Pure Float // Vancouver
If you haven't tried floatation therapy in a sensory depravation tank (aka a "floating pod"), you definitely have to try it. Float in an Epsom salt bath that helps promote mental clarity and rejuvenate the body. Completely relax all your senses from your mind to your body and float off to another dimension.
Cost: $39/90 minute session with this Groupon
Radium Hot Springs // Radium
So again, my apoligies that Radium Hot Springs is not a spa, BUT it is one of Canada's largest hot spring pools. And when you're literally bathing in the earth's goodness, from the mineral waters to taking in the amazing sights all around you, you can hardly even bother to think about a spa. You've got all the spa you need right here.
Cost: $5.85/adult
