Swedish massage
Massage that stimulates blood and lymphatic circulation and relieves muscular and nervous tension. Because of its calming, stimulating and congestion-relieving action, it adapts equally well to an active or more sedentary person. A sense of lightness for the body and spirit.

Therapeutic massage
This massage is deeper, working on recurring pathologies and nerve, joint and muscle problems. Works all systems of the body to return it to equilibrium and autonomy and thereby, to health.
                                               
Hot stones
A deep voyage of relaxation using the energy of the volcanic stones. The alternation of hot and cold stones creates a harmony between body and spirit; this massage is an excellent stress-reliever.
                                                                                                               
Integral reflexology
Conscious and scientific stimulation of points and reflex zones all over the body. Deep relaxation and pain reduction. Done without oil and over clothing. It activates healing.
                                                                                                                               
Reiki
Reiki is the transmission of the universal energy of life (magnetism) by the laying on of hands, helping to increase the quantity of energy and to release blockages in the body. It awakens your vital force, deeply calms the spirit and helps to put emotional and psychological concerns into a different perspective.
                                               
Body wraps
Cozy in a warmed blanket, the body wrap permits pleasant relaxation used alone or before your massage. We offer three types of body wraps.

• Seaweed 
  Excellent for light drainage of toxins, thus helping your blood and lymphatic circulation as well as your immune system to carry out a good cleansing. As a source of vitamins, trace elements and remineralisation, it will give you a feeling of lightness and renewed energy.
                
• Peat mud
  By eliminating accumulations of acids and joint residues, this treatment is excellent for pain caused by inflammation and water retention. It is amazingly effective for heavy and tired legs where puffiness and water retention are a problem. Remineralises tired joints and muscles. An excellent anti-inflammatory.
                         
• Chocolate
  When it’s a question of taking care of your skin, 70% cocoa is a powerful antioxidant that allows an in-depth hydration of your tired skin. It is soothing, energizing and anti-ageing… and you’ll smell “chocolaty good".   
  
  You can also have a facial massage during this treatment.
