      AUTHOR'S NOTE: Researching this book was the best job I have ever had. Months of fabulous treatments left me feeling fantastic and I apparently looked pretty radiant too. I am now completely hooked on the pure pleasure, both physical and mental, that regular spa visits bestow-not to mention the amazing health benefits. My deepest thanks to everyone who helped make this book a reality!
