Spa package deals are very popular this time of the year. Many hotels, resorts and day spas offer spa packages throughout the year. Hotels and resorts tend to have the most amenities, however, they are usually more expensive and require an overnight stay to realize big savings.

Others focus on individual massage therapy and can’t accommodate groups of 1/2 day retreats.
A spa package deal is a good way to go beyond the basics and get more value. According to the American Massage Therapy Association (AMTA), ‘over 38 million Americans get a massage at least once a year‘, yet most people fail to take advantage of spa package deals to save on multiple visits.
