One of the problems with the 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.

We must be blogging in parallel universes... I actually enjoy going to the spa, but I wouldn't call it a medical benefit. Check out my last conversation with my masseuse:

I loved my first massage, a shiatsu on the West Coast. But the novelty wore off and my last massage was painful. It tooks months for the stiffness and spasm to wear off.
But what bothered me, was like in your post, he was trying to seel me some potions. But he was so busy doing that to realize that he was causing pain.
Your post was very funny though.
