When choice gives you a headache, head to Natéclo. This discreet beauty haven is neither a get-lost-before-you’ve-arrived spa or a heaving salon. It’s just one simple room, in which some of the most relaxing facials and body massages are performed by its one calm and instinctive owner, Kristy Nguyen.

The room’s chic, dark, Oriental-style interior is condusive to proper peace and tranquility, if not a full hour’s kip. Nguyen performs most treatments herself and really knows what she’s doing. Her facials combine steam, extraction, soothing organic oils and a unique (and seriously cosy) warm wax mask, whilst her massage is both deep and calming.

Just book in, turn up and you’ll leave a calmer being.

It’s as simple as that.
