See, its the thing, when you don't expect it and that is surprisingly beautiful- it was the same case with Neal's Yard. and not everyone will say that - 'hey going to London, do visit this small courtyard' . Nope, it was all part of my research... , It's only about 5 minutes from Covent Garden market, and there are two alleyways that lead to it, but they're not particularly easy to spot: one is via Monmouth Street and the other is via Short's Gardens, which is just off Neal Street.

Instagram has a tricky way of turning nothing into something. While I would not describe Neal's…read moreYard as nothing, I would like to help manage expectations. Neal's Yard is a tiny area. With buildings creating a triangular courtyard, it's a small location for a few restaurants and shops. There are some great spots to try here particularly if you're in the mood for breakfast, a tasty donut or pizza, but this isn't necessarily a destination in and of itself. The buildings are beautiful and colorful, but I would not make this a destination to visit. Rather, if you find yourself in the area, you can take a few minutes to walk through!

It's very convenient to have all these complementary therapies (massage, acupuncture, nutrition, chiropractic and more) options under the same roof.

Staying in London for a week and needed a pampering. Lucked out with finding Anya Spa!…read more Amy did a great job of my Shellac manicure (£25). Could have used a little bit more cuticle work but overall, she was a skilled manicurist and speedy without compromising the job. I loved that I didn't have to share the polish color wheels with other tables, which meant I could hum and haw over my color choices while she started working. That made the choice so much less stressful and for once, I didn't walk out of a manicure regretting my color choice! After watching Munni thread multiple women's brows, I had her thread and dye mine (£5+7). It was the first time for me so I can't give a comparison review but I can say that it was fast and relatively painless. She was friendly and informative -- I felt like my brows were in safe hands! I am seriously excited about not having to fill in my brows for the next week! Plus, no awful breakouts like when I get them waxed. The only issue I had was that the two nail techs kept sharing the cuticle tools. Maybe it's not regulated in England but in the US, nail salons have to sanitize all tools for every client.

The Thai massage is insane! The therapist really get rid of the knots and if you're suffering with back pain, it's a must! The Chinese massage is pretty good and I recently got cupping at the same time, which really helped with the pain in my neck and pain. If you're nearby, call in and see for yourself!

Five clear, shiny, bright stars for Elizabeth!…read more A real conversation that happened to me after seeing Elizabeth a few times... Man at breakfast table next to me: :::strikes up conversation::: Oh so what do you do? Me: Oh, I do this and that and this and that, etc etc. Man: Wow, that's a big job for someone who's what... 26? Me: It's actually my 33rd birthday today, but even if you are just being polite I will absolutely take it as a birthday gift. Man: No really, I might be getting old (he wasn't that old) but you look really young. Me: :::::THANK YOU ELIZABETH at LPA!::::::: *he was not creepy either, and was not hitting on me. Even better! I came to Elizabeth over the summer totally frustrated with the state of my face. I had basically in the midst of a breakout for what felt like a YEAR. A year. I was at my wits end. I had been to another clinic and felt like I got swindled. I was caking gross makeup on every day and I hated looking in the mirror. I needed someone to just get down to business. And Elizabeth did just that. The consummate professional she assessed the problem, didn't promise a miracle, got me on some ph-focused skin products, mineral makeup only (sold at the clinic!) and set me up with a package of chemical peels. (3 of them). I was a bit wary as I'd never had a peel but always being game for a beauty treatment and wanting desperately to fix this near constant state of flare on my face, I agreed and paid up. (Its not cheap but it's your face - invest). I finished my round of peels in late October and I can safely (fingers crossed) say that my skin has been almost 100 percent clear since then. It did take a few months for the products and peels to work their magic, but they DID. Coupled with some changes in diet, etc -- so far, SOLVED. Thank the Lord! Some pro-tips for peels -- does what it says on the tin, your whole face peels off basically. If you can plan it so you don't need to be anywhere super special for 5-10 days after, that would be wise. There is about a 2 day period where its very noticeable and you won't want to be walking the catwalk or anything. Other than that its able to be managed and once it's all peeled off you'll feel about 10 years younger with that fresh asf face of yours. Thank you dear Elizabeth. If you are looking for someone to treat your face like a canvas, Elizabeth is your woman. The clinic is great too -- I've also been in for acupuncture and some alternative therapies. Never disappointed and super convenient location between Old Street and Barbican on Whitecross Street.
