ISPA's research shows that the No. 1 reason people go to the spa is to relax and relieve or reduce stress. Here are some other facts on stress:
1/3 of Americans are living with extreme stress and nearly half believe their stress has increased over the past five years. (American Psychological Association)

An Irish affair in the spas of Ireland - I search the world for unusual spa treatments. My best massage was in a remote area of Croatia where the masseuse, from Thailand, rocked me on her back. In Biarritz, France I was covered in seaweed wrapped in cellophane and left in a dark room where I swear I floated. And there is nothing more peaceful than an avocado body polish in a cabana overlooking the Pacific Ocean at the Bacara Resort in Santa Barbara.
Spa review Go au naturel at Jurlique Spa - The lowdown: Located on the second floor of the recently revamped Mayfair Hotel and Spa in Coconut Grove, the local outpost of the Australian spa chain is all about going au naturel (and we don't just mean the tiny paper thongs you'll be asked to sport).

Mandarin Oriental Riviera Maya, Mexico - USP Treatments inspired by traditional Mayan practices include a pick-your-own scrub from the herb garden, a tummy rub and a terrifying Temazcal Ceremony where you share a pitch black igloo shaped oven with a chanting shaman.
AMBIENCE A small tab on the Mexican-made towels reads: “The best things are in the detail” (my translation). This, I find, is true of the spa, from the bamboo sculpted fans to the petals strewn like confetti everywhere.

Therapy of the week: Hot stone massage, The Scotsman Hotel & Spa, Edinburgh - There is a volcano in the heart of Edinburgh. Thankfully, what is now Arthur's Seat in the centre of the Scottish capital last erupted more than 350 million years ago.
Strange then - and fitting - to be lying naked on a bed of soft towels in the shadow of that rocky outcrop, in The Scotsman Hotel's luxurious spa, being massaged with palm-sized, warm volcanic basalt stones.
Spas less vulnerable to ailing economy - If you're in business to sell cars, condos or cashmere sweaters in this economy, good luck. But in an ironic twist, peddlers of massages, facials and beauty treatments are still attracting customers despite the recession.

New Crystal Spa clearly delivers at Michigan's Crystal Mountain Resort - At Last." If the owners of Crystal Mountain Resort are humming this inauguration theme song of Barack and Michelle Obama, it's no surprise: After six years of planning, design and construction, the $5.5 million Crystal Spa has opened to the public.
