“Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical.” ~Sophia Loren
Many things surmount outward beauty. But, how we look and feel can contribute to our quality of life. Visiting a day spa is a relaxing and pampering experience to restore and rejuvenate.
HISTORY
While the spa experience is a fairly recent phenomenon for American's, it is a long established practice dating back to ancient times.
Greeks first enjoyed thermal baths as early as 500 B.C. Since that time spas have served as retreats, gathering places and healing centers.
During the 1900's, “Destination Spas” began cropping up throughout the U.S. offering therapeutic, nutrition, fitness and spiritual programs catering to the rich and famous who could afford them.
Since the term “day spa” was coined in the 1980's, explosive industry growth made pampering an affordable mini-escape for the not so rich.
Technology and the 1990's brought a new age of rejuvenation. Dermatologists and Cosmetic surgeons offered more than just cosmetics and pampering with anti-aging options backed by clinical trials and safe medical practices.
THE MEDI SPA
Today's medical spa takes pampering to a new level by combining medically approved products and treatments with pampering and relaxation.
Caring and trained staff discuss options for a mind/body approach to achieving medical, anti-stress and cosmetic treatments. Those wishing to “slow down the clock” can be assured the safety of having treatments carried out under the supervision of a physician while safely enjoying a relaxing, day spa experience.
