Spa culture in the Czech lands and Central Europe can be traced back to medieval times when health-seekers visited natural springs in search of cures for a number of ailments. Today Prague has quietly built a reputation for high-quality beauty and wellness services, blending modern techniques with a strong tradition of personal care.

Across the city and beyond, salons, spas, and studios offer everything from precision haircuts and targeted skincare to immersive massage therapies. The locations featured here are known not just for results, but for their English-friendly staff who create a sense of calm and care in the process.

đź’…SPA AND SALON ETIQUETTE First, always make a reservation. Second, keep in mind that while tipping isn't mandatory it's customary to tip around 10 percent for services if you're satisfied. Some high-end salons and clinics include service fees in their pricing, so you can check the bill first. In spa settings, nudity is more normalized than in some countries, so don't be afraid to bare it all in the name of bliss!
