Miruji Health Spa Limited in Shrewsbury, which offered alternative therapies that it claimed could cure anxiety and depression and aid weight loss, went in to liquidation on January 9.

Liquidators Griffin & King are now organising meetings with shareholders and creditors in order for the company to be formally be placed into liquidation.

According to a note pinned to the door of the spa in Roushill in the town centre, the closure has been caused by a severe downturn in trade.

Anyone who is owed money should contact their bank or credit card holder for reimbursement. But those who paid by cash should contact the receivers who will issue forms which should be completed and returned.

Mark Shaw, senior corporate manager for proposed liquidator and licensed insolvency practitioner Timothy Corfield, said: "Based on the little information we have so far it is unlikely that sufficient monies will be recovered.

"The appointed liquidator has to undertake enquiries in relation to the failure of the company and report his finding to the Department for Business Innovation and Skills (formerly the DTI). They will then consider that report and may take action against the director if they feel that his conduct warrants such action."

Anyone wanting further information should contact Griffin & King on 01743 491239.
