Dry Sauna Salt therapy (halotherapy)

Salt is heated and then grinded allowing the inhalation of tiny micro-particles of salt which have high concentrations of negative particles. Over the years research shows that treatment of negative ions can dramatically increase energy, mental alertness, reduce stress and provide an enhanced overall sense of well-being. The salt particles also help to absorb moisture, and alleviate inflammation, making it ideal for those with respiratory issues like asthma.

Includes diamond shape cut crystal inserts in the sleek styling desk with inspired classic and elegant vinyl chairs.

WaveMotion Massage

Bodywork performed on an innovative massage table that provides a gentle wave motion, rotation and vibration for deep relaxation. A new approach to massage this table facilitates fluid movements to enhance the massage treatment

Your experience includes:

  • Zero Gravity chair; optimal for easing back strain, providing ultimate comfort and relaxation.
  • Color therapy; light of different frequencies and wave lengths of elctro-magnetic energy. Affects all living cells and can have a very profound and healing effect.
