Ok, a little late but a couple of days and I've become totally Californian BUT only in as much that I have spent the last 2 days in spa treatments........it wqasn't by design but it was a really fab way to come towards the end of the 30 day detox.

Calistoga is famous for hot springs and mud (and wine, but I'm deliberately ignoring that one)

So, I have laid in mud, had mud shovelled (I do mean shovelled) over me and then scooped off me, then we were put in huge baths that were over flowing with really hot thermal waters - think flake ad but not in a field, in a really lovely colonial white flatboard cabin - then taken to a little booth that was immaculately painted and kept and wrapped in white soft cotton sheets and had 2 pieces if cucumber placed on my eyey and a cool flannel over the top. Left to 'rest' for 15 minutes and then taken out to The Buddah Pool area to 'recover'. Apart from being tempted to eat the cucumber it was THE BEST way to cleanse and purge.

I've been detoxing annually for approx 17 years and I have to say this one was one to remember. SO! take some time to book in for something that is a total reward for making the 30 day mark - even if it's a haircut or manicure - because you're worth it!
