Cryotherapy
It may sound like something from a sci-fi movie, but Cryotherapy is an effective treatment designed to provide relief from pain, promote healing and boost energy levels.
Popular with celebs and sporting professionals, this futuristic cold-therapy treatment briefly subjects your body to extreme cold (around -110 to -195°C) in a controlled cryo-chamber, releasing an intense endorphin rush and supercharging energy levels. Cryotherapy helps to relieve any inflammation and swelling and boosts healing and mental well-being. Cryotherapy may also improve the appearance of ageing and improve skin tone.
Cryotherapy sessions last for around 2-3 minutes. Most people are suitable for this treatment, but it’s worth consulting a medical professional before booking. Full-body cryo can be a little uncomfortable after the initial wave of cold air, but it’s not painful.
Green Tea Detox Therapy
Full body massages are one of the most relaxing spa treatments, with the feel-good aftereffects lasting for days. Lymph drainage massage is designed to gently encourage the drainage of lymph nodes and promote the movement of lymph fluid around the body.
The benefits of lymph drainage massage are numerous and include reducing stress and fatigue, improving digestion, reducing water retention, speeding up healing and reducing the appearance of stretch marks and cellulite.
In this treatment, detoxifying Green Tea jelly is used to help eliminate toxins and stress from the body while moisturising the skin. This treatment is particularly beneficial for anyone who struggles with sleep, headaches or skin concerns, but it’s also ideal for those seeking a relaxing, calming experience.
Deep Hydration Baobab Ritual
For the ultimate stress-relieving and pampering experience, this African-inspired ritual is the perfect tonic for summer. Suitable for everyone, including women past the first trimester of pregnancy, expect buttery smooth skin, reduced fatigue and an enhanced feeling of well-being.
The prehistoric baobab tree is an icon of Africa, and its coconut-like fruit is known for its nutritious qualities. The baobab is said to boost immunity, relieve stress, enhance wellbeing and improve the appearance of skin, thanks to its natural collagen content.
This spa treatment includes full-body exfoliation and massage with a blissful scalp massage using the finest, ethically sourced baobab seed oil, guaranteed to leave you completely relaxed.
Skin Scanning Facial Analysis
Reveal the hidden secrets beneath your skin this summer with an insightful skin-scanning session. Utilising the latest technology, Analysis Scan can accurately measure up to 2mm below the skin’s surface, highlighting fine lines and wrinkles, areas of pigmentation and sun damage, before they become visible.
Skin scanning produces high-resolution images of the skin, enabling a skin specialist to examine, diagnose and suggest treatments to target specific areas. This safe, pain-free procedure is suitable for everyone.
Spa Manicure with Gel Finish
Get set for summer and spoil yourself after one of our spa treatments with a fresh set of nails. Our Bio Sculpture Spa Manicure includes a vegan, toxin-free gel that strengthens and conditions the nails, ensuring optimum nail health beneath the gel finish. Choose from a rainbow of gel colours, including candy brights, summer pastels and sophisticated metallics for the perfect finishing touch.
Gel nails offer a range of benefits; they can help to strengthen and protect natural nails, the polish lasts for weeks, and it's a subtle way to enhance your hands at an affordable price.
