Tatler Spa Guide 2009
Now, more than ever, we need free time to count. We rush from work to parties, from meetings to dinner, eating too fast, drinking too much and staying up way too late. Then we look at ourselves in the mirror and wonder why people twice our age look half as young. So how do we feel better amidst the hullabaloo? We force healthiness upon ourselves. We extract ourselves from our evil lives – just for a weekend, maybe a week (maybe three) – so we can feel and look as good as we know we should. In Tatler’s guide to the best spas, clinics, retreats and bootcamps in the world, we sift through the guff to concentrate on the places that get results. Sponsored by the fabulous Cleveland Collection – the first major tour operator to offer a spa-only brochure – the guide focuses on magical massages and past-life regressions, beetroot juice and colonics. It’s a guide that’s about cocooning if you need it, decadent deprivation if you don’t; it zones in on safe havens and taskmasters, all of them the best in the business. So don’t be afraid – get out there and get stuck in.
