With over 80,000 spas worldwide, how do you decide which one is best for you? The answer depends on what type of wellness experience you are looking for, how much you want to spend and how far you want to travel to get there. In North America our idea of a Spa used to be a place to go and be pampered and loose weight, but that has totally changed. The new concept of Spas is to promote wellness by offering a wide variety of lectures, workshops, treatments and activities with the aim of prevention, helping you to unwind and just simply relax. In Europe, Spas has been a medical tradition for centuries and today some Europeans enjoy the benefits of visiting a Spa and getting reimbursed by their Medical Plans as this is considered part of their Wellness and Healing! Some Destination Spas offer Hiking, Horseback Riding, Yoga, Skiing, Cooking etc and bring in guest lectures offering a wide variety of topics. Other Spas include stillness, peace and quiet like the Gwinganna Spa in Australia where they offer ‘dreamtime’. Some Spas offer indigenous treatments and others have a hospital where you can have a medical checkup such as The Malo Clinic in Macau which is the world’s largest integrative wellness centre with 50 doctors attending guests. A newer style of Spa treatment for North America is The Hammam, with one being offered at the Palms Place in Las Vegas . Originating in Turkey and Morocco, you can also experience The Hammam at the beautiful Cagaloglu Hammam in Istanbul. Even closer to home we have the Miraj Hammam Spa right here in Vancouver that offers this type of treatment. |
