If there’s any industry that understands looking dapper, it’s the spa industry. But one thing you probably don’t know as much about is a destination spa. Sure, they focus on a posh spa lifestyle, but central to their values are focusing on holistic health and wellness from a natural perspective.

At Chicago area’s Heartland Spa, that is definitely the focus: clean, healthy eating, a focus on fitness, nutrition classes, yoga, and of course occasionally pampering yourself.

I was fortunate to enjoy my first ever spa visit. The highlight, without a doubt, was my first spa procedure. I decided to pick the messiest option: a mud wrap (complete with salt scrub.) Let’s just say it was pretty epic, and I now fully understand why people love spas so much!

Looking forward to showing you some of the footage we shot at Heartland soon!
