Everyone loves to be pampered and one of the perfect places for this is a day spa. New York has a reputation for great spas where busy business people can readily find somewhere to relax and get rid of stress. Gone are the days when these places where just for the rich and famous. Today anyone can afford to spend some time getting fussed over in a relaxing environment where they can leave the pressures of life behind for a while.
Services
Spa operators tend to vary their offerings, but some of the services you can expect from a day spa include:
- Various types of relaxing massages such as aromatherapy, Swedish, deep tissue and reflexology
- Facials
- Waxing
- Detoxing
- Hair removal
Some may also offer pedicures and manicures as part of the package or you can pay for a special package that offers these services. If you visit a medical spa you can also have additional services such as laser resurfacing to reveal younger, healthier looking skin. It is possible to find packages at these places that will suit your needs. The cost and length of time will vary depending on what you want.
The Benefits
