Never been to a spa? Do you want to know what to expect? Do you want to
know what it is all about? In this day and age when Day Spas are
cropping up all over the country, the average person really does not
know what it is all about. It is important that if you are going to go
to a Day Spa that you know what is expected of you in order for you to
have a great relaxing time.
As a guest at a spa it is important for you to arrive early for your
appointment. This way, you are able to relax and prepare yourself for
the activities that you have planned for the day. Most Day Spas
generally require you to get completely undressed for your body
services. You do not have to worry, the therapists are professionals
and they will keep your body draped, exposing only the area that they
are working on. However, keep in mind, if you have a body scrub, body
wrap or any hydrotherapy, you will not be draped in order to allow your
body to get maximum benefits. In some places, swimsuits are an option.
You need to talk to the facility.
During the services, you need to make sure to provide adequate feedback
to your therapist. This way, they know if you are comfortable or if
anything is bothering you. Understand that this is a professional spa
therapy business and do not expect anything but therapeutic or spa
services.
It is important to make sure that you can relax completely. Let the spa
professional pamper you. Keep in mind that while you are in the spa,
there are also others that are there to relax too. No children should
attend the spa unless they are getting a service. They should never be
left unattended as this can be very disrupting to others. Make sure
that you are aware of where the public places are and that you are
respectful to others. After your session, make sure that you leave the
treatment area within a reasonable amount of time as it will need to be
prepared for the next client.
It is common practice in spas to make sure to tip the therapists. A
good rule of thumb is to tip 15% of the total cost of the services.
This is usually about 10 to 15 dollars per hour treatment. There is
usually a tip envelope at the front desk for you to leave a tip. You do
not have to worry about carrying around money while you enjoy your
services. Make sure to check to see if you spa includes the tip in the
cost of the price.
Remember that you are there to enjoy and relax. You need to remember
that any unacceptable behavior will be frowned upon and could possible
get you removed from the premises. You need to make sure that you come
in when you have an appointment, that you are in full stock of you body
and mind, and that you do not exhibit any lewd, demeaning, or abusive
behavior towards any employee or customer. If problems do arise, make
sure to address it with the manager or owner of the spa in a respectful
and agreeable way.
