Spas in Barbados
Barbados is already one of the most relaxing places on earth, and everyone who visits this Caribbean paradise should leave the country with far more energy than when they arrived. Bajan spas are the cherries on top of the island's lustrous icing, and, although there may be nothing better than relaxing on a beautiful Bajan beach, spending time in a splendid spa surely comes close.
The facilities offered by a typical Bajan spa - as if these gorgeous complexes set against the brilliantly blue sky, the verdant green of the tropical jungle and the indigo of the never-ending ocean can be called typical - include such things as out-door hydro pools, steam rooms and thermal suites. Common personal services also on offer include manicures, pedicures and massages, and, if the average Bajan spa is anything like the west coast's Coral Reef Club, visitors are truly in good hands.

Several of the more popular Bajan spas form part of hotel/resort complexes, and one of the more well known is the Sandy Lane Spa, which is an integral part of the luxurious world offered to guests of the Sandy Lane Resort. Although this spa's opulently elegant decor may be to die for, evidence of the spa's true expertise can be seen in the variety of personal services on offer, not the least of which are the Rhassoul oriental steam bath experience, the hydrotherapy pool and the hot-and-cold water treatment that consists of showers, cold rooms and saunas.

Most spas also offer their guests access to on-site fitness centres where they can enroll for yoga or Pilates classes and, perhaps, complete a round or two on the gym's resistance circuit. The sheer range of personal services offered by the different spas can, however, often be overwhelming, and visitors should perhaps identify what they want before choosing their spa.
A casual glance at a list of Bajan spas will show that their basic services include microdermabrasion, ear candling, aromatherapy and body wraps not to mention the more exotic Shirodhara Balancing Technique treatments, Lomilomi and Indian Head massage services and Reiki full-body programs. Further services on offer at the average Bajan spa would include thalassotherapy - that which invokes the therapeutic properties of sea water - reflexology, bikini waxes and sea salt scrubs.

Barbados is the perfect place to kick-back and relax, and everyone should treat themselves to some time at a premier Bajan spa.
