Massages, exfoliation treatments, manicures and pedicures are just a few of the products which will be offered.  Specific health and safety guidelines have not been disclosed, though Disney does state: "We continue to keep the safety of our guests and cast members top of mind, and your experience may be different from your last visit." Reservations are available now for dates beginning January 26.  There is no word on a reopening for the spa at Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa or other locations around Walt Disney World. Both the Grand Floridian and Saratoga Springs facilities had previously operated under the name "Senses."
