Day spa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about a health facility. For other uses, see Spa (disambiguation).
A day spa is a business establishment that people visit for professionally administered personal care treatments such as massages and facials. It is similar to a beauty salon in that it is only visited for the duration of the treatment. Day spas sited in airport terminals are often called airport spas, which also offer services for hair and nails. In contrast, a destination spa offers the same services in a resort setting with accommodation facilities where visitors reside for a day or more.
