spa days

Massage and facials

Spa days are occasions devoted to relaxation and personal care treatments—massages, facials, soaks, and the like—typically at a facility designed for such pampering.

The phrase often implies indulgence or self-care as a break from routine stress: I'm treating myself to a spa day for my birthday.

Can refer to visits at professional spas or improvised at-home versions with bath bombs and face masks.
