What makes your spa unique?
Look at and take note of the treatments offered by yourself and other local spas around – is there anything missing? One way to make your spa unique is to offer treatments that are not commonly found in other spas. Consider offering services such as hot stone massage, aromatherapy, reflexology, and cupping. All good spa treatments start with a consultation. The therapist will ask you questions about the condition of your skin, in order to tailor the treatment to your specific needs. The therapist should then talk you through the stages of the treatment, explaining the purpose and benefits of each.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.

It’s also a good idea to exfoliate a day before, so your skin is primed to absorb the full benefits of any lotions or oils used during massages and treatments.
Which age is best for spa?
Spa age policies vary significantly depending on the facility and treatment type. Most traditional spas restrict access to saunas, steam rooms, and thermal pools to guests over 16 or 18, primarily for safety reasons related to heat exposure and developing bodies’ different temperature regulation systems.

In all cases, children and teenagers must be accompanied by an adult. What it boils down to is a combination of individual spa destination protocols, safety, consideration for others and personal choice.
Can kids use a spa?
Typically, children aged five and above may use hot tubs provided they can stand with their feet touching the bottom and are under constant supervision. People who are ages 50 and older, have weakened immune systems and/or identify as former smokers should consider not using a hot tub or even sitting near one, the CDC says.
Is it okay to go to a spa alone?
Going to a spa on your own can be far more relaxing than going en masse or à deux: you don’t constantly have to check with your partner or friend to see if they’re ready for a sauna or a mint tea yet, or feel guilty for ignoring them to read a magazine or have a snooze.
