Health and Spas
Posted Aug 26 2008 4:08pm

WHO definition of health
is that it is so broad that it can be interpreted as "feeling good."
It is so profound as to be meaningless
.
So why not cover spas (which, if I am not mistaken is a partially- covered benefit of some European health plans)?
Here is a
well-known writer describing the limits of self-improvement while exploring a spa
. At least it's not a Medicaid benefit.
