Hello everybody. My name is Anxo and i work for a Spa company.
Traditionally, a spa is a place with hot mineral water to have medical baths, so spa were related to health tourisim and main customers were old people. Now a days, some spa have kept the old idea of being a place where ill people go to improve their health state by having hot mineral water baths, but many others have developed this concept to create the new spa resorts, which are more related to wellness, beauty and relax than health. Inside this places, it´s very common to find big swimming pools with a lot of muscle relaxing elements such as water jets, bubble jets, waterfalls, jacuzzi, bubble beds and others. Usually there are finish sauna and hamann or wet sauna inside them too . Several types of massage and many other body and facial treatments are available to the customers . Due to this big offer, spa customers form at present an assorted group of people, they aren´t just the sick elderly as they used to be, they are middle aged women, couples, families, old people or young sportsmen. Almost any kind of person can enjoy and feel better inside a spa.
Mental stress caused by work and life is the most common modern disease, and everybody wants eliminate it, that´s why they go to the spa, to relax. Many tourism business men have realised about this and have built one in their hotels, and many tourists go a certain hotel because it has a spa and other hotels in the same region don´t.
Due to all this reasons, i think that spa have become an important tourism resource.

I live in Galicia and we are very lucky because there are a lot of termal and mineralized waters here. There are a lot of hotels and places where you can go and take a breath. The problem is THEY ARE SO EXPENSIVE! It´s difficult, if not, impossible for working people to take a termal vacation. Only if you are old and take part of a day tour payed for Administration! So, I am planning to go next vacation time to Ourense open-air termal area. It´s free!
