Ask Susie: Rehab & Recovery

Question:

My husband wants to take our daughter, who is in recovery for bulimia, alcoholism, and drug abuse, and me to a luxury spa in a warm place, with no bar, for a week.  Any ideas?

C.A.

Answer:

Dear C.A.,

While spas are typically not places to go for rehabilitation from bulimia, alcoholism, or drug abuse, they can be a great reward for having finished such a program!  And you are smart to select a spa that doesn’t serve alcohol.

Based on your desire to be in a warm climate at a luxury spa, my first choice for you would be Cal-a-Vi; it is in southern California and is definitely luxurious.

Do take a look at the rest of the following list – there are some great spas listed that might work even if they are slightly less luxurious or in a cooler climate.

And, selecting a spa without alcohol may be a good idea for a lot of folks even if they don’t have addiction issues.  It’s a nice temptation to avoid for a few days or, in your case, a week.
