If Michigan seems a bit too blue-collar for the day spa concept, you’ve got another thing coming. Even in Michigan, we like a little pampering, whether it's a massage, or other beauty treatments. Therefore, plenty of places are on hand in Michigan for those who want that day of beauty, that stubborn kink in the back removed, or just a quiet place to relax for a couple hours. There's something for just about every taste here, so settle in, and let's run down 6 great spa options in Michigan!
Operating out of the former M Spa in Portage, Centre Spa and Wellness looks to help visitors find “their centre,” even as they're on Centre Road. A clever name, but there's more than funny nomenclature here as visitors have access to standard and couple’s massages, but also to prenatal massage, hot stone massages, steam therapy, and a host of other services.
If you're still in the Portage area, you've got an option for another exciting spa choice, and this one often unlike many others. Kalamazoo's Oasis Hot Tub Gardens has a particularly unusual bill of fare, in that visitors can rent a hot tub for a particular length of time. Choose from one of a variety of options, including indoor and outdoor, to sit and relax as the best in hot tub offers up its standard fare. It's like owning a hot tub, but without all the maintenance.
Regarded as St. Joseph's biggest name in spas, the recently-revamped Revive Self Spa recently added a slate of new services for visitors. Now featuring an array of aesthetic treatments from Botox to various medical peels to flotation therapy, UV tanning, massage and more, those who hit the Revive Self Spa will be able to do just what the name implies: revive the self.
Carrying on up the Lake Michigan coast, you'll reach Grand Haven, the next stop on your pampering tour, and the Nature's Envy Day Spa. A complete salon and day spa option, visitors get access to an array of treatments ranging from the standard haircut to even a complete mud bath.
Casino spas often go to great lengths, and it's a safe bet you'll find some of the best spas around at a casino. Grand Traverse won't disappoint. Check out the cherry infused massage, using cherry oil for a base, and that's just the start of the aromatic, massage-laden menu.
Naturally, the Detroit area has some world-class spas, and Beach House Day Spa might be one of the best, at least according to CityVoter, who gave this place top marks out of all the spas in the area. Head to Birmingham for this one, where the website has fully 11 pages' worth of spa menu. And what a menu it is. It starts off with makeup options, and segues into deep tissue and standard massage options. By the time you've reached the end, you're into brow shaping, maternity massage, and Asian cupping therapy options, showing that this place runs the absolute gamut.
