The practice of traveling to hot or cold springs seeking improved health dates to prehistoric times. The term “spa” is derived from the town of Spa, Belgium, where, since medieval times, illnesses have been treated by drinking iron-rich spring water. The term "spa" came to refer to any health resort near natural springs. At first, “spa” referred to resorts for drinking rather than bathing, but this distinction was gradually lost.
Today, spas emphasize dietary, exercise, or recreational programs more than bathing. According to the International Spa Association, a spa is “devoted to enhancing overall well-being through a variety of professional services that encourage the renewal of mind, body and spirit.” Some spas offer onsite bed and breakfast lodging, other offer their services in partnership with a nearby bed and breakfast.
A day spa is a whole body beauty salon usually offering a variety of services, including skin care, body waxing, hand and foot therapies and body bronzing, in additional to traditional spa options like hydrotherapy and massage. Day spas are an ideal bed and breakfast amenity for bridal parties, or for groups of friends looking for the ultimate in a pampered weekend retreat.
