FLEX YOUR FOOT

Fans of foot reflexology swear that its the cat’s whiskers in getting rid of the body’s toxins and various ills, however painful it is. Manori Spa Bali in Seminyak brings various massages and treatments right to your villa, allowing you to have privacy while undergoing spa therapy. The 90-minute foot reflexology session is the most intense that they offer. It also includes a simultaneous neck and shoulder massage, all for just US$25.50 (AU$32.72).

GOING PEAR SHAPED

March is Australia’s pear season, when many varieties such as Buerre Bosc, Winter Nelis, Lemon Bergamot and Packham’s Triumph hit stores. This seasonal fruit is non-allergenic, high in fibre (as much as 4g per fruit) and has no cholesterol or fat. It’s particularly beneficial for those with Type One Diabetes as pears improve metabolic control. Have them on their own, in a salad with chicken, or serve them Thai-style with chopped mint and coriander, honey, fish sauce and garlic.

STEAMY DAYS

Seven dry herbs are placed in the steam pot – turmeric, bergamot leaf, tamarind leaf, camphor, prai, prakumdeekuay and camphor leaf – which will take away soreness and tiredness, clear minor infections, and hydrate and rejuvenate skin cells. The rate is 950 baht (AU$33.91). Call +66 (76) 338 000 to book your treatments.
