1. SHA Wellness Clinic: Spain

You won’t go kicking and screaming to Alicante, Spain, a city on the country’s eastern coast that just so happens to border the Mediterranean Sea.

SHA welcomes its guests for more long-term stays than other spas, and their menu includes days-long detox and fitness programs for those ready to really rejuvenate themselves. Of course, you don’t have to stick around longer than a few hours if you want to dip your toes into a pedicure tub, breathe deeply at the oxygen bar, or replenish healthy skin cells with a facial.

6. Deep Ocean Spa: Bora Bora, French Polynesia

Your computer might have a photo of Bora Bora as one of its factory-loaded screensavers.

Gaze into the enchantingly blue depths while you have the spa’s signature Deep Blue Massage, which incorporates marine-harvested ingredients to authenticate your island-inspired treatment.
