Pregnancy spa breaks in Liverpool

Most spas welcome mums-to-be from the second trimester and adapt their treatments for comfort, while heat experiences are generally best avoided, so it is worth checking each spa's pregnancy policy and with your midwife when you book. A pregnancy spa day also makes a thoughtful gift, and Spabreaks.com vouchers let the recipient choose their own date once they know how they are feeling. The city venues are easy by train, while a few of the best sit just outside and are simpler by car.

Particular favourites among Spabreaks.com customers here include Ruskin Boutique Spa, an intimate, treatment-led spa, and DoubleTree by Hilton Liverpool, a contemporary retreat with a hydrotherapy pool. Suites Hotel & Spa has a large indoor pool, Chill Out Spa in Knowsley is a relaxed treatment-led spa, and just outside the city Rowton Hall is a Georgian country house spa near Chester.
