Are you feeling the stress from the holiday rush already? It won’t be a surprise if you do. The traffic alone can be toxic to your nerves already. Then there’s also the holiday crowd that seems to be everywhere nowadays. But don’t let these holiday woes zap the joyful spirit of Christmas because there are ways to beat the stress this season. One practical way to deal with holiday stress is to indulge in relaxing spa treatments in the Metro.
Rush hour traffic is one of the top stressors during the holiday season. Unfortunately, one can’t avoid it when you have events to attend and shopping errands to do. Instead of stressing yourself in the car, spend your time in a spa while waiting for the traffic to ease. There are 30 minute to 3-hour relaxing spa treatments that are available in wellness centres found in the mall. Such treatments can be a combination of bath and massage, aromatherapy, scrub, sauna, or detox treatments. A simple steam bath not only relaxes the body but also helps cleanse the skin, remove toxins, and boost the immune system. You can take your pick among different spa treatments like Detox Therapy, Herbal Wraps, and different types of massages.
If these short term measures aren’t enough to wash away your holiday stress then there are wellness programs that you can try. These are relaxing spa treatments that can last for at least a day up to about a week’s stay in a spa resort. Instead of just baths and scrubs, a weekend stay in a spa resort includes meal plans, fitness, and wellness programs that are tailored for you. Some of the common wellness programs available today include Detox Programs, Weight-Loss Programs, and Health Optimization Programs. However, there are also spa and wellness centres that offer specialized services including the latest trends in spa treatments.
Aside from conventional spa treatments, there are also new trends that have emerged in recent years. These include Forest Bathing, Silent Spa Treatments, and Himalayan Sound Bath. Forest Bathing Treatments usually involve outdoor meditation and yoga, nature walks, and bathing out in the open sky. Those who would like to tune out from the noise can benefit from Silent Spa Treatments. In this type of treatment guests surrender their devices upon arrival and are treated with relaxing massages while in total silence. In contrast, a Himalayan Sound Bath makes use of sound waves to cultivate inner calm.
