Spa Elegance- what to expect
"Meditation is not a thought, it is an experience," Frank Lloyd Wright.
From early settlers, like Ponce de Leon and his Fountain of Youth, to baby boomers of today people from all parts of the globe are seeking peace, tranquility and the elusive youthful appearance and feeling. Day Spas and Resort Spas were a niche in the nineties, now they are clamoring to pamper you. Men, women, even teens and athletes have customized therapies, and relaxing and re-hydrating services.
Boutique spas, like Debbie's Day Spa in St. Augustine, FL, offer pampering services for the busy executive, dedicated athlete and the domestic engineers ranging from cranberry soak pedicures, paraffin wax manicures, aromatherapy and cultural massages to re-hydrating, anti-aging and baby boomer facials.
Have a birthday coming up? Or looking for something unique to give someone special? Maybe a mother-to-be? A new bride? Spas and resorts, like The Spa at LaTerra or Sawgrass Marriott, are catering to couples and groups with customized activities and healthy, delectable cuisine. Also, contact one of these spas, or click on the Mobile Spa page for luxurious spa gift baskets--for any budget!
The word "spa" is an acronym for the Latin phrase sanus per aquam, which means health through water.
Unwind in the hydro relaxation room, while sipping sparkling water, or sweat it out in the eucolyptus scented sauna. Cleanse your skin with sea salts scrubs, wrap yourself in a milk and honey re-hydration cocoon, against the quiet, beach side backdrop. Most services at resort spas are available in a private cabana outside upon request.
Melt away stress and rejuvenate your senses under a cascading waterfall at the Ponte Vedra Inn & Club, currently building a new 28,000 square foot full-service spa on the sun-drenched, sparkling shores of the Atlantic Ocean.
In addition to body and soul rejuvenation, take time out to horseback ride on the beach, serve a round of tennis or swing through the championship golf course.

New Trends in treatments and spas
Look for a whole spectrum of energy medicines including Reiki, chakra balancing, healing touch and sound therapy in modern spas. Have an open mind to better enjoy and experience your treatment.
Medical spa and the hospital? Picture the “spa-spital” where guests will travel to be in feng shui private rooms, 24 -hour room service with organic local cuisine, on-demand massage and a menu of alternative healing therapies. (This is way overdue! Insurance companies listen up! Quality healthcare and less recovery time! The missing element, spa-healthcare!)
Eco-embedded Spas. Green initiatives and eco processes are being enmeshed throughout the entire spa. In Europe, for example, hotel room key slots trigger time-delayed sensors to turn off lights and air conditioning in rooms. Rancho La Puerta serves cuisine from its’ organic farm. A new breed of spa, like Rock Resort Spa at Keystone Lodge in Colorado, built from the “earth up” with sustainability in mind; using wind-powered electricity, building from recycled wood, etc.
Spa-aing on the Go? Spa’ing while traveling is reaching new altitudes; trains with fully equipped gyms and spas, planes with in-flight spa showers and massage treatments, health and wellness-oriented cruises and more! Companies are targeting the over-stressed traveler.
Brain health and Mind gyms. With baby boomers in mind, brain health is increasingly on the spa-goers mind. Along with traditional cornerstones like healthy food, exercise, relaxation techniques and healthy sleep, which are key to long-term brain health, spas will step it up this year with activities, eduction and new technologies and therapies that function like “gyms for the mind”. Whether its exercising the grey matter through brain boosting games or juggling, or spa educational programs where neuroscientists discuss books like “My Stroke of Insight” brain workouts are increasingly popping up on both day and stay spa menus.
Spas, out of necessity will increasingly become ‘learning labs’ for stress reduction. Look for spa staff to increasingly become teachers of take-home, DIY ‘relaxation responses.’ You'll also see effective stress therapies like breath work, hot baths, meditation, exercise, massage, MBSR (mindfulness-based stress reduction) programs and even an emphasis on psychological support and the sharing of feelings. Mini-treatments like ten-minute chair massages will grow in popularity, not only because they’re relaxing on the wallet, but because of the increased awareness that stress reduction is critical to overall health and can be accomplished quite quickly with the right techniques.
As Gen X (born 1965 to 1980) and Gen Y (born 1981 to 1995) hit spas in record numbers, they’re shaping the experience to meet their unique wants and desires. They seek wellness and often head to the spa in packs—giving new meaning to the ongoing trend of social spa-ing. These generations also exhibit an unprecedented comfort level with cosmetic med-spa procedures, and are adopting them for prevention (“Give me Botox in my 20’s, so I can prevent wrinkles in the first place.”) Spas need to rethink everything from design, to treatment menus, to standards for use of personal communication devices. Some spas are now allowing iPod usage during massage, adding party-size treatment rooms, and trumpeting philanthropic endeavors and their commitment to sustainability. Spas need to embrace new technologies, such as online bookings and mobile alerts for last minute spa deals.
With almost 72,000 spas around the world, consumers may need some help distinguishing between them. Spas that establish and broadcast a truly unique brand identity will enjoy a powerful competitive advantage, and should attract more guests at a time when consumer budgets are under pressure.
Large companies like Dove, Nivea and Shiseido are bringing strong branding savvy into the spa game High-end luxury brands like Prada are expanding into spa as well. (Spa Trends modified from spas.about.com)
