‘Luxurious baths that offer relaxation’. This could be one the best terms to define spa in short. Although the previous blog discussed all about spa and its benefits, it would be fair enough to comprehend the origins of spa and how it evolved over the centuries. Read on to know more.

The Root
The term is derived after a town named Spa in Belgium, whose name is known back from Roman times. Most popularly it is claimed that the acronym of spa was derived from a Latin phrase ‘salus per aquam or sanitas per aquam’, meaning “health through water”.

The Practice
Spa therapies have existed since the classical times when taking bath with water was considered as a popular means to treat illnesses. Many people around the world believed that bathing in a particular spring, well, or river resulted in physical and spiritual purification. Later, the Greeks began bathing regimens that formed the foundation for modern spa procedures. These people utilized small bathtubs, wash basins, and foot baths for personal cleanliness.
Although spa was practiced for various proposes, the ultimate aim is to provide luxury and relaxation. Centuries back the practise of spa varied at several places with different practises, but now, jumping forth, spa now has gained importance as a part of personal well-being.

Spa and India
Luxury has become a crucial part in people’s life these days. If we push back to our ancestors’ period, spa existed even there. But the use of bath tubs, medicated oils, came only recently. But how did spa exist back then?
Massaging the body, hair with hot oil and applying pressure to body’s muscles like feet, thighs, neck, shoulder, to ease the discomfort was the practise previously. This was followed by a nice hot water bath, easing the tensed muscles and offering relaxation. Such practises lived in India even before the luxurious spas of these days have come up. That’s how spa happened at everyone’s home those days.

People, Preferences and Prejudice
Previously spa is believed to be a costly affair. It is still believed that only the rich can afford such luxuries. This prejudice perhaps changed after a number of spas began offering various services in reach of everybody. People’s desires are endless and that’s why spa these days is considered essential, chucking off the past prejudgment. Spa is still believed to be a luxury aimed at relaxation.

The advancements in Spa culture
Beginning with the home massage times to jumping to luxurious spa sessions of these days, Spa advanced so much. Although the procedure remains same to one point, the lavishness and comfort are added benefits. These days a majority of the spa’s offer services that aim at customer’s relaxation, just like at Somara. Beginning from the oil that is used for the massage to the music that runs during the massage, Somara’s journey over the last three years was only at providing customer’s satisfaction.

Like how Spa advanced so much in terms of the service, the products, the massage and the overall procedure, Somara also progressed in terms of providing the overall customer satisfaction.

Why Somara?
Not to jump into a different context, but after knowing so much about Spa and its evolution, it’s pretty fair to learn about Somara and how it progressed.
Back then when spa practises were doubted all around the country and where unhealthy practises existed, Somara was started by Saurabh Kumar, a MBA post graduate in marketing whose initial aim was to provide and practise healthy spa procedures. He wanted to understand and contribute so much to this fastest growing industry, which had lot of opportunities to provide best services. His experience is similar to the hospitality that is there in a spa industry and that’s why he intended to start Somara.
Two branches, one at Somajiguda and another at Gachibowli, Somara’s main target is ‘Customer Satisfaction’. With a team of 20 dedicated people who are well trained and aim at customer pleasure, Somara’s journey has always been challenging, yet accomplished.
