- simultaneous fitness classes and programs to reduce stress
- massages and other therapeutic spa treatments
- sessions to ensure healthy lifestyles
Destination spas are often located in fairly remote areas and serve very few guests at a time. This helps maintain a calm and calm atmosphere that encourages relaxation and stress relief. They typically offer meals, activities, spa treatments, and classes as part of their overall package.

These spas stipulate a minimum length of stay to ensure that the client benefits adequately from their stay.
