My friend asked me to post some information that might help people visiting San Diego find a day spa, like I recently did. Vacation.....time to relax and de-stress with a spa service. In the whirlwind of life there is nothing like taking time out to just relax.
A day spa can almost mean anything now a days. I know I have gone to what I thought was a day spa, and it turned out to be a small unit in an outdoor strip mall next to the grocery store. To me a day spa needs to either be within a high end mall, part of a luxury hotel, or holding its own in a building somewhere.
I know I have really enjoyed getting facials and other treatments at the spa when I come to San Diego on vacation. It makes me feel fabulous in every way. I hope when you take your next vacation you find a great day spa too.
Besides the day spa's location you have to consider their treatments. Look for natural or organic spa products. What ingredients do they use in their facial scrubs? And look at their online reviews. Nothing says more than people who have tried it. Look for originality in your day spa. If there are like 20 locations in the metropolitan area, you might want to stay away. Quality and quantity rarely go together.
Well, that's my best advice for vacationers going to day spas in San Diego and elsewhere. I hope it helps!
