SPAS
The term “Spa” comes from the name of a town in Belgium where the ancient Romans discovered
iron-rich natural springs which have been recognized as having the purest water
in the world. “Spa” is now used to describe health resorts and day facilities which specialize in
water-based therapies which promote health and healing in our bodies. These
spas also usually offer a range of other therapies for a healthy body, mind and
spirit. These spas are not to be confused with beauty salons that use “Spa” as a term to describe cosmetic, beauty and hair care.
