You can learn a lot about a country from its health and beauty traditions. Are they solitary or social events? Is beauty the focus, or is health? Are ingredients chosen for their ubiquity or their rarity? Today, most spas incorporate global influences—you can get a Korean body scrub in Los Angeles, a Thai massage in Mexico or a Hawaiian lomilomi in Sweden. Consider spa menus today’s passports; each treatment a mini lesson in anthropology. @
The spa at the JW Marriott Ankara features a tranquil Turkish bath.
