Book Description
From its early emphasis on healing waters, Europe's rich spa tradition has evolved to incorporate different healing practices and therapies—not just from Europe, but from around the world. Spa Style Europe is a comprehensive guide to the intricate tapestry of popular modern spa treatments in Europe and those quality spas where you can enjoy them. Spa Treatments presents the historical, social and cultural background of spas in Europe, and tells you what you can expect from present-day spa treatments and therapies. Also included in this section are tips on how to benefit most fully from your spa experience, and recipes for do-it-yourself treatments that you can easily try at home. The spa therapies are organized according to the key elements of Water, Fire, Earth, Air, and Harmony. Spa Cuisine brings some of the secrets of healthy eating into your home, with delicious, nutritious and innovative recipes provided by two French spas: La Cuisine Synergique®, a three-day programme from Royal Parc Evian; and Cuisine Minceur, a one-day programme from Les Prés d'Eugénie. You will discover how a synergy of ingredients and cooking methods can provide tasty and inventive meals that help to balance your body and optimize your energy levels. Spa Digest, arranged geographically, is an illustrated guide to 49 of Europe's quality spas. It provides insights into the character of each property and highlights their key treatments to help you plan your next spa visit. A fact-packed Spa Statistics column helps you establish at a glance the spa type, spa size, facilities, treatments and therapies, provisions for couples, availability of spa cuisine, services, recreation options, and contact details of each spa.
