Health and Beauty Spas Around the World

I have never been to a Health and Beauty Spa.  Yet.  Sure, I've had more massage than any other person on earth and I have a facial at Astro Soul Beauty whenever the mood strikes me, but I've never just dropped everything for a week and given myself over to serious, multi-day pleasure and pampering.  Furthermore, I have found it more difficult than I had imagined to find 'Spas' that catch my fancy.  So why have I included this page?  Because I feel it ties into my long-term life purpose - my dream. 

First, I intend to travel the world staying for three days at each and every health and beauty spa that meets criteria that I am currently devising.  As I mentioned above, my preliminary research on Spas indicates that the establishment that I had imagined is harder to find than I might have thought.  Sometimes a hotel with a swimming pool and a sauna calls itself a health spa.  Research difficulties aside, given that I do find some candidates, I will publish a review of each one of them right here on this page.  What a dream research project!  Even Fred Gratzon would be proud.  And then one day, I might even start my own 'Spa'.  I want to materialize this web site, which now lives only in cyberspace, into a real physical environment.  Maybe slowly, maybe quickly. 

And moreover, I want that materialization to have something for everyone - not just the idle rich.  I want a poor child in the ghetto to be able to spend some time being pampered and learning to become ever more beautiful, inside and out.  I want an old man, living alone in poverty, to have an occasional moment of pleasure and to recapture his feeling of beauty.  I want a busy executive to somehow be able to make time to relax and remember the beautiful, playful child within her.  I want a young mother, stuggling with her new role and her lost maidenhood, to remember and recapture for a moment the glory of her beauty.  Perhaps it sounds impractical but I feel a vision slowly emerging of how to accomplish that.  What do you think?  Crazy?  Misguided?  Yes, please?

I would love to hear about any health and beauty spas that the readers of this page have visited.
