Spa

How many of us dream of a spa visit as our ideal pampering break? Although spas are becoming more accessible and affordable, few people are able to visit regularly. That's where this book comes in. Not only is it a comprehensive guide to the spa experience around the world, it's also a practical take-home treat.

Karena Callen has gathered recipes, exercise routines, facials, and body treatments from the best spas across the globe so that you can enjoy the spa experience in your own home. From a Santa Fe-style spritzer to a papaya body mask from The Oriental Spa in Bangkok, she shows how you can enjoy many of the benefits of a spa visit without getting on a plane. Spa is inspirational but completely accessible, an insider's guide that is designed to be useful as well as beautiful. Whether you're in need of a spring clean or a winter warmer, a quick fix or a long-term solution, Spa shows you how to pamper body and soul.

Karena Callen has worked as a health and beauty journalist for over fifteen years for magazines such as Elle, Red, and Cosmopolitan. She is the author of several books, including Elle Vitality: A Guide to Health and Beauty.
