Where did Galentine's Day come from, what's it really about, and how can you make the most of it?

Say it with Spabreaks.com - here's a little inspiration for treatments, experiences and romantic spa destinations.

From sky high city spa breaks with plenty of Champagne to holding court under tropical palms over cake and cocktails in Manchester - here are five of our favourite festive spa afternoon teas.

Corporate spa vouchers and gift cards are the perfect way to reward, incentivise and recognise staff, colleagues, business partners, customers and suppliers.

Spabreaks.com Founder, Abi Selby, talks about how buying a little less can mean giving a little more meaning to your nearest and dearest.

To celebrate our partnership with TEMPLESPA, and take it one step further, we have designed three unique gift boxes, only available through Spabreaks.com. Their fresh design and key product selection are the essence of spa - perfect for making your loved one feel totally spoiled and in the perfect headspace for a spa break.

Spa a thought this Christmas for those of us in need of a little R'n'R (which surely has to be most of us). From overnight spa breaks, to restful spa days or gift vouchers that give your loved ones the flexibility to choose where and when to get away, there is something for everybody and all budgets with Spabreaks.com’s gift options.

The shops are full of Lindt chocolates and Advent calendars in preparation for Christmas, and while we look forward to the Christmas holidays as a time for eating our favourite foods, spending time with loved ones and watching Love Actually on repeat, it's also a very busy period. So, here's a thought - do you need a rest before the holidays?

Perhaps you have a loved one with an upcoming birthday, or perhaps you're getting ahead of the game when it comes to purchasing Christmas presents - either way, we want our hard earned cash to be spent on something meaningful, we want to make maximum impact at a level of spending we feel comfortable with, and we want to give our friends and family something they will love.

Put Valentine’s Day to good use by thinking about those we love and planning time together in the not too distant future.
