Umm I always prefer my coffee white one sugar! But this new treatment looks like an interesting alternative.
Themae Bath Spa offer the innovative treatment and say:
“Green Coffee Wrap - this cutting edge treatment comprising 100% pure micronised Green Coffee, is designed to slim and tone your body. This wrap stimulates your body’s ability to break down fat and transform it into energy, increase metabolism and eliminate water retention.”
Sounds like a great way to recharge the batteries and perk yourself up!
The treatment takes 50 minutes and costs around £55 ($100).
This treatment sounds perfect for a group gift. Say you have some hard working secretaries at work and you want to treat them to a bit of R & R - why not send them off for an Alpine Hay Chamber spa treatment? They’ll come back refreshed and smelling kinda herbie!
But what is it? Thermae Bath Spa say:
“Up to 4 people can enjoy the social and soothing aspects of the Kraxen Stove - a time-honoured tradition from the Alpine area. The specially imported hay is held in a back grate and gently radiates heat to the back and shoulders. Perfect before a body treatment.”
Sounds great and only costs around £38 ($70) for 30 minutes.
What on earth is Watsu I hear you say?
It is often described as “an idyllic underwater massage and manipulation with a sensation of womb regression”. The Watsu web site says:
“Watsu is a gentle form of body therapy performed in warm water, (around 35oC.) It combines elements of massage, joint mobilisation, shiatsu, muscle stretching and dance. The receiver is continuously supported while being floated, cradled, rocked and stretched. The deeply relaxing effects of warm water and nurturing support, combine with Watsu’s movements, stretches, massage and point work, to create a bodywork with a range of therapeutic benefits and potential healing on many levels.
Moments of stillness alternate with rhythmical flowing movements, which free the body in ways impossible on land. The warm water relaxes the muscles and supports the spine. With this support and without the weight of the body, the spine, joints and muscles can be manipulated and freed in a way unique to water work. The effects include a very gentle, yet deep stretching and a release of muscular and joint restrictions, along with a state of deep relaxation, which encourages the release of stress and tensions.”
Watsu is widely offered for around $100 (£55) and might be a great gift for any friend or family with persistent aches and pains.
If your interested in a sybaritic hot oil massage then the Pantai Luar treatment is right up your street!
Described as:
“Two treatments combined. Radiant skin is revealed through the ritual of anointing the body with warm exotic oils while you relax on a heated surface. The Pantai Luar special massage is done with two heated dumplings made up of the world’s highest quality oils, fresh herbs, coconut and lime providing a warm and exotic fragrance during the massage. First the heated dumpling is passed over the body quickly, then slower rolling movements trace the body several times as the dumpling cools. Gentle pressure massage begins as fine essential oils penetrate the skin. The beneficial effects include the deletion of defective cells at an almost inconceivable rate. The existing cells become activated and the production of new cells begins. This system is initiated by the Pantai Luar process. A spectacular alternative to traditional massage.”
The treatment takes up to 50 minutes and is usually offered for around £55 ($100).
Fancy flying at the speed of sound in a fighter aircraft?
Well, the good news is that you can do it, but it’s not cheap with prices starting from $2,650 (£1,400) up to $19,500 (£10,540). However, for that you get an opportunity of a lifetime to fly at a breathtaking 80,000 feet altitude in a MiG-25 at over Mach-2.4 or alternatively fly the most manoeuvrable fighter Jets in the entire World - L39, Mig-29 and Su-27/Su-30 to your own limits.
According to FlyMig.com this experience “Guarantees the best thrills in the skies of Moscow!”
Wow, what an iconic gift this is gonna make for someone.
