Couldn’t agree more. I have done quite a few spa visits for travel pieces and I’d say most were a total waste of time (hunger/energy/someone else’s money). Really lovely piece.
This is so interesting. I'm amazed you've been to so many different spas and clinics. The Welsh masseuse was hilarious. "It's a job."...
I've never, ever been to a spa. I'm worried I'd make some sort of terrible mistake. Wear the wrong robe or lose my slippers!
The headache from that fast sounds terrible. Had they banned caffeine as well? Caffeine withdrawal headaches are horrendous!
I know what you mean about the weird effect of fasting - I had to fast for a while before an operation and, by the end of it, I thought my stomach was radiating holy light! Absolutely bizarre!
This is where I chose the wrong job. As a librarian, I've been sent on a jolly to... erm... the British Library's document supply centre in Boston Spa! So it's sort of a spa but we looked at lots of shelves and no one had a facial.
So refreshing, so honest, so smart and so witty. Thanks for improving my morning no end.
Thank you - so good!

Love your 'swigging back the lady petrol', really made me chuckle
Hilarious - and my one experience of a health farm also on a newspaper dollar, was equally boring and unpleasant. As you say, better to be in nature
