Most Expensive Spas

Cityscape of Spa, Belgium

The term spa comes from a town in Belgium called Spa. During medieval times, iron deficiencies were cured by drinking iron bearing or chalybeate spring water. The mineral springs in Spa, Belgium was famous for the origin of the term “spa”. From then on, the word spa was regarded as any place that has a mineral or medicinal spring. History and Origin of Day Spa   Where it Came From and Why?
In modern times medical water threatments such as thalassotherapy are generally a luxury afforded to those with some measure of surplus wealth. That’s certainly the case with the world’s most expensive spas.
Surprisingly, the three most expensive spas in the world are all located in the US. One of them is in California’s Bay Area. The Grand Luxe Facial, offered by Spa Radiance in San Francisco, includes Diamond Peel Microdermabrasian, which seems to involve sanding—er, exfoliating your face with tiny diamonds, Microcurrent Disencrustation to remove blackheads and sebum deposits, treating your eyes with caviar and LED light therapy to counteract sun damage. The process entire process takes three hours to complete and costs $750.

 

New York’s Mandarin Oriental offers an even longer treatment. Their Art of Indulgence mostly involves massages but also includes exfoliation and both a manicure and pedicure. At $1,034, this five-hour session makes Mandarin Oriental the second most expensive spa.

The most expensive spa in the world, however, is located in Florida. Available only to guests of the Hotel Victor in South Beach, Spa V offers a bath filled with nearly 350 gallons of Evian mineral water then showered with rose petals. The bath is creatively referred to as the Evian Bath and costs a phenomenal $5,000.

Extravagant Spa Treatments

Six of the Most Expensive and Extravagant Spa Treatments in the World

Spa Treatment 1. Get a Facial Made of Gold



At UMO America in Beverly Hills, California facials include 24-karats of gold. Using gold for beauty is nothing new, Unfortunately gold is not easy to use, as it must be dissolved first to easily spread across the skin. To do this, Umo America uses innovative Japanese technology called Gamma PGANano Mist technology. Gamma PGA (Pure Natural Hydration) is more elastic than collagen and more hydrating than Hyaluronic Acid. It comes from Japanese soybean health food called Natto Gum. Natto Gum has no preservatives and is 100% natural. THE PRICE: $7,000
