Hydrotherapy
Russian Steam Bath with Aqua Massage
60 min ($70)
This highly effective treatment has a broad range of therapeutic uses. While accelerating your body's cleansing and detoxification processes, it also boosts immune function, metabolism and circulatory function. A mini-sauna is given with the advantage of having the head free of steam vapours. Fluids are given throughout the treatment, while the face and head are kept cool once perspiration begins. Depending on the desired physiological effect, your therapist may include two or more cycles of contrast showers during the treatment. The treatment concludes with an invigorating combination of a cool shower with contrast (hot/cool) aqua massage.
Hot Pack Super Treatment
60 min ($70)
This treatment is excellent for localised conditions where there is congestion, pain, inflammation, cramping or spasm. It is also highly beneficial for certain specific organ conditions (e.g., liver or kidney). A series of moist, hot packs are applied for several minutes to the affected area with intervals of brief, vigorous applications of cold. This treatment has been proven effective for a range of conditions such as joint/nerve pain, muscle tension and cramping, chest condtions, head congestion and sluggish liver function.
Relaxing Sheet Wrap
60 min ($65)
To begin your treatment, a salt glow stimulates greatly increased blood flow whilst exfoliating the skin. You are then cocooned in a cold sheet and an outer blanket is wrapped around the body. The initial stimulating reaction of the cold sheet is quickly followed by a secondary relaxing effect as your body warms the sheet. This treatment is excellent for the relief of insomnia, restlessness, nervous exhaustion, indigestion, and fever. Also highly beneficial as a cleansing treatment due to its ability to remove large amounts of impurities from the body via the skin.
Ice Massage
20 min ($20)
This treatment involves the localised application of ice in a constantly rotating motion. Blood flow is initially decreased, then increases in the affected area making this an excellent treatment for painful, inflamed joints and muscles (e.g., bursitis, sciatica, back pain, and other muscle and joint injuries).
Hot Foot Bath
45 min ($55)
Beneficial and quite versatile, the Hot Foot Bath treatment can be used therapuetically for a wide range of conditions. While in a seated position, the body is wrapped in a sheet and blanket whilst the feet are kept immersed in a tub of hot water. Reflexive relationships between the circulation of the feet and other areas of the body (e.g., lungs, brain, pelvic region, etc.) enable effective relief of congestion from these organs using this treatment. The attending therapist ensures that your head is kept cool and plenty of water is given throughout.
Mild Fever Therapy
60 min ($90)
Fever is the body's natural response to infection and inflammation. The aim of fever therapy is to induce a mild fever condition in which the body reacts in a number of ways. For example, the number of white blood cells is increased as is their rate of movement and activity. The flush of blood to the skin helps facilitate waste removal and allows more effective blood purification by immune cells located in the tissues.
Fever therapy is a supervised treatment where a person reclines in a hot spa bath. The body temperature is gradually raised to a mild fever state and is held there for up to 45 minutes by your therapist whilst body temperature and pulse are monitored regularly. A fan blowing cool air and cool compresses to the head help to make the treatment more comfortable. Water or herb teas are given to replace body fluids lost via perspiration. The bath is then cooled to bring the body temperature back to normal.
Conditions indicated for this type of treatment include chronic fatigue syndrome, glandular and Ross River Fever, candidiasis, cancer, inflammatory bowel conditions such as ulcerative colitis, arthritis, lupus, rheumatoid type conditions, influenza, colds, herpes, shingles and impetigo.
Mineral Soak
50 min ($55)
Warm extracts from the famous Neyharding Moor of Austria are applied to the skin before entering the bath. Scientific research has been conducted on this highly therapeutic substance for conditions such as arthritis, hormonal imbalances, nervous system disorders, skin conditions and mineral imbalances. The skin absorbs the beneficial properties of herbs and minerals naturally contained in the extract, imparting deep therapeutic benefits.
Aqua Massage
15 min ($22)
Circulation is stimulated using high-pressure, alternating hot and cold spray jets. Leaves your muscles feeling invigorated, yet relaxed. Can assist in the treatment of cellulite.

Therapeutic Skin Treatments
Skin Indulge Deluxe
60 min ($70)
Excellent treatment for many skin conditions by improving the circulation to the skin as well as nourishing it to better health.

Then a 20-minute foot massage is given to add to the desired effect before the face mask is removed at the end of the treatment. Suitable for all skin types.
Clay Body Wrap

Clay is a complex mixture of active minerals which have the ability to draw impurities from the body into the clay. Warm, fine clay is applied over the entire body.
