.
2. Do it your way.
3. Slather on a hair mask (aka deep conditioner) ASAP.
4. Go face-first into a sheet mask.
5. Apply a disposable eye mask.
6. Give hands a TLC makeover.
7. Thank your feet with bootie masks.
8. Relax in a steamy (but not too hot) tub.

Suits you use at the pool or lake will also tend to accumulate lotion or sunscreen, which will also compromise the quality of the water in hot tubs. The whole point of hot tub water care and filtration is to eliminate unwanted contaminants. Consider wearing a dedicated bathing suit for hot tub use only.

Bathing is the washing of the body with a liquid, usually water or an aqueous solution, or the immersion of the body in water. It may be practiced for personal hygiene, religious ritual or therapeutic purposes. By analogy, especially as a recreational activity, the term is also applied to sun bathing and sea bathing.

Turn on the bathroom fan in each bathroom in your home. This will help to cycle out the warm air as it rises. Make sure to use your kitchen fans and ceiling fans as well to keep that warm air moving through your home. Alternatively, use a stationary fan to circulate air in your home and create a cool breeze.

Dr. Reynolds suggests storing bath towels outside the bathroom. “That’s best practice,” she says. “Otherwise, keep them in a cabinet or covered container—you need a barrier so the plume can stick to something else and not your towel.”
