The history of spa therapy and the many associated treatments can be traced back thousands of years.

In most spas, the emphasis is on water in some form, either from an artificial source or using mineral water from natural sources such as a spring, lake or sea. In other spas the focus is on therapeutic ingredients unique to them, such as mud, or the environment or the health-giving properties of grapes.
