Where you choose to go for your day spa treatments is extremely important. It is no secret when we have the chance to get the day to ourselves and spend it at the spa we are excited. But, it is important to do a bit of research before just choosing a spa... your health depends on it in more than one way. We know the psychological benefits of taking time for ourselves. A day to just recharge our batteries and to relax. For us women the stress of work, family and keeping the home under order takes its toll. For men, the stress of work and the outside environment as well a family gives you time to breath. Over time it not only stresses us it begins to show in our appearance and the way we carry ourselves.
Know The Day Spa You Are Choosing For Safety Sake
Spa
Pure indulgence for a few hours, what could be better? Not really much. But beware of the hidden dangers and know what to look for before you make the appointment. If you have time, visit a few spas. If not, at least visit the spa you are choosing. While on your visit keep your eyes wide open. Will a pedicure be part of the day? Pay attention to the chairs that are being used. Are they in good shape? How does the water look in the foot bowl? Ask if the water is just being recirculated or if it is free running. May sound a bit disgusting but many spas recirculate the water. Not a very well-known fact and something to be aware of.
How are the manicure and pedicure equipment cleaned? Is the equipment cleaned after each and every client? Food for thought. Just dipping the equipment in cleaning solution should not be acceptable to anyone.
Medical Day Spa For Corrective Treatments
A medical day spa is very different from just a regular day spa. First, if you are concerned about the cleanliness of the spa you want to have treatments at the medical day spa is usually the better option. There is normally one or more physicians on staff. The overall stall of the medical day spa are chosen with care because they have been trained medically. Medical day spas can also perform corrective treatments that a regular spa cannot. These treatments may include:
Medical Aesthetic Procedures - Fractional laser, skin tightening, hair removal, cosmetic injections, Botox, dermal fillers, and IPL photo rejuvenation.
Skin problems where medical advice is warranted.
When choosing a spa be sure to ask questions. If you are afraid you will not remember just write them down. Although calling a spa and asking questions is fine it is more advisable to make a visit. It will be well worth the time and effort in the end. When you choose a day of relaxation you do not want to have to worry about anything.
