In the intimate atmosphere of a Haussmann apartment with lovely moulded ceilings, basking in soft candlelight and the warmth of wood, this new well-being address proposes a wealth of made-to-measure treatments to soothe both body and soul. Encounters with a sophrologist and naturopath, sessions of yoga, Pilates, well-targetted massages, lithotherapy, a healthy lunch : for a day or a full month’s cure, this aptly-named centre for urban detox repairs gently while restoring positive energy. L’essentiel, 116 rue La Boétie, Paris 8 (01 42 08 16 01).
