Connecticut's Mystic region has spas to wash your aches away

Every season is the right season to indulge in the comforts of spa treatments, but winter is an especially good time to offer aid and comfort to the physical self. Winter’s weather can bring on the blues or chase all but the most avid skiers or boarders indoors for comfort. For pure pleasure it is hard to top a two-hour massage or a day of expert pampering for the skin, hair, and nails, for women and men, as well.
VisitConnecticut.com can help you beat the winter blahs through these extensive listings of spas and their health and beauty services. Many spas, hotels, and resorts offer special packages that include overnight accommodations; access to fitness rooms, saunas, and whirlpools; massages and other services; and amenities like champagne, flowers, and chocolates. So sit back with a glass of wine and review below the great spa packages offer by these fine New England establishments.
