With the middle of the year fast approaching, it’s easy to find yourself being taken over by the stress of everyday life. Every once in a while, it becomes a good idea to allow yourself to let go, relax, and carve out some time in your schedule for a little pampering. Going to the spa is a wonderful way to treat yourself—not only does it afford you some precious Me Time, it also provides a temporary escape from the outside world.
Stay comfortable.
While some women don’t mind stripping down to the bare essentials while walking around the locker rooms or hanging out at the lounge, there’s no hard and fast rule about disrobing. The most important rule is that you are comfortable in your own skin—whether that means wearing a bikini in the steam room or keeping your robe on at all times outside of the massage area. If stripping down feels awkward even during your treatment, consider getting a Thai or Shiatsu massage, which will have your body covered all throughout.
Make an appointment.
Calling in advance allows spas to prep your room and everything else that comes with the treatment you’re seeking. Speaking to reception also enables you to ask about prices, promotions, and packages ahead of time. It also allows them to inform you about add-ons such as extra time in the sauna, or being able to take a dip in the Jacuzzi before your body scrub or massage. The relaxation you find when going to a spa starts as soon as you walk through the door—and knowing that everything has been set for you in advance can help create a seamless an experience as possible.
Be polite.
Some facialists or technicians are instructed to sell you spa-sponsored products during your treatment. While a sales pitch can be distracting especially when you’re in the mood to remove yourself from the outside world, it’s important to be clear with your intention and then move on. Just inform your technician that you aren’t interested, or would rather hear about promotions after they provide you their service and they should easily back off. If they persist, approach the manager before you step out and express your disappointment over what happened.
Stay quiet.
There is nothing more off-putting than unnecessary noise at a spa. Keeping your cell phone in silent mode (no vibrating!) is a must. And when heading to relax with a group of friends, make sure to keep your voices toned down and hushed as well.
