Item 1 ~ A Different Kind of Spa
Reflections Dental Spa. Sounds like an oxymoron to me yet that's the very name of a business near me. I don't possibly see how you can combine the words "dental" and "spa" unless maybe, just maybe, you were going for the cosmetic surgery angle. The only other thing I can think of is heavy use of nitrous oxide which gives one the la-la feeling while the drill is grinding away at one's tooth.
As for me, I'll take the traditional spa ~ facials, massages, soft music and maybe even a manicure and pedicure if I'm feeling girlie.
Item 2 ~A Need to Escape
Member's Only Exclusive Clubs in London. Some strictly male, some strictly female, others integrated. But this is not the kind of exclusivity that these clubs are about. Exclusivity includes no vulgarity, no cell phones, no photography, no laptops. These clubs are rapidly growing in popularity because members are looking for civility, manners, face-to-face interaction and peace. What a social commentary! In essence, they are seeking a haven from the crazy, in-your-face, impersonal world that is spinning all around them. They are looking to get off the treadmill, if only for a few blissful hours, to enjoy good company, a nice meal and conversation without technology. Sign me up!
