Years of dealing with long and cold winters have given Mainers a special insight into rejuvenation. The people of Maine do summer like no others, and the spas that have cropped up along the coast reflect both their love of summer and their need for renewal.  Thinking of taking some time to recharge this summer?  A Maine vacation with spa visits may be just what the doctor ordered. For example, the Sebasco Harbor Resort in Sebasco, Maine offers spa services and amenities on 550 oceanfront acres on the coast of Maine. The hotel is an authentic Maine vacation resort with breathtaking views and a wealth of activities the entire family can enjoy.

What are some of the treatments available at Maine spas? The most popular service is a massage.  Massages are great for relaxation as well as helping ease your body towards alignment.  There are a variety of types of massages as well, everything from Swedish and deep tissue massage to aromatherapy and hot stone massage.  Some bodies respond best to deep pressure, while others open more with a gentler touch.  Want not try several types and see what is the best for you?

The second most popular spa treatment is a facial.  Facials are fabulous for taking care of your skin and keeping it healthy and glowing.  Facials are given by a skin care specialist, called an esthetician, who has gone through a professional training program in the field of skin care.  A facial begins with a thorough cleansing followed by exfoliation (removal of dead skin cells on the skin’s surface) and extraction (removal of blackheads or whiteheads). The best part is the facial massage, which relaxes you and stimulates your skin.  Finally, a mask and toners and creams end the session.

Other services are body treatments, which include body wraps and body polishes, waxing and hair removal, as well as energy work and craniosacral therapy.

Why not enjoy the best of both worlds and book a stay at a Maine resort that offers spa services.  Sun, beach, ocean breezes and spa treatments may be just what the doctor ordered.
