For best results, we recommend men shave on the day of a facial. For women we recommend shaving or waxing either the day before or after any thermal or body treatments such as a body wrap or scrub.
ARRIVAL
Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment time. This will allow you to enjoy the spa’s relaxing environment and a soothing cup of fresh herbal tea, whilst your therapist conducts a holistic consultation to determine your personal needs. Treatments begin and end on time in order not to inconvenience the following guest.

Robes and slippers are provided for use during your visit for spa days and wellness retreats only. It is advisable to wear undergarments beneath your bathrobe.
Our therapists are trained in professional draping to cover you appropriately during treatments to maintain your privacy. Leisurewear/Sleepwear or T-shirts with comfortable trousers or shorts are ideal attire.
