Night in day spa


Night in day spa
The Secret behind an exceptional holiday is variety. And variety, for a regular nightgoer, means keeping away from the usual night scene- bars, clubs, live shows- on certain nights.

In Chiang Mai, there are a thousand and one ways to pleasurably spend the night, away from (scantily clad) girls and booze. A clean- even healthy- way to enjoy the night, so to speak.

One such place of clean indulgence is the spa.

A spa, in modern parlance, could mean anything and everything. Unlike in the past when a spa meant only one thing- a healing bath. 




Today’s spa has become more varied in domain and purpose. It has become a place to go for many other things. A business traveler goes to it to minimize jet lag. A mother of three relishes a spa session primarily to have time for herself. A group of friends sometimes go for it as part of a birthday celebration. A man with back pain goes there to seek relief, so is a teenager troubled with acne or a weekend warrior sore from overexertion. In some cases, even a man deciding to quit smoking enters a spa. So does a busy executive wanting to rediscover his spirituality.

Little wonder even in Thailand you will find a dizzying array of spa types- resort spa, natural spring, spa, salon spa, wellness spa, hotel spa, health spa, dental spa, the ubiquitous day spa, and-of late- nail spa.

If you just want a little break from a tiring day of sightseeing or shopping, you will find a visit to a day spa far better to unwind than sitting it out in a noisy bar.

There’s nothing awkward about going to a day spa in the evening. Most day spas in Chiang Mai are open till 10pm. In fact, its name has nothing to do with time, or with light or darkness. A day spa is simply a sanctuary where you put on a robe and slippers to enjoy cutting-edge treatments in skin care, body care and a wide variety of health and aesthetic maintenance services.

In short, a place for unequalled body care and pampering.
