Spa and massages, doing good for the body and the mind

June 20, 2024

By combining the benefits of SPA and Massages, we can obtain a significant improvement in physical… and mental health!

Some high-end hotels pamper their customers within a SPA whose setting makes you dream... and when the offer is rounded off by a quality menu - like in a hotel Jeu de Paume in Chamonix – we let ourselves be tempted!

The SPA since antiquity

The Egyptians were already using therapeutic baths for medicinal and hygienic reasons.

As for Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, he recommended sea bathing and hot baths to treat various illnesses.

Over the centuries, these practices have been refined and the “coaches” are true professionals who have followed specific training. 

The benefits of SPA

They are multiple. The heat of thermal baths is relaxing and reduces stress while improving blood circulation… which helps with the oxygenation of our cells and eliminates toxins.

This deep relaxation provided by the sessions of spa promotes a better sleep by reducing anxiety and tension… which should interest many city dwellers!

The benefits of massages

As for massages, they can target tension points and muscle knots, thus relieving chronic and acute pain. Massages decrease cortisol levels and increase production ofendorphins and serotonin, which improves mood and reduces anxiety.

And, above all, it is accepted that massage techniques can stimulate the immune system by promoting the circulation of blood and lymph.
