Treat Yourself and Your Man To A Day Spa
No matter what part of the world you live in, you will no doubt be aware of how stressful life can be, and it is this that has led to the popularity of the day spa. Although many of the treatments have been around since ancient times they are becoming more and more popular with both men and women.
It is hard to define the day spa clearly, but most spa guidebooks put them in the other category with beauty, health and fitness, medical and holistic spa.
The first salon in America to use the term day spa is thought to be the one owned by Noelle De Caprio in Stamford, Connecticut, and in 1974 she started offering packages including hairstyling, facial, pedicure, manicure and lunch.
Since, the menu has grown from the traditional salon services to a range of healing and health treatments for skin, and one of Noelle’s signature treatments, the Wellness Massage has been designed around the needs of cancer sufferers.
On the whole, the most notable distinction between a resort or destination spa and the day spa, is that day spas are really beauty salons that offer treatments rather than exercise and fitness aspects of spa services. For many it is far more convenient to visit a day spa than a destination spa because they are usually conveniently situated in their locality.
One of the nine-day spas mentioned in Frommers American West is the Gadabout Day Spa, which has six locations around the Tucson area, which offer a variety of relaxing options, as well as a spa exclusively for men.
If you are interested in treating your man you can buy gift cards, and print them direct from the website for the AboutMan range of treatments, which include spa, hair, waxing and scaping. Scaping is a grooming technique for unmanageable hair on the chest, arms, back and legs.
This day spa also cater for seminars, corporate lunches, birthday parties, girls night out, romance packages, baby and bridal showers and you can even create your own customized package.
Frommers Oregon mentions ten day spas, but the one that grabbed my attention was the Nirvana Apothecary and Day Spa.
The owner wanted to create something for people who wanted more than just a haircut or a spa appointment. It is this that sets this day spa apart from the others and has made it one of the best spas in Portland.
Like the Gadabout salons, the ladies don’t have to leave their men out of the fun, as this day spa is into manscaping and they have created a special package for men which includes general grooming, pruning and edging.
If you are planning to travel around the world and take in some of the best day spas on the way, then travelzoo.COM is a great place to find out what is available.
