SPA in a narrow sense is a beauty and health spa, including cold bath, hot bath, alternating hot and cold bath, seawater bath, hot spring bath and tap water bath, which can relax the body and mind to some extent.

Tightening muscles and nerves, eliminating toxins in the body, preventing and treating diseases, and massage with various aromatic essential oils will accelerate fat burning and have slimming effect.

Broadly speaking, SPA includes well-known hydrotherapy, aromatic massage, bathing, removing dead angles and so on. Modern SPA mainly realizes all-round relaxation through five sensory functions of human body: hearing (dietotherapy music), taste (herbal tea, healthy diet), touch (massage, contact), smell (natural aromatic essential oil) and vision (natural or imitation natural landscape, humanistic environment), and realizes the relaxation of body, mind and spirit. Now the SPA has evolved into a modern one. SPA is the most common form of spa. According to research, the name of SPA originated from a small town called "SPA" in Belgium during the Roman Empire, because there was a hot spring there, which was famous for its beauty and even for treating diseases. Only in modern times did scientists discover the secret of hot springs. The essential oil in the water comes from the soaking of thousands of flowers and plants on the local mountain in the upstream water source. So now people simulate the construction of similar environment and water quality to make it have a healthy and bodybuilding effect on the human body, which is the modern "SPA".
