9 types of spa treatments to rejuvenate your mind, body and spirit
A visit to the spa is a chance to escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It’s a place where you can pamper yourself, relax, and rejuvenate your mind, body and spirit.
Our team members have carefully selected nine of their favourite spa treatments at Elysia to help you achieve a state of ultimate relaxation and rejuvenation. Whether you’re looking to try something new or to find comfort in the familiar, our goal is to create an experience that leaves you feeling refreshed and renewed well after you’ve left the seclusion of the spa.
Elysia Bespoke Facial
It’s time to reflect on your fitness journey. Have you encountered hurdles or plateaus? Where might a little extra guidance help? It’s in this moment of introspection that you can design fresh, attainable goals for the incoming season.
Our Elysia Bespoke Facial is a customised journey, utilising a fusion of our most powerful products to deliver the right outcome for you. Your experienced therapist will tailor the right combination of products to target your individual skin needs and concerns.
From treating fine lines, blemishes and dull skin to open pores, pigmentation and deep hydration (or all the above), this made-to-measure experience will give your skin what it needs to look radiant and feel revitalised.
Gua Sha Face & Head Massage
Feeling stressed lately? This deep relaxation treatment will target key pressure points, reducing the tension that may be showing on your face.
The Gua Sha Face & Head Massage is one of the most highly sought-after treatments at Elysia. Gua Sha is a traditional Chinese practice intended to stimulate blood flow and improve circulation, while aiding the relaxation of the facial muscles, reducing redness, and supporting the skin to appear bright and lifted.
You’ll experience a deep sense of relaxation while your therapist hits all the right notes with this beautiful, calming and blissful treatment
Note: This massage is not suitable for current acne outbreaks, rash, or sunburn.
Aromatic Massage
Looking for a calming and relaxing treatment that’ll leave you feeling revitalised and ready to take on the week with a refreshed mind and body? Then an aromatic massage is for you.
It’s a treatment that incorporates scented essential oils, stimulating your sense of smell to enhance your sense of relaxation and increase your wellbeing.
At Elysia, our Aromatic Massage is a soft and flowing treatment, with long, rhythmical movements over the body and pre-blended aromatic oils to balance your mind, body, and spirit.
This light-to-medium-pressure massage is ideal for relaxation, stress release and improved circulation.
In the Pouch
If you’re expecting a baby, then you’ve probably noticed some changes to your body – and your mindset – lately.
You deserve to pamper yourself, now more than ever, which is why this pregnancy-specific treatment has been designed with expecting mums in mind.
Your journey begins with a soothing aromatic foot soak and exfoliation, followed by a nurturing pregnancy massage.
Finally, a safe and nourishing facial will target changes to the skin that commonly occur during pregnancy, and leave you with an unmistakable glow.
Note: This treatment is suitable for women in their second and third trimester.
Crystal Chakra Balance
Feeling a little drained, like you’re cut off from your usual energy? Want to snap out of a funk and realign your body, mind and spirit? There’s a treatment for that.
A focal point of a variety of ancient meditation practices and traditions, your chakras are thought to be the main energy points in your body, running down your spine and corresponding to major organs and bundles of nerves.
Our Crystal Chakra Balance treatment is a deeply meditative experience, bringing the body’s seven main chakras into alignment through a fluid combination of massage, specific essential oil blends and healing crystals.
Working subtly on the energy centres in your body with profound effects, this truly unique experience clears tension and stagnant energy, leaving you feeling calm and in a state of harmony.
Hawaiian Kahuna Massage
If you’ve been dealing with stress-related aches and upper body tension, you’re likely overdue for a relaxing and rejuvenating experience. That’s exactly what you’ll get with this little taste of Hawaiian life.
A full mind and body experience, our Hawaiian Kahuna Massage utilises ancient Hawaiian massage techniques and energy work to take you on a journey of healing.
Kahuna therapists work to restore your body’s natural energy flow, whilst applying both a soft and deep tissue massage. Your therapist will attune the massage with specifically designed music to harmonise the rhythms within your body, mind and soul.
Finishing off with an energy rebalance and sound healing (the practice of using particular frequencies and harmonic overtones to encourage relaxation), this treatment will leave you feeling completely refreshed and ready to take on the world.
Note: An 80-minute session is recommended for the full experience.
Zen Thai Shiatsu Massage
If you’re craving a sense of balance in your life, and you’ve been experiencing physical discomfort and tension recently, then it might be time for you to make sure your body’s energy flow is in order.
Zen Thai Shiatsu is a comprehensive and immersive bodywork practice that merges the essences of Thai massage, osteopathy, and zen shiatsu.
Rooted in the principles of traditional Chinese medicine, and focused on the connections between the interlocking energetic and physical systems within the body, this treatment leverages ancient techniques to correct imbalances by targeting specific muscle groups and meridians. (Meridians are a traditional Chinese medicine concept, dividing the paths through which life energy flows throughout the body into ‘Yin’ and ‘Yang’ groups.)
A typical Zen Thai Shiatsu session commences with an in-depth consultation to tailor the treatment to your unique needs. This is followed by a series of acupressure treatments, stretching, and the addition of cupping and/or moxibustion (a traditional Chinese medicine therapy that entails the burning of mugwort leaves) as required.
Each session is fully clothed and floor-based, taking place on a comfortable mat – allowing greater depth, flexibility, and dexterity throughout the entire sequence, and making for a truly holistic and transformative experience.
Detoxifying Body Wrap
If your skin is not feeling quite as fresh as you’re used to, you could benefit from revitalising your pores with this detoxifying treatment.
Our Detoxifying Body Wrap is an invigorating and purifying experience, designed to relieve sluggishness and revitalise skin texture.
It begins with a circulation-boosting full-body exfoliation using mineral-rich Himalayan salts, followed by a detoxifying body mask to flush unwanted toxins out of your body. After a refreshing shower, a hydrating application of enlivening lotion will leave your skin feeling toned and looking lustrous.
Note: For an additional fee, you can choose to swap out your shower for a mineral-rich bath soak for an additional 20 minutes.
Arabian Oud
Are you seeking holistic head-to-toe relaxation? Are you in need of both physical and emotional rejuvenation? This treatment is the complete package.
The Arabian Oud treatment is a deluxe experience for both the face and body, offering a comprehensive head-to-toe journey.
This treatment immerses you in nurturing and sacred Oud Oil, while you enjoy a stress-relieving back massage, a nourishing facial, and a relaxing foot massage.
It not only provides physical benefits, such as muscular tension relief and detoxification, it also has a profound impact on your emotional, energetic and spiritual well-being.
