This section includes details of all the new game options available with The Sims 4 Spa Day. Images have been sized down in most cases, so click the images for a larger view.
 

 

The Spa Venue

When loading saved games that do not have a Spa Venue in the world, The Sims 4 will prompt you to use an automated lot placement to add one to your neighborhood. If you do not want to place one at that time, exit out and place the Spa at a later time via the “My Library” tab in The Sims 4 Gallery.
 

lot

 
Placing the pre-built lots are not your only option though. If you decide to build your own lot for the world you live in, the following requirements must be met for the community to be considered a Spa.

Meditation

Meditation is one of many ways for Sims to increase their Wellness Skill while maintaining a peaceful mind. Sims who reach a state of tranquility while meditating will experience a “Successful Meditation”. This provides some great benefits to your Sims, and also unlocks the act of levitation!
 
During successful meditation, Sims have a good chance of increasing other acquired skills, improving their relationships, finding forgiveness in their hearts for enemies, and thinking of ideas that result in increased performance at work or school. Additionally, If you’re looking to get around your neighborhood a bit faster, Sims can even acquire the ability to Teleport onto any public space of the active neighborhood.
 
Lastly, Sims who reach successful meditation with a high level Wellness Skill, have the ability to freeze their motive decay. This allows your Sims to enjoy relaxation without the need to replenish their needs. (NOTE: You may have to cancel and restart the meditation interaction once you level up in the Wellness Skill to activate this powerful benefit.)

Yoga

Yoga is yet another way to increase the Wellness Skill, while maintaining tranquility for your Sims. Yoga Mats can be purchased in buy mode and can be used anywhere your Sim takes them! Performing yoga not only increases Wellness, but also increases a Sim’s Athletic skill. Being Focused helps Sims perform at a faster rate.
 
Yoga can be performed by using the “Practice”, “Routine”, or “Pose” interactions. All interactions will run your Sim through a loop of different poses, but each provides different benefits for your Sims. The following poses are available when Sims perform Yoga and advance in the Wellness Skill.
 

Yoga 1 Greeting Pose Yoga 2 Corpse Pose Yoga 3 Downward Facing Dog Yoga 4 Half Moon Pose Yoga 5 Side Plank Yoga 6 Boat Pose Yoga 7 Triangle Pose Yoga 8 Tree Pose Yoga 9 Warrior Pose Yoga 10 Lord of the Dance Pose Sims 4 Spa Day Yoga 11 Bridge Pose Yoga 12 Handstand

 
Practicing Yoga will give your Sims a focused moodlet that will help increase their Wellness Skill at a faster rate, while Yoga Routines give an emotional boost. The following routines are available via the Yoga mat at any time.

Yoga Classes

Sims can attend Yoga classes when visiting the Spa! Yoga classes are announced by notification, and begin 30 minutes after they are announced. The Yoga instructor has a pink icon over their head, and Sims can “Join” the class by interacting with the instructor.
 
When classes begin, Sims walk up to one of the available Yoga mats and begin the class. Each class lasts approximately 90 minutes and costs §110 Simoleons. (Sims cannot join a class already in progress.)
 

07-14-15_2-18 PM

To do this, purchase the Instructor Zen Again Yoga Mat in Buy Mode for §140 Simoleons, and place it inside of a Gym or Spa. Once you’ve placed the Instructor’s Mat, an NPC will automatically spawn to conduct classes.

Massages

All Sims teen and older can give and receive a variety of massages. The quality of the massage is tied into the Wellness skill, and can leave your Sim with either a positive or negative moodlet.

Getting a massage even boosts friendship levels with whomever is giving you a massage. Below is a complete list of massages available in the game.

The Sauna

The Sauna is a relaxing object whose sole purpose is to ease your Sim’s tension. All Sims, children included, can “Relax” in the Sauna and enjoy a boost of happiness!
 
Sims with a Level 5 Mischief Skill can also “Sabotage the Sauna with Sulfur”. Sabotaged Saunas will release a yellowish, rotten egg smelling steam that makes Sims uncomfortable for up to an hour. Oh what fun!

Death by Sauna

Relaxing in the Sauna will give your Sims a boost of happiness, but spending too much time in the sauna will result in a very uncomfortable situation. Once a Sim has received the “Superfluous Steaming” moodlet, it is best to keep them out. If a Sim enters the Sauna before this 8 hour moodlet has lapsed, the Sim will die.
 

07-15-15_6-23 PM

 
Sims who die of excessive steam exposure end up as ghosts who are very hot and dehydrated. When this ghost comes into contact with water puddles, they have the ability to “Absorb” the puddle. How’s that for hydration!?
 

07-16-15_5-59 AM

 
 

 

Sauna Woohoo

Being in the Sauna can be a lot fun for Sims who want some alone time! Sims in a romantic relationship can use the Sauna to “Woohoo” or “Try for a Baby”. Talk about Hot and Steamy!
