Harrogate Spa…. yum!!!!
I have had an utterly fabulous day. I went to Harrogate, indulged in a little shopping and a spot of lunch and then went to Harrogate Spa. On this occasion I didn’t actually go into the spa bit but went and had three treatments.
I started off with a body scrub and then I was wrapped up in what felt like a bit of plastic sheeting and covered with a few towels. It was the most peculiar feeling. Half way through I wondered if this was what being in a body bag would feel like! It wasn’t entirely unpleasant though, despite the plastic making me sweat and it feeling a bit itchy. However, once I had been in the shower and washed everything off my skin felt fantastic! After that I had a marvellous back, neck and shoulder massage followed by a Vitamin C facial. This last treatment was amazing, although the sensations of different textures on my face such as cold, smooth cleansers, rough flannels, a stick face mask and soft oils was strange, especially when you can’t see what is coming next!
I think I must have had 3 or 4 naps throughout the treatments and it was just lovely to be pampered for a change. I am going back to the Turkish Spa bit in a couple of weeks with Anne and Chloe for a mini hen-do. So will report back on what that was like then!
