A lot of people believe that physical and spiritual purification can be achieved through bathing in a particular spring, well, or river. Since pre-historic times man had high hopes in getting a cure of some ailment by travelling to hot or cold springs. This ritual purification exists in various native civilizations as well as various religious ceremonies such as Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, Christians, and Muslims. Many of these bathing rituals are simple in practice. As opposed to these simple bathing rituals, more elaborate rituals were practiced in Ancient Egypt, pre-historic cities of the Indus Valley, and in Aegean civilizations. Despite the complexity of these ancient bathing rituals, very little building construction around the water was constructed by ancient people; instead, they only built temporary construction.
Nowadays, spa treatments in a form of therapeutic baths have always been very popular in Europe.

However, spa treatments in the US have regained its popularity due to the increasing focus on health and wellness.
