DIY health spa

We’ve all dreamt of giving ourselves the ultimate present of a health retreat. The chance to disappear for a while, eat lots of healthy plant-based food, do some yoga and have a massage day in and day out sounds both blissful and beneficial

Yet it can also be expensive. With prices for health retreats ranging around in the thousands – per day, in some cases – it can be a treat we must retreat from to protect our bank balance. Which is why Thrive has put some thought into doing things differently. Instead of suffering an attack of FOMO (fear of missing out) as you read about one of our journalists enjoying a freebie at that health retreat you can’t afford, we’ve decided to give you a handy guide on how to create your own health retreat on a budget.
