<i>Spa Style Asia </i> is the authoritative guide to Asia's healing traditions and the luxury spas that practice them. The book opens with Spa Therapies, a study of the major healing systems of Asia—Chinese, Indian, Indonesian, Japanese, and Thai. It offers an overview of the cultural and historical backgrounds of these healing traditions, details what you can expect from specific treatments and therapies, and provides recipes that can be recreated at home. Spa Cuisine surveys the major national cuisines of Asia and provides healthy recipes for complete meals comprising soup, appetizer, main course, dessert and drink, together with calorie, protein, carbohydrate and fat counts. While Asia is the primary focus of these first two sections, traditional Asian treatments and recipes that have been updated with a modern twist, and international therapies and cuisines are included in the New Asian and Cosmopolitan chapters respectively. Spa Digest is organized geographically, and serves as an illustrated directory to the region's extensive range of quality spa retreats. Insights into the essence of each property will help you decide on the spa that best suits your needs, personality and preference, while a fact-packed Spa Statistics panel summarizes the facilities, treatments and therapies, provisions for couples, availability of spa cuisine, services, recreation options and contact details.
