Winter’s cold, dry weather can be terrible for your skin. You can rejuvenate at one of these spas in Northern Virginia, where you can find a sauna or steam room to work up a sweat and replace that winter gray with a healthy glow.
Spa World
The Bade Pool and Sauna has a number of different water treatments, including the 3-D Basher Wall. It has a water curtain where you can sit for five minutes at a time (picture one of those mushroom waterfall features at the public pool). If that sounds like a little much, there’s also a relaxing humid and dry sauna. 13830 Braddock Rd., Centreville
Massage Green Spa
Lower your blood pressure and improve your circulation when you book an infrared sauna treatment. The infrared light, which feels like heat, penetrates the skin’s surface and purportedly aids in reducing inflammation, improving circulation, and even contributes to weight loss. 3950 University Dr., Ste. 105, Fairfax
Calvert Rejuvenations
Boost metabolism and your immune system in Calvert’s Infrared Sauna. Book a quick 40-minute session in the little booth with an infrared light to burn up to 600 calories — sounds better than a cycling class. 485 Carlisle Dr., Herndon
The Ritz-Carlton, Tysons Corner
At The Ritz-Carlton locations in Tysons Corner and in Georgetown, you’ll find a sauna and steam room \ available for use for those with a spa reservation. 1700 Tysons Blvd., McLean
