FAQs
Introduction
Day spas are businesses that offer specific services to help promote health, wellness, and beauty. Massage therapists often work at day spas offering several services, including deep-tissue massage to help improve circulation and release knotted muscles and hot stone massage to promote positive energy flow through the body and release toxins. People visit day spas to receive pampering treatments designed to leave them feeling both rejuvenated and relaxed.
Beauty and aesthetic services are also common offerings at day spas, with treatments that include antiaging facials, body and face waxing, and nail care. Day spas that employ licensed medical professionals, also referred to as med spas, can also offer antiaging medical treatments, such as cosmetic fillers and Botox injections.
What is a day spa?
A day spa is an establishment that provides aesthetic and therapeutic services. Offerings include hot stone massage and deep tissue massage, rejuvenating beauty treatments, such as deep cleaning facials, pedicures and manicures, and moisturizing body wraps. Day spas provide a space for visitors to relax and de-stress through a variety of treatments that release tension and promote calmness.
What is the difference between a spa and a day spa?
The two common types of spas are med spas and day spas. Day spas typically offer pampering services, such as massages, facials, manicures and pedicures, and whole-body beauty treatments. While a med spa also provides massage and skin services, the procedures offered are tailored to treat skin conditions, such as varicose veins, dry skin, and wrinkles. Med spas also handle procedures, such as Botox and filler injections.
Should I go to a spa or dermatologist?
Med spas offer services, such as chemical peels for wrinkles, filler and Botox injections, and cool sculpting for fat removal, while dermatologists are specialized doctors who diagnose and treat skin conditions, such as warts, eczema, and skin cancers. Determining whether to go to a spa or a dermatologist depends on the type of treatment needed.
What does a full spa day include?
Day spas offer multiple services, à la carte menu items, and packages, so a full spa day depends on the treatments an individual wants to experience. Day spa offerings include full-body massages, facial treatments, body waxing, aromatherapy, foot massages and baths, hot stone massages, and microdermabrasion. Some day spas also offer detoxing clay baths and full body wraps.
What are the different types of spa?
At a med spa, customers receive treatments for dry skin, varicose veins, skin resurfacing, and hair removal. Day spas offer aesthetic services, such as facials and moisturizing and detoxing body wraps. Mineral spring spas or hot spring spas are naturally heated water springs, sometimes located on a resort’s property, where visitors soak in the water to soothe muscle tension.
What does a full-service spa mean?
Full-service spas offer a full menu of treatments and aesthetic services. While specific offerings can vary, most full-service spas include massage, beauty treatments, such as facials and manicures, anti-aging treatments, and detoxing clay baths and body wraps. Some spas may also provide spray tanning and hair salon services.
What is included in a spa day?
Day spas provide multiple menu offerings and packages as well as single treatments. Some services in a spa day include aromatherapy massages to promote calmness and relaxation, clay mask facials, antiaging treatments, mud baths, moisturizing body treatments, and body wraps with hot towels.
What to do on a spa day?
There are several things to on a spa day. Day spas offer packages that include full-body treatments with botanical moisturizers and essential oils to open up the senses and promote relaxation, hot stone massages to draw out toxins, and Swedish massages to soothe aching muscles. Additional offerings can include facials with antiaging products, pedicures, and manicures.
How do I book a spa day?
Spa days can be booked by calling the establishment and scheduling services for the desired dates. Additionally, many spas offer online scheduling where customers can check the business calendar and request appointments through a virtual portal.
What to wear to a spa day?
Street clothes are just fine to wear to a day spa, as many spas provide robes, and customers generally wear undergarments during a massage. However, loose, comfortable clothing is a good idea for those receiving massages, as the muscles will be more relaxed and tight clothing can feel constricting.
Are spa days expensive?
On average, day spa treatments cost between $70 and $120, so a day at the spa can get expensive when a customer requests multiple services. Spas that are on cruise ships and hotels tend to be more expensive than storefront spas, with treatment prices starting at around $150.
How much does a spa day cost?
Day spa costs can vary depending on specific treatments and packages offered. On average, treatments, such as massages, facials, and body wraps, range between $70 and $120. Day spas that provide robes, locker rooms, showers, and multi-treatment packages are in the higher range.
Should you shower before a spa?
Showering is recommended for those who are scheduled for massages, as it helps open the pores and loosen the muscles. Showering prior to a massage or any other treatment in which another person is in contact with one's body is also considerate and sanitary, as clean skin is less likely to spread germs.
Do you leave a tip at a spa?
Tipping is welcome and considered customary at most day spas. However, customers should always verify with the establishment if tips are accepted. In general, tips ranging from 15% to 20% of the total cost for spa services is considered appropriate.
What does a spa do to your body?
Spa treatments do multiple things to promote body wellness and relaxation. Facial treatments open up the skin's pores and encourage collagen production, while deep tissue massages can help to relax the muscles, reduce inflammation, and increase circulation. Hot tub spas or whirlpools contain hot, bubbling water that helps widen the blood vessels and increase circulation while massaging the muscles.
What is the most relaxing spa treatment?
There are several spa treatments that promote relaxation. Aromatherapy massages incorporate essential oils, such as lavender, into the treatments for an enhanced tranquil experience, and scalp massages help increase circulation and relax neck muscles. Hawaiian Lomi-Lomi massages comprise continuous deep-pressure strokes that help to ease tension.
What is the most popular spa treatment?
Full-body massage is considered one of the most popular spa treatments for men and women, with Swedish massage being one of the most commonly scheduled procedures. Hot stone massages, body wraps, and pampering facials are also among the most popular services.
