If life’s travails are getting
you down – or even if you’re
the type who walks with a
permanent spring in your step –
a visit to Bannatyne Spa Bristol
is time well spent. This haven
of tranquility is the perfect pit-
stop on your journey towards
total wellbeing. Operating in
partnership with acclaimed
skincare brand Elemis, the
facility offers a broad range
of pampering treatments and
spa rituals. Opt for a custom
manicure, a chillaxing Swedish
back, neck and shoulder
massage or an energising
facial. Why not try a 30-minute
full-body chocolate massage,
for instance, or an Elemis body
polish? The bamboo massages
are also popular, a treatment
that has become quite trendy
in recent years. The patient
lies face down while the
therapist kneads their muscles
with a hollow bamboo cane;
the cane is either warmed or
kept at room temperature, and
its usage results in a deep,
firm massage. Bannatyne
spa guests are also granted
full access to the health club
facilities, including a gym
packed with plenty of cardio
equipment. After breaking a
sweat, make use of the heated
pool, jacuzzi or sauna.
