健身俱樂部/露天水療浴場

Explanation:
健身俱樂部是健身房之類的設施，露天水療浴場顧名思義就是在露天之下的設施。兩者說來都是健身的地方，但性質很不一樣，名稱上已經說明了不少。

健身俱乐部/日常式水疗

Explanation:
什么是SPA
SPA为“solubrious par aqua”的缩写，意思为“平衡健康之水”，现代人以次代指一种针对人体的治疗方法，也称“水疗法”，即以水为媒介，利用人与水的接触，使水中含有的一些对人体健康有益的成分通过亲和渗透作用进入人体，达到治疗或美容美体的目的。现在的SPA概念又有较大的延伸，有人称其为“五感疗法”，既通过人体的五大感官功能：视觉、嗅觉、听觉、味觉、触觉的感知来达到身心俱畅的感觉。水疗是SPA最普遍的形式。

目前的SPA可以分为6类：

1、Resort SPA(度假式SPA)以度假、疗养为主，与风景、温泉结合，一般坐落在风景优美的温泉疗养区；

2、Destination SPA(功能式SPA)以理疗慢性病为主，在日本被称为“方外疗法”，即处方外的治疗方法，也多开在疗养区；

3、Club SPA(俱乐部式SPA)以健身运动、减肥为主，多开在城市中；

4、Hotel SPA(酒店式SPA)在酒店里放松、休假；

5、Day SPA(日常式SPA)美容中心或SPA水疗中心提供的一种便捷的身心修护服务，顾客可以享受专业的SPA服务；

6、Home SPA(家居式SPA)，到SPA专卖店购买所需的Home SPA用品，利用工作之余或假期，在家动手DIY做SPA。相关：HOME SPA－身心宠爱之旅

The term spa is traditionally used to mean a place where water that is believed to have special health-giving properties occurs. This is usually a mineral or hot spring, and can include cold water treatments. The term is derived from the Belgian town of Spa. Contrary to popular belief, 'sanus per aquam' is not the source for spa, but a false etymology or backronym.
