Spas of Berkeley Springs, West Virginia

"Taking the waters" at Bath, America's first spa town, records colonial visitors beginning in the 1740s and native tribes for countless centuries before. An exhibit at the Museum of the Berkeley Springs highlights bathing history.

At the heart of the centuries old spa industry is the warm mineral water of the Berkeley Springs. For more about the water check out:

Facts and Fictions About Berkeley Springs Water

In Berkeley Springs, bathing is a high art available year 'round. Choose from centuries-old historic baths in Berkeley Springs State Park, fed by the famed warm springs, as well as five contemporary spas offering a variety of health treatments.

Health and relaxation are primary concerns. The area boasts three times as many massage therapists as lawyers and is home to a unique manufacturer, retail shop and museum of homeopathic medicine.

WHAT IS A SPA?

In Berkeley Springs our five spas are facilities that offer a wide range of health and beauty treatments and programs. All are staffed by professionals and are open daily, year 'round. Appointments are recommended on weekends. Each spa provides services to both men and women regardless of where they may be lodging or whether they are simply in town for the day. Any required towels, robes or supplies are provided. Since there are many types of treatments, packages and prices, we urge you to check out each facility's Website then call them with additional questions and to arrange appointments. It is appropriate to tip the person working on you.
