Relaxation
In Okinawa’s resort areas, you can enjoy relaxing in a tranquil atmosphere amidst nature. In the hot springs surrounded by subtropical forests, you can enjoy baths and saunas while listening to the birds and murmur of flowing water. On the other hand, in an esthetic facility overlooking the blue ocean, you can receive treatment from a great selection of massage and treatment programs. Spas and Thalassotherapy using the bounties of the sea are also popular.
Experience the unique esthetic treatments of Okinawa
In Okinawa, unique beauty regimens using natural ingredients have been passed down for many years. Esthetic facilities and spas within the prefecture have a wide variety of services using original ingredients such as mozuku seaweed, Okinawa’s popular “Awamori” alcohol, and brown sugar lumps. The mud facial mask called “Kucha” is a long-loved beauty regimen since the Ryukyu Dynasty era. The fine clay particles delicately remove any waste products and pore-clogging debris and make the skin smooth. Refresh your mind and body with these special treatments featuring many local ingredients.
Refresh yourself with esthetic treatments all across Okinawa
Okinawa has a variety of relaxation facilities that take advantage of the unique aspects of each respective location such as beach resorts and subtropical forests.
