Unwind, relax and rejuvenate reading this review

Advantages: Natural products you can trust, lovely staff, opportunity to relax
Disadvantages: not a day spa, and a bit pricy

...treatment. WHAT IS THE GREEN ROOM Green Room is owned by body shop. Uses only body shop products, upholds and promotes body shop values. It is not a big (proper) spa. It is rather a sort of beauty clinic. You come get your treatments and leave. So again it is not a day spa resort. WHERE IS THIS GREEN ROOM Well it was literally 3 shops away from the place where I work, so I could just pop in before or after work. The rest of you might not be so ...
...and Victoria. I went to the Richmond branch. I have to say it is very well hidden. There is a sign just above the Body shop, that reads Green Room, but I had to ask a body shop person for directions. It turned out that the little door inside the body shop was a secret passageway to a staircase to heaven (aka the Green Room). There was no sign on the door or anything like that, you could think it was a staff only door or something. I found that ...

Diamond review  A Spring Experience

Advantages: All the staff are very friendly and professional
Disadvantages: It is quite expensive

...had never been to Champneys Springs before and so was very excited as to what it would be like and wondering whether I might bump into a celebrity on my stay there. The resort is situated out in the countryside of Ashby de la Zouch in Leicestershire. FIRST IMPRESSIONS On entering the resort I felt like I had been transported into another world. A world away from problems, a very care free environment full of smiling faces and pleasant surroundings. ...
...FINAL IMPRESSION The Champneys Springs building is very well laid out making everything there very easy to find – which is important as the last thing you want when you come to a place to relax is to find your spending half your time getting lost. All the staff there are very professional and friendly and smartly dressed. The residents there are all very friendly and want to mix with others and chat, so therefore it doesn’t matter if you go there ...

Floating Saved Me From Back Surgery

Advantages: It's the most effective way I've found to relieve stress and back pain
Disadvantages: If you don't live near a float center, you need to own one

...that is constant about all flotation tanks is the high degree of Epsom salt used. This is what causes you to float above the water. By the way, floating above the water is the reason why a float tank must be enclosed. Otherwise, the air temperature would be much cooler than the water temperature and you wouldn't relax as deeply due to your muscles remaining tense. Having the air and water at skin temperature (94 degrees) creates the kind of comfort ...
...the growth of bacteria, making flotation tanks a cleaner environment than any swimming pool or hot tub. In addition, Epsom salt is also a mild muscle relaxant. If you float for an hour and then get a massage, you'll get far more value out of the massage because your muscles will already be warm and relaxed. I've compiled the best information I could find on the subject of floatation therapy and posted it at floatforhealth.net. I also compiled an ...

Eden Hall

Advantages: Lovely facilities and surroundings
Disadvantages: Treatments are a bit one-size-fits-all

Eden Hall in Nottinghamshire is a non-residential spa. It has lovely grounds, plenty of indoor and outboor activities eg. exercise classes, small gym, cycling and archery classes. It has a wonderful relaxation room which sent me to sleep. The food is excellent and included in the price of the day. A lovely three course meal plus a buffet. The pool area is the highlight. There is even a section where you can swim out of doors without getting cold. ...

A fantastic day for the girls-and boys!

Advantages: A totally relaxing experience, excellent staff and wonderful treatments
Disadvantages: pool a little on the chilly side and a bit clinical

...local options we decided on Matfen Hall, a well known hotel just a few miles off the A69 near Hexham, Northumberland. The spa had been recently renovated and from the pictures on the website and brochure was exactly what we wanted. The spa programmes - there were five of them, ranged from The Stress Soother to Versace Signature. Our choice was the Relaxing Touch mainly because it included face, body and head massges. All treatments use Versace or ...
...fresh afterwards. I left Matfen Hall intent on having one installed in my tiny en-suite at home. There was also a solarium at extra charge and a gym but we were there to relax! Yes all this and I haven't even mentioned the treatments! The first of which was a Relaxing Hot Stone Back Massage with an Indian Head Massage afterwards. The treatment began in the relaxation room where one could lounge, enjoy fresh fruit and chilled water before and after ...
