Looking for a good spa experience? It's not just about going someplace that has beautiful rooms or steam and sauna. The first way you can tell if you're going to have a good spa experience is to observe how you and other customers are treated. Look around to make sure all employees are treating their clients with respect.

Things to Look For in A Good Spa Experience:

The therapist should be professional, courteous, pleasant and cleanly dressed.

The treatment should start on time. Therapists should wash their hands before they touch you.

Therapists should follow your lead in terms of how much talk occurs during the session. They should not discuss their personal problems with you.

For a good spa experience, massage therapists should be sensitive to the kind of touch you want in terms of pressure. There should never be a sexual quality to their touch.
