Vacation yourself thin. and We Care Juice Fasting and Retreat

Advocate, The,  Nov 6, 2007  by Adam H. Graham

Soukya Ayurvedic Holistic Health Center

Bangalore, India

This residential holistic health center sprawls over a leafy 32-acre organic fruit and vegetable farm, which supplies the kitchens that produce low-fat vegetarian cuisine ideal for slimmer-body-seeking gays. The clinic features 16 red-tile-roofed units (four suites and 12 deluxe rooms) and a holistic health center that offers a combination of homoeopathy, Ayurvedic, Siddha, and Unani therapies.

Though it prominently features weight management, it also includes cardiac hypertension, stress management, and asthma control. You can opt for various other programs like meditation, mud therapy, nutrition, smoking cessation, and yoga therapy. And if the clinic is good enough for the likes of Sarah Ferguson, Tina Turner, and Bollywood and Hollywood jet-setters, it's good enough for the gays.

We Care Juice Fasting and Retreat

Desert Springs, Calif. Located on the outskirts of uber-gay Palm Springs, We Care offers programs designed to encourage weight loss and combat toxic absorption through juice-fasting.

The spa's mission is to cleanse the body of toxins that have accumulated (for some of us, over many years' worth of gay go-go bar crawls!). Guests are invited to stay anywhere from three days to four weeks in the quiet desert ranch house setting (complete with sauna, swimming pool, Jacuzzi, and free passes to the local natural hot springs) and sample treatments such as lymphatic massage, reflexology, acupressure, digestive release, stone massage, and raindrop therapy, all of which are administered to help reduce excess body weight.

Eight-day packages include six colonics, two digestive release massages, meditation, healthy cooking classes, and more for $2,739; WeCareSpa.com
