Kanno Thalasso Okinawa

Well, we just got back from getting pampered at Kanno Thalasso Okinawa! It was AMAZING. Seriously, I feel soooooo relaxed right now and it was the perfect way to end our long weekend. I'm not sure if you've ever heard of thalassotherapy (I never had,) but this is what this specific spa resort specialized in. The word 'thalassa' comes from the Greek and means 'sea'. Basically, thalassotherapy is the medical use of sea water. At the resort there were about 14 jacuzzis, a few jet massage hot tubs, a pool, and even a water slide (that was our favorite.) And all of these were filled with salt water. It wasn't as salty as swimming in the ocean, but you could really feel your pores opening up. They also had a couple of saunas. One was an herbal mist sauna. There were even some pools with herbs in them. You could go outside on the terrace and sit in some jacuzzis while looking out over the ocean. It was totally relaxing. We really appreciate Kyle's boss for the thoughtful gift! We couldn't bring our camera inside the place, but here we are on the outside. :)
