One of Vermont’s top vacation spots is The Topnotch Resort and Spa at Stowe. Vermont’s resort getaways offer it’s guests several unusual but interesting treatments that are guaranteed to increase your energy, repress disease, boost your immune system, and restore your balance. Their massage therapists target neuromuscular tissues around your neck and back, loosening stiff areas and will leave you after the treatment relaxed and refreshed.
The word Spa is the Latin phrase for “solacium per aqua”, translated as “well-being through water.” It was common for Roman Legionnaires that are returning back from thick and bloody battles in ancient times to rejuvenate their bodies with baths at hot mineral springs. Romans in the ancient era understood the positive cleansing and restoring effects of water treatments. Therefore all modern spas are based upon some form of hot water treatment.
The Canyon Ranch Spa and Resort of Vermont, which is a offshoot of the Canyon Ranch of Tucson, Arizona, remains as Topnotch’s primary competitor. Canyon Ranch is highly focused on the idea of personal and physical transformation, with many customers calling it a cross between “boot camp and heaven”, staff members that are completely committed into providing top notch customer service outnumber their guests three-to-one. Because Canyon Ranch has at least two distinct locations across North America, these “resort spas” proudly distinguish themselves as an exclusive retreat that refreshes the mind and the body.
