Day Spas in Fort Myers

Day spas are just spas that derive their name because, due to the multitude of services that they offer, one could conceivably spend the whole day being pampered at one of these places. In Fort Myers, day spas are often found in hotels or resort and may have such amenities as saunas or steam rooms available to their clients and guests.

Massage Therapy Spas in Fort Myers

Massage therapy spa is probably a misnomer because, if the facility specializes in massage therapy exclusively, it is probably not a “spa” at all. Nonetheless, many massage establishments have the word spa in their name.   The word “spa” is thought to derive from the Latin phrase Salus Per Aquae meaning “health through water.”  Alternatively, it is argued that it comes from the town of Spa in Belgium that was famous during the times of the great Roman Empire for its baths.  Either way, massage has very little to do with water or bathing in your typical massage establishment today.  There are a number of massage establishments in Fort Myers that practice exclusively in the area of massage therapy. The trick is to find the right one for you.  When choosing a massage facility, please consider the experience and qualifications of your prospective massage therapist carefully. Choosing the right massage therapist  can make all the difference!
