I love spas! Going to the spa is one of my favorite activities, mostly because it’s takes no energy at all – in fact, spas are supposed to give you energy. I’ll try almost any spa treatment except leech therapy (though Demi Moore did it in Austria and apparently liked it). I’m a full believer in the old-fashioned spa cures of Central Europe, Germany and Italy and France and this is where my vacation dollars go. I’m also passionate about staying on top of spa trends, from the weird and immune boosting practice of cryotherapy (freezing in subzero temperatures) to the latest Swiss mesotherapy facial.
