The very best. A phrase that’s overly used by things that barely meet the standard of being good—let alone the best.
The very best restaurant. The very best hotel. The very best dish. The very best park.
What is the best? To achieve this, a business or service should cross every
personal T and dot every indulgent I. Honestly, there are a ton of good, very good,
and dare I write it, best places to experience things in San Diego.
But to be ranked THE VERY BEST, well, that honor belongs to only a few elite local establishments. And they are all found on this blog. Enjoy.
Follow this local San Diego Blog and plan to live the very best life.
Right after a strenuous physical workout (like weightlifting, HIIT, spinning), the body accumulates lactic acid which, in turn, depletes muscles—causing that sore feeling. And just like those muscles, the brain too requires a moment of rest and relaxation. That’s why we’ve compiled three reasons why you need to “spa your bain” into rest. And best yet, at the end of the article included our top pick for the best Spa in San Diego to find such a mental reprieve.
Fill Up the Brain Fuel Tank.
Yes, we know that technically blood is the fuel of the human body, but scientists have also deduced that oxygen levels in the body correlate with higher levels of brain activity. That doesn’t mean one should go out into the woods and start hyperventilating, what it does mean is that moments of relaxation and controlled breathing ease the stress we put on the brain on a daily basis. Some spas, like one in Spain, have even taken to producing machines to assist in oxygenating brain cells by a procedure called Brain Photo Modulation. This allows the brain to perform better, have more energy, and create a more positive state of mind.
Alleviate the Brain’s
Hidden Scars
Cut yourself with a knife and you put on a band-aid. Break a bone and it’s possible you’ll need to wear a cast. But what about the brain? Does it not scar? Yes, yes it does. According to the American Health Association, three out of five Americans will develop some sort of brain disease in their lifetime. Researchers are now turning to spas as an aid in combating this type of disease, especially the now-famous term “brain fog.” Anxiety is at an all-time high for adults and many people are turning to relaxation as a way to destress as much as possible. Dr. Bruno Ribeiro do Couto states, “We need to balance our life and manage the internal situation of stress that can develop disorders, such as brain fog that many of us may experience. This often manifests as trouble concentrating, scattered thinking, feeling dull and unmotivated, experiencing poor memory and forgetfulness, and generally having cloudy thoughts.” Spa’s have seen a recent resurgence in treating this “brain fog” disorder and allow patients to return to a life of mental and emotional normalcy.
