A guide to spa treatments and massages, this book includes definitions
and descriptions of common massage and spa services as well as the more
unusual offerings of international spas in China, Morocco, Tuscany and
more. From advice on your first visit to a spa or masseur to "way out"
experiences for the more adventurous, this is the ultimate spa handbook.
If you've ever wondered what Reflexology is like in China, been tempted
by Gua Sha, tried to discover how an Ayurvedic Massage differs from the
rest, or even heard of Tkissila this is the guide for you. This guide is
based solely on personal experience, so, as well as explaining some of
the technical differences, the author also explains how each treatment
made her feel and her reactions to some of the more unusual massages.
The book also includes recommendations for spas where the author has
tried the treatment and information on further reading. A must for new
spa visitors, as well as spa fanatics and spa professionals.
