2008 Vancouver Official Visitors Guide - (Page 49) See & Do Spa Treatments When your body needs a tune-up, the place to be is the spa. Like a repair shop for your world-weary body, spas can make you feel new again. After a day on the slopes or a night on the town in Vancouver, nothing’s better than hitting the spa and discovering a whole new you. For every symptom and syndrome, there seems to be a spa treatment to make you feel whole again. Got flight fatigue? No problem. Just hit the spa and get an anti-jet lag aromatherapy treatment or an anti-swelling leg treatment. Thirsting for a tropical getaway? Try a coconut mango body buff or massage. Showing your age? Select from an endless list of age-defying treatments sure to make you feel young again. One of the latest trends in spa treatments is the spa party. Get a group together and hit the spa for a custom package of treatments perfect for birthdays, showers and weddings. Many spas welcome groups and will take care of all the details and planning, giving you a chance to seek that blissed-out experience you’ve been craving. There was a time when going to the spa was mostly for women. Those days are a thing of the past, with several Vancouver spas offering gender-specific treatments such as gentleman’s facials, massages and hand treatments.
