Reinvigorating Spas
In
the hustle and bustle of everyday life it’s quite easy nowadays to let
yourself go to rack and ruin, or almost. In South Africa you can make
amends at a spa resort, pampering your senses and infusing new vitality
into body and soul
The spa
is the modern version of taking the waters, but gone are the white
glazed tiles, the bland food and that feeling of asceticism. Today’s
spa is tastefully and luxuriously furbished, its cuisine nutritious but
gastronomic, its invigorating treatments an exercise in pure pleasure.
The jacuzzi, steam bath and sauna are mandatory, and fitness and sports
facilities attract a younger and more active clientele. |

Staff
are highly trained and experienced therapists who for a short while can
transport you to nirvana, their balms and oils reviving tired limbs.
So, lie back and luxuriate to the strains of tranquil music and
trickling waterfalls.
Several options
South Africa boasts several spa hotels, while many others, large and
small, even safari lodges and camps, provide spa facilities. It stands
to reason therefore to combine a beach holiday, a trip to the
vineyards, a safari or golfing with a few days of decadent
self-indulgence. |
