Tonight I went to an Arabic spa recommended from our program director. The student package was only 21 euros, and it included a massage and access to the three different temperature pools. The place was set up Arabian style with dimmed lights and marble walls and floors. They took us to the back to change our clothes then showed us the different areas we could experience. The first room was the ice bath. I didn't go to that one because I hate cold water. I can barely get into a swimming pool. The second room had a larger pool and, it was the hottest bath like a jacuzzi. Then the last room was the medium temperature bath, which was deeper, but the temperature was just right. Not too hot or too cold. Each of us was given a number, and when it was called, we went to the section where the massages were held. The masseuse called me over, and I laid on the table and received the best massage of my life. He used an oil that felt like a mild IcyHot. Once it was over I went into another room that had a large flat hot rock in the middle and laid on it for a few minutes. The whole packaged lasted for an hour and a half. Before exiting the spa area, we had mint tea waiting for us. That tea was the best tea I have ever drank. I'm going to find out where i can purchase it and bring some back to the U.S. It is amazing! The entire experience was absolute bliss. I am definitely going to be spoiled before I go back home.
If you are ever in Spain you have to experience this! I plan on bringing my mother when she comes to visit.
