A client at a Kittery, ME spa.
Kittery is known for its mile-long stretch of outlet stores; popular brands made available at steeply discounted prices make for a veritable shoppers’ Mecca, right in Southern Maine. Many tourists choose to park their cars once and let their feet do all the work…which means many of these folks may need a bit of self-care after all that shopping.

Thankfully, Kittery and its surrounding environs are also home to a bounty of day spas and massage studios—because everybody knows that pampering therapy is the perfect way to baby your body and soothe your soul after all that retail therapy.
