Everyone needs a bit of rejuvenation and refreshment to return to health following imbalances caused by stress, poor diet or a medical condition. Spas are known for their ability to the balance the mind, body and spirit – an ideal place to return to optimal health.
Spas boost self-esteem, relieve aching muscles and much more. For many individuals, the line between a day spa and a medical spa is a bit muddied. Also known as ‘med spas,’ medical spas are a hybrid between a medical clinic and a day spa that operates under the supervision of a highly trained and specialized medical doctor such as a plastic surgeon.
Medical Spa Services
Medical spas can treat conditions on your face and body like brown spots, redness, fine lines and wrinkles, loss of volume and broken capillaries that cannot be treated effectively by an esthetician. The med spa staff consists of doctors and medically trained employees.
The fundamental focus of a medical spa is to offer long-term solutions for a range of issues related to fat, cellulite, muscle, hair, unwanted capillaries, pigment, acne and wrinkles. Sophisticated medical equipment is often utilized.

Day spas come in a huge range of styles, but generally offer more straightforward treatments such as massages, manicure, pedicure, basic facials and body treatments like sea salt scrubs and mud wraps. Some spas offer more specialized treatments such as Thai massage, hot stone massage or reflexology.
