Do men like going to spas?
In truth, a large majority of men probably love to indulge in a spa experience. And why shouldn’t they? Who doesn’t love to be pampered? There are many treatments that are geared towards men exclusively, and with reason, men may love to be pampered but they do sometimes have different needs than women.
Do you strip at a spa?
For massages and body treatments, ideally you disrobe completely (that means underwear, too). Most spas offer paper panties to wear during body treatments (like scrubs, wraps, or self-tanning)—they don’t cover much, but enough to provide a modicum of modesty. Wear as much or as little clothing as you’d like during the massage. When it’s time for your appointment, feel free to take off some, all, or none of your clothing. Most people dress down to their underwear for the first time, while others are completely fine being naked under the massage blanket.Anything that is comfortable goes! Clothing that is easy to take off, such as sweats are highly recommended. But don’t worry if you happen to wear a three piece suit — we will leave you plenty of time to get undressed.In general, you should wear either swimwear or underwear. If your booked treatment requires full or partial nudity, you will be given time to undress before the treatment starts.
Do men go on spa breaks?
Male spa treatments can offer real benefits, such as soothing dry skin or loosening up tight muscles. The leisure facilities available at spas also provide a great way to relax. Facilities vary between spas but often include a swimming pool, steam room or sauna, and hydrotherapy pool. By including facials and body treatments in a routine, men can maintain healthier, clearer skin and keep a polished, refreshed appearance. For men who are physically active or work in demanding jobs, spa services like massage and steam therapy can be essential for recovery.
What happens in a ladies spa?
The most common spa treatments are massages, manicures/pedicures and facials. However, you might also see offered such treatments as a body scrub/exfoliation, a fingers or toes file & polish (like a mini manicure or pedicure) or a scalp massage. Find out more in our treatment guides. For example, it’s recommended that men shave the night or day before receiving a skin care treatment. For women, shaving before certain spa services could cause irritation. It’s always wise to inquire with the spa receptionist on what type of at-home prep is expected before you show up for your appointment.Have light meals before your spa day to keep comfortable during treatments. If opting for exfoliation, skip shaving 24 hours before to avoid skin irritation. To maximize aromatherapy benefits, skip using perfumes beforehand. Leave your jewelry at home to prevent misplacement during your spa experience.
How long is it safe to stay in a spa?
In many cases, you’ll get the green light to stay in the spa as long as you’re comfortable and feeling well. As a general rule of thumb, most hot tub sessions last between 15 and 45 minutes. If after 45 minutes you want to keep soaking, we recommend stepping out for a bit to give your body a break. As a general rule of thumb, most hot tub sessions last between 15 and 45 minutes.

Hydrate, rest and then enter the spa again.Taking a hot bath immediately could strip away these benefits. Generally, it’s recommended to wait at least two to three hours after a massage before taking a bath. This waiting period allows your body to reap the benefits of the massage and the oils fully.Massage and heat help boost the flow of blood and lymph to the surface of your skin, and make your skin feel flushed, tingling and healthy. And guys, remember that shaving is not recommended immediately before any waxing treatments or other hair removal services.
