Help I've never been to a Spa!

My friend got given a voucher for a Spa day for two at Clarice House in Bury St Edmunds, and we're going next Thursday. It includes a facial and a manicure/pedicure, but we'll be there all day long.

I'd like to treat her to something nice, basically I'm getting the day for free so I'd like to buy her a treatment or something.

But I have never been to a spa! I don't even know what half of the things they 'offer' ARE!

Any advice? Also, what is a Spa like? They lend you a robe but what goes under it? Your undies? There is a pool but I don't fancy sitting around all day in my swimsuit.

...oh God my swimsuit is knackered, just remembered it was all fuzzy round the bum last year! I have to go and buy a new one.

Why don't you buy her the pedicure if she is having the manicure option, or vice versa?

Duh! that is so obvious.

I was sitting here looking at all the massage and ayruveda things and panicking!

Thanks.

Enjoy yourself and make sure you buy a lovely swimsuit first!

Yes, take a swimming costume - good excuse to buy a new one

You are reminding me that the hotel we are staying in when going ski-ing next week has a spa... I must wax!

You could buy some of the products that they use in her facial or if you get her the pedicure you could also buy the nail polish that she chose

Have fun!

Oh thats a nice idea Pinky, I can buy myself some at the same time, any excuse!
