ONE of the region’s leading spas is hoping to raise awareness of the benefits regular visits can have on the whole family, as National Spa Week approaches.
The award-winning Spa at Ramside, at Ramside Hall Hotel, Golf and Spa, is keen to encourage more people to enjoy the physical, mental and emotional benefits of regular spa time.
With National Spa Week – organised by the UK Spa Association – due to take place from 30 October to 5 November, chiefs at Ramside hope to raise awareness of the facilities available, and let people know how important taking time out to relax and unwind can be for the whole family.
“The benefits of enjoying your local spa are far too important to miss out on,” said Spa director Joanne Green. “People often think spa time is something just for ladies who lunch, but that’s not true.
“There is no reason why it can’t be something that the family can enjoy once a month or so, as a way to spend quality time together while getting all the benefits a spa visit can bring.”
The Spa at Ramside offers unrivalled facilities, with five pools, including a 25-metre swimming pool, bubble pool, hydrotherapy pool, outside vitality pool and an infinity pool.
Other facilities include a tepidarium, Himalayan salt steam, aroma steam, drench showers and herbal and sunken amphitheatre saunas along with mud Rasul chambers.
Wellness and wellbeing are also taken very seriously, and the spa was the first in the region to become Wellness for Cancer accredited, with staff fully skilled in treating and working with people affected by the illness.
“When it comes to wellness, we firmly believe this can be improved by regular spa attendance,” added Joanne. “We know that stress is a huge factor in many peoples’ lives today, and we believe that spas can play an important role in stress management.
“This year, National Spa Week is all about getting people in to try it for themselves, and we are happy to support this idea. Here at the Spa at Ramside, we run regular offers and incentives to members and prospective members, and we hope that more people will consider dropping in either across the week or at any time, to try for themselves.”
