Arrival
Try to arrive at least 45 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment, so that you can enjoy the rejuvenating freshness of our water therapy and relaxation areas.
Pre-Spa Relaxation
You will be given a locker for your personal belongings and receive a spa dressing gown before being guided through to the water therapy area, where cleansing and restorative treatments such as sauna, steam room, plunge pool and Jacuzzi await you. Alternatively, you can just relax on a heated waterbed or a daybed as you sip water or lemongrass tea.
Heat
Contraction and expansion of the circulatory system helps to detoxify and relax the muscles. Guests should alternate between the dry heat of the infrared sauna to warm the muscles, the wet heat of the steam room to open up the respiratory system and finally, the plunge pool to lower the body temperature, to maximise any effects. Guests with blood pressure concerns should consult a Health and Wellness advisor prior to treatment.
Outdoor Massage
Three outdoor, but enclosed, treatment rooms provide Oil Massage and Thai Massage for those who prefer the natural warmth of the day.
