Vogue magazine has launched its first-ever global spa guide -- a compendium of the 100 best spas worldwide. “There is a lot out there in the world of wellness, and we have sorted the cryo from the cold plunge, the infrared treatment from the IV infusion,” write the guide editors. “If your path is a more holistic one, there’s something for you here, as well. Creating this guide has taken us to some very interesting places, and raised some questions that aren’t just about buffing your skin or toning your muscles, but what makes us truly feel our best.”

To put together the guide, Vogue tapped the expertise of its editors worldwide and put together a global look at “the very wide world of wellness,” from an Alpine retreat where clothing is mainly optional to an underground oasis in the heart of London, and many places in between.

Each location is accompanied by detailed reviews and recommendations that highlight its unique features, available facilities, sustainability credentials and standout treatments, demonstrating why each deserves a place in the compendium.

“Whatever path you chose, may it be a restful and fulfilling one,” the editors wrote. “There is no wrong way to relax.”
