Spa Vacations





FOCUS ON SPA VACATIONS  

   Pamperings in spa appeal to younger set
As if we need something else to remind us, America's youth are different from the rest of us who, um, are less youthful. Apparently the young ones dig pampering. Deep finger massage. Cucumbers on the eyelids. They want it. Feel they deserve it. And they have no sense of embarrassment.


SPA VACATION HEADLINES  

His-and-hers heaven
Signature golf courses for him, invigorating spa treatments for her -- or vice versa -- golf-spa combos offer couples a link to paradise
Standing on the tee at the sixth hole of PGA West's TPC Stadium Course, 187 yards from a pincushion green floating in a sea of lost golf balls, I'm feeling strangely exhilarated.

Fairways & spa days
Maybe I should have been standing on the first tee, preparing to hit a drive into the nearest sand trap. Instead, I was lying face down on a massage table -- and feeling pretty good about it.

Spa oasis
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - Inside a quiet, warm massage room in the spa at the elegant Phoenician resort, therapist Joan Mansky turns a heat lamp on my back, dims the lights just a bit and asks gently, "How are you feeling?" "Great!" I find myself answering, somewhat to my own surprise. "I feel just fine!"

Bill Ordine | Swanky casino spas soothe away stress
You're sitting under twinkling starlight, the scent of lavender in the air, while being drenched by a rain shower - and it's all happening indoors. Where are you? Let's see . . . paradox laced with incongruity . . . must be Las Vegas.

Tasty indulgences
WHEN WE'RE stressed out, there's nothing more comforting than food. The smell and taste of fresh-baked bread, dipping into a container of Haagen Dazs, the sweet-crunchy savor of an oatmeal cookie, the dark delights of chocolate truffles.
