Many cognitive psychology studies show that pleasant sensory experiences and positive emotions most effectively support learning and memorization.

Effort should always be combined with relaxation, including mental relaxation. Long hours of listening, taking notes, and focused discussions are a big strain on our minds. Afterwards, we feel tired, fatigued, sometimes even headaches. For some, a way to unwind will be going out for a drink and chit-chatting in a group; for others, the dream way to spend time will be a stay in the SPA zone. The scent of essential oils, dim lighting, and atmospheric music alone will have their effect here, but we look for even more.
Body treatments always soothe the senses, so when opting for a relaxing full-body massage or candle massage, we can expect not only muscle relaxation, pain reduction, and improved blood flow but also calming the whole organism, and thus a tired head. A perfect idea for relaxation after a conference would also be a relaxing foot and back massage, often stiff or swollen after hours of sitting. Where is the best place to organize a high-level conference offering a rich SPA zone?
