Why yes, this will cheer you right up

Ladies, has your man ever cheated on you? Did it knock your confidence for six? Make you feel unattractive? Turn you to drink? Should have gone to the Renaissance Chancery Court.

Yes, the prize for the most unappetizing launch of the week goes to the Get Your Groove Back package at the London hotel, which they’ve brought out in the wake of what seems like every other famous man in Britain cheating/sexting on their respective wives. The press release is exhorting scorned women everywhere to “follow in the footsteps of Cheryl [Cole] and Toni [Terry] by taking time out to escape the drama with a change of scenery.”

Dudes Can Stay Macho In a Spa Robe at the Chancery Court

Gents! Are you tired of feeling emasculated by the spa experience? Does the idea of fluffy robes and essential oils make you quiver (in a bad way?) If so, you might want to pop along to the Spa at Chancery Court in the the Renaissance Chancery Court in June for their Gin & Tonic treatment.

In keeping with the gin theme, they’ll scrub you down with juniper berries, salt and tonic water. Then they’ll throw in a full body massage with juniper berry oil which, apparently, isn’t just boozy — it’s warming and detoxing as well. Afterwards, if you can brave the girly relaxation room, you’ll be rewarded with a proper G&T. The experience is yours for £120 and takes 1 hour and 25 minutes.

So be brave, chaps; the hotel is in the middle of the City (so very macho), the spa’s downstairs (so there’s no risk of being seen and ridiculed by unreconstructed cavemen) and they make some pretty stonking cocktails in the bar upstairs, which should help quell those pre-spa nerves.

As for you ladies, you’re welcome to try the G&T treatment too, but if the juniper berries sound a bit rough for your fragile skin, they’re doing a “strawberries & cream” pedicure for the month of May as well.
