What does Spa mean?

Everything started from the Belgium town Spa. The first water resort was found there ever since roman times.

The abbreviation Spa means Sanus Per Aquam or Health through water. Today there are many different spa programs – procedures with mineral water, sea water or seaweed, underwater massages and aromatherapy.
