Modern day stress spirals life into a different, and sometimes, not-so-healthy lifestyle. Stress leads individuals to fall into the trap of developing unhealthy diets, poor habits or illness.
If this sounds familiar, then it may be time to experience a mind-body detox to kick-start healthy living. Massage treatments, juice fasts and the once in a lifetime coffee colonic are just some of the exciting ways to detox the toxic body. Beyond the detox experience, these destinations feature stunning views and, of course, some much needed R&R.
