Sura Detox, Dolton
A Retreat Fasting Program might sound a little scary, but Sura, in peaceful Devon, offers a thoroughly adventurous approach to your digestive system. Expect a dietary regime of psyllium husks, digestive enzymes, bentonite clay and plenty of liver-flushing carrot juice (and optional colonics). Our spy lost an impressive seven pounds during the course of a six-day stay, and retains Bambi-like memories of baby deer frolicking just outside the window.
Perfect for: Losing weight the rigorous way.

Grayshott Spa, Surrey
The Latin inscription on the tower at Grayshott may give the slight air of a Victorian public school, but translates as 'Peace on arrival. Health on departure'. Which is what we're all about, right?
Kick-start your fitness routine in the gym or swimming-pool, and consider signing up for the Inch Loss Programme, a six-night stay that takes in exercise with a former Olympic athlete, dietary consultations with a naturopathic nutritionist, and mind-body exercises with a hypnotherapist to get you geared up for long-term weight management.
Perfect for: A systematic approach to weight loss.

The Luxuriant Plant Life Liana Contour Slimming and Refining Ritual is a sculpting massage to redefine your figure: think spicy red liana from Peru and Amazonian berries, then think of being enveloped in them…
Perfect for: Uncluttering the mind as well as the body.
