Overweight Teen? Make the most of summer vacation with Spa Programs and Retreats for Teenagers

With just 4 ingredients, we'll show you how to make a an exfoliating Blueberry Oatmeal Facial Mask

What better way to combine two relaxing and rejuvenating expenditures of time -- the care of one's self with slow, quiet, and careful spa treatments, and, the sipping of tea in a thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented tea service? 

Brewed tea is relished by some as a healing Elixer, and by others as a ceremonial tool. It's been described as both invigorating (thanks to the caffeine in some varieties) and relaxing (certain varies of tea contain theophylline, a muscle relaxant).

Whether you enjoy its uplifting elements or calming properties, tea can become part of a liquid spa treatment when presented in the right environment.

These facilities offer both tea service on the grounds or in the Inn, and a spa facility, for the perfect day of quiet and lovely rituals.
