THEORETICAL BACKGROUND

SPA

Spa is a health facility offering treatments, therapies and relaxation systems, using water as the main base. There is no known origin of the word "spa.” Some attribute the Belgiantown of Spa, which was known in Roman times for its baths, while others speculate that comes from the Latin abbreviation of the phrase "Salutem per aquam", or "health through water. "
According to the Royal Spanish Academy of Language, the term Spa is originally a place name that of a spa located in the province of Liege (Belgium), famous for the curative properties of its waters since Roman times. From the seventeenth century - as documented by the Oxford Ingles Dictionary - is generalized as the common name for hot spring spa in English or facility, spa, and then spreads to other languagesIts use inSpanish is veryrecent, sometimes capitalized, all uppercase and other SPA, which some explain as an acronym (salus per Acquam). There is no reason to use the capital, if it is lexicalized as a common name, spa.
Today, said of all those health and leisure facilities, which use water therapy, the modalities of pools, Jacuzzis, hot tubs, jets and sauna without using medicinal waters, in which case it would be a spa. The concept eventually expanded to other techniques such as aromatherapy, massage and Reiki types.
Spa is also known as a swimming pool with hot tubs different nozzles with Chroma therapy lighting system and some incorporate an induction system to provide aromatherapy scents into the water.
The main difference between a spa and a spa or hot spring in the first is that water is common, while in the past the water has medicinal mineral properties.






What is a spa?

It is a place to apply various treatments, therapies and relaxation systems, using water-based, all focused on the physical, mental and spiritual person.
A few years ago going to a spa was a luxury and that it could also just give women an option today for men to help counteract the effects of a stressful lifestyle, and secondly, that of entrepreneurs, especially health lovers, this is a very good business opportunity.
Within this market there are three types of spas:
Day-Spa (Day Spa) and urban: In this service is provided on the same day, usually this method is more concentrated in urban areas.
Destination Spa: In addition to the services of a spa, offers lodging, usually the destination spa is located inside hotels, resorts or tourist attractions.
Medical Spa: A spa also offers medical treatment and medication under a doctor's supervision. In this type of spa you will find applications in ever greater demand for botox, facelifts, liposuction, liposculpture, and anti-aging treatments.
In our country are open to the public more than 1.500 Day Spa and Destination Spa plus 300, with Mexico in this field worldwide leader followed by Thailand with 230.
For its part the medical spa operation in our country is lower, there are only 40, yet it is there porting segment is registering a higher growth rate above 50% annually and it should be noted also that 90% of these businesses are led by Mexican entrepreneurs.









The opinion that we have according to the readings on the spa, is that everyone has a single objective which is the relaxation and health. spas are usually used for people to visit and feel better both physically and mentally as to what we can say that mental help spa somehow forget our problems, with systems suitable for this relaxation in As for the physical we can deduce that there are an infinite number of things and body treatments actually most of the spa focus more on the physical because that's what most people like.
