Spa Definition

It is known as Spa to those establishments that offer treatments, relaxation alternatives and therapies, using water as the main source and base of these.

The word Spa with which it was decided to name these institutes is not at all arbitrary nor is it part of an acronym, but rather its use may be due to two situations, on the one hand, because that was the name given to the Belgian people who during the time of The Romans were known for the baths that were held there and on the other, because it is the Latin acronym for health through water.

In short, beyond these questions that exclusively refer to the denominative field and that on the other hand make us realize that in reality spas are not a postmodern invention that arose thanks to stress, but rather, it is a methodology which has now become fashionable and has been imprinted with sophistication and exclusivity given the high price that must be paid to access this service, but in reality the invention is older than water, the basis of the treatments.

Tensions, economic and family worries, among others, are the main causes of stress and this is the main reason for attending a spa.
