Regardless of the season, we are entitled to feel depressed or upset. In autumn and winter, the bad weather is to be blamed – too little sunlight, too much rainfall or snowfall, harsh wind and piercing coldness or frost. In summer or spring time, the bad mood gets those who don’t go on vacation or have just come back. Visiting a SPA centre is a great mood lifter. SPA treatments remind us of the summer trips and let us forget about the freezing cold outside. Moreover, they repair the body after winter and cure autumn depression.
