Smother yourself in chocolate!

Friday, 29 April 20053 min read

A Paris hotel is reportedly offering women who are seriously addicted to chocolate the ultimate beauty treatment – the chance to “dive into chocolate”.

According to the online news provider Ananova, the Four Seasons Hotel George V is offering treatments including a chocolate and cranberry body scrub, a toffee chocolate wrap and a deep chocolate massage.

Therapists at the hotel reportedly claim that cocoa has ageing properties and that the offering is aimed at being “anti-diet”.

Ananova quotes manager Isabelle Schlumberger as saying: “You know you are going to do yourself good and you won’t have any regrets afterwards. On the contrary, you feel good in every sense; all the senses have been satisfied. It’s such a rejection of the idea of dieting, to dive into chocolate.”

Should being smothered in chocolate not be enough of a hit, the website reports, the £200 Decadent Chocolate Package also includes a bowl of chocolates next to the massage table.

The report does not explain why the package is being aimed specifically at women – if the hotel needs a male “guinea-pig” to test out the treatment, you know where to find me!
