Ever get to lunchtime and feel like you need a rest? Us too. That’s what makes an afternoon spa day the perfect treat.
A chance to relax and unwind after you’ve done the morning admin, or give yourself time to travel a little further afield and experience somewhere totally new without worrying about missing your treatments - not all spa days need to be full spa days.
From facials and afternoon tea to massages and mocktails, taking half a day to treat yourself is a fantastic opportunity to start creating new wellbeing habits; spoiling yourself once in a while in a way that might seem more manageable for your schedule and your budget.
Perhaps you will use it as an opportunity to have time to yourself, or maybe you will take a friend and have that meaningful catch-up you’ve been craving. Book half a day off work so you don’t have to eat into your holiday allocation to feel refreshed and rejuvenated, or get home in time for dinner with the kids after they’ve spent an afternoon hanging out with their friends.
An afternoon spa break can be perfect for a special occasion or spoiling a loved one, it can help you get ready for an event with a little professional polish, or simply be a chance to unwind and head home for a better night’s sleep.
Whatever you are in the mood for, there’s an afternoon spa day that’s perfect for you - just take a look!
