Spa Lifestyle

February 17, 2007

Life is hectic; you deserve a breather and Fine Living can help you find the perfect spa destination and treatment.

Whether you are looking for a quaint cottage spa tucked away or a spa experience close enough to the beach to get a hint of ocean breeze, the spa blog is a place to seek retreat. There are many blissful treatments to choose from on a spa menu. If you have questions about any treatment or if you wonder what treatment would be best for your skin type, skin concern or what type of massage would be ideal for you - just send a comment to the blog or email me!

Spa health is not only about pampering and relaxation, but also nutrition and exercise. You can get a facial every week, but if you are not taking care of your body by eating the right foods, it will show in your skin and affect your energy.

The Fine Living spa blog allows readers to share tips on spa cuisine and healthful eating.

Remember to create your own mini refreshers when you can't escape to a spa. Perhaps sitting in your favorite nook with a cup of green tea, watching a sunset, walking through a lavender field or simply swaying in a porch swing would give you a chance to relax your mind and body.

I hope you enjoy the art of relaxation and rejuvenation. I look forward to sharing my spa adventures with you as I travel to find the ultimate spa getaways and best-kept secrets!

Indulging in health,

When the going gets tough, the tough go to the spa where we can relax and clear our minds. After a truly good massage, the answers to our toughest questions flow forth ever so easily. But what do you do when you understand the difference between deep tissue and Swedish massage, and you’re ready to venture forth into new territory?

A look at a spa massage menu can be just as daunting as trying to choose an entrée from a hand written menu in Turkey and hoping you don’t select anything made of brains or eyeballs.

So for those of you who have gone ahead, please let the rest of us know what to try for our next Spa adventure. We could be missing out on something really great because cranio sacral sounds like it could cause brain damage and lymphatic drainage sounds like it would be better suited for the pipes in the house than a living, breathing body.
