Fax machines, iMacs and sleek silver chairs exemplify the center’s melding of science, design and overworked grad students. Though the lounge may be dead on weekday afternoons, the place becomes popular around 5 or 6 p.m., reports first-year graduate student Michael Fuerstman, who is studying physical chemistry.

A wide range of hotels at most major beach resorts and in the cool hills of Kandy also feature treatment centers?but it's wise to do your research. I chose a combined resort and got a tranquil wooden treatment center with natural rock fountains; but the attached hotel was a glitzy package-tour palace that jarred my newfound bliss...
