Three Spa Services That Even Macho Men Will Love

Embracing health and wellness is just as important for men as it is for women.

Most people view a day spent at the spa as a women-only affair; however, that stereotype is quickly going out of style! While the spa-going tradition has mostly involved women, an increasing number of men are beginning to realize that health and wellness are equally as important for them as for the lovely ladies in their lives.

“It is important for men to know that the spa isn’t just for women anymore. Health and wellness are just as important for men as the pampering and grooming offered in a spa,” Amanda Rigby, spa director at The Spa and Salon at Garden of the Gods Club, said. “Therapeutic massage, reflexology, and the use of essential oils can ease stress and lower blood pressure. Men are quickly becoming one of the largest groups to use and purchase skin and body products.”

If the man in your life has yet to experience the benefits of a spa treatment, we’ve listed below some particularly masculine spa treatments recommended by our spa director, Amanda. A guy doesn’t have to be what society has coined a “metrosexual” to enjoy these services; these services are ideal even for the most macho of men!  Keep reading to learn more.

1. Detoxifying and de-stressing treatment. This hour-long service is jam-packed with treatments that are specially designed to respond to the needs of a man’s skin, including specially formulated products such as antioxidant-rich serums and deep pore cleansers.
