Can anyone recommend a really good massage therapist/body work sort of person in Merida? Or anywhere along the VDLP north of Zafra for that matter. Thanks in advance for taking the time to reply.

Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

No I can't recommend anyone although there must be professionals around.
I can only advice you that you find a certificated one and with good references.
As far as I know massage therapist is not an official degree in Spain but physiotherapist and chiropractor are.

Ps here is a link.

There is a Roman Spa, just 17kms on the Camino in Aljucen, where you can bathe your pains away before having a massage, they also give a pilgrim discount, Google their website aqualibera if you are interested.... Who said the Vdlp was hard, pah!

Hi Helen and Scott, this place looks unique indeed!
 
Thanks, Sabine - how convenient that I have a reservation at Hostal Aquaforum.
 
Altus Poncho (ATMOSPHERIC H30)
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

€60,-
Baños de Montemayor is another spot where you can get a pilgrim deal on a massage at the termas.
 
Thanks for the suggestion. I struck out on appointment availability in Merida. When I arrived in Aljucen I found a note on the door of the termas saying closed for the day for personal relaxation. Maybe BdM will work out.

Bummer, must be a tough gig running a spa.
