General recommendations
Before the treatment
Come early and take your time
Before starting a treatment, take plenty of time (20 – 30 minutes) to fully enjoy our relaxing Jacuzzi-type pool; this will relax your muscles, which will serve the integral therapeutic purpose of many treatments.
Take a quick shower
A quick shower directly before your massage or treatment has a relaxing effect and will remove any sand, salt, minerals, chemicals and/or other skin impurities that could clog pores by blending with oils and other treatment products.
Communicate with your therapist
Before your treatment you should tell your therapist which areas to focus on and which should be avoided.
Have a tea
Choose one of our relaxing teas and start to calm down. This will make your Spa experience even more effective.
Be honest about your health issues
Don’t race over the health information section of your Spa profile, instead using this as an opportunity to provide helpful information to your therapist. Allergies are obviously important and will matter in the selection of products to be used, but this information will also let your therapist know if you have some aches and pains or are under a lot of stress. A therapist takes all of this into consideration when designing your treatment options.
Treatment clothes policies
Unless otherwise specified in your treatment report, you should wear a bath robe and disposable Spa panty to your treatment. You will have a chance to undress and dress in privacy, (bath robes and disposable Spa panties will be at your disposal). During your treatment you will be wrapped in simple linen fabrics.
You should never be completely uncovered.
Relax
Close your eyes and let your thoughts flow free. Take a deep breath and let your tension dissolve with each breath.
Enjoy the moment, it belongs only to YOU.
General recommendations
During the treatment
Speak up
If you’re not comfortable with anything during your treatment, e.g. the pressure, the music, the temperature then it is important to ask the therapist to make an adjustment.
Don’t talk if you don’t feel like it
You can talk during the treatment or just stay quiet, it is your choice.
The therapist will follow your lead.
General recommendations
After the treatment
Get up slowly
If you feel dizzy or light headed after the massage, do not get off the table too fast.
Drink plenty of water
Make sure you drink plenty of water before and after services to enhance the benefits of your treatments.
Be careful
Avoid excessive sun exposure during the rest of the day.
Don’t rush off, take your time
After your last treatment, you will be led to the lockers room or relaxing area. You can shower, get dressed, put on your make-up, do your hair, have a cup of tea etc. before you leave.
There is no set time for you to leave.
