I love the people at Body Beauty. They are just so nice and friendly and they get your name right…read moreafter a few visits. The salon is a bit off the beaten track in Palmers Green, but it's worth it. They have a very wide range of services, but as I haven't tried all of them I can only say ... so far I haven't been disappointed. They offer a Mini Refreshing Facial which is absolutely adorable as it takes less time than a normal one, but still leaves your skin soft and glowing. I'm not ashamed to say that I also go a couple of friends hooked to this salon. So far no one has complained.

Body Beauty is the best place to send your girlfriend in London. Let me explain why…read more First and foremost, the staff are really top notch, but above that you have Soti, who is an absolute star. She'll make amazing recommendations for people who know incredibly little about beauty (i.e. men) so that when they feed back/tell their other half that they're going to a salon it actually sounds like you've thought things out properly. Beyond the jokiness, this is a really good salon. Very clean, slightly off the beaten path but consistently busy all the same - in times like now that is incredibly rare, especially in what isn't really an essential every day spend so more than hints at the quality of service. I've had a couple of massages here myself, and would like to think I'm a bit of an expert, but always leave well and truly relaxed. I've sent my partner and my mum (when she comes down from Manchester) here consistently every month or so, and whilst the list of treatments gets bigger and bigger, the cost doesn't significantly rise along with it, and ultimately, no matter that my partner lives in the West End and I live on the mean streets of Wapping, she still always makes the journey North because she absolutely loves going here (and Soti). Really great service, really, really reasonable prices and for those of us (men, basically) with a bit (extensive) of a knowledge gap when it comes to things beauty for women, a really informative - and not salesy - experience as well.

The Balance Clinic in Chelsea is tucked away in a little court yard towards the New King's Road end…read moreof the King's Road. When you enter the clinic, there's a pleasant light and airy feel, with much of the decor being in cream or marble green. Now to the treatment! Many Londoners are rushed off their feet and there tends to be a culture of eating on the run or at your desk, which isn't good for the digestive system. Colonic irrigation is used as a detox programme, which can reduce bloating and improve skin conditions. Too often we don't look at all the toxins in the processed food that we eat. The result being skin conditions such as eczema or psoriasis. A colonic irrigation is a good way to start to clear all this up. Combined with a change in eating and exercise habits, this would be a start to a new healthier, more energy filled lifestyle!
