With winter just around the corner, the leaves have fallen off trees and the air is a touch cooler… the perfect time to take a well-earned break, recharge the batteries, indulge and be pampered.
Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools & Spa is just a 90-minute trip away from Christchurch. General Manager of the Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools & Spa, Graeme Abbot, says why not reward your employee of the month or treat someone special to the ultimate in indulgence – a treatment at The Spa at Hanmer Springs.
He says the $3million world-class Spa complex offers you the ultimate in indulgence!
“The Spa has certainly enhanced the town’s reputation as New Zealand’s premier alpine spa village. It undertakes more than 24,000 treatments a year and its more than 30 offerings go well beyond the standard massage and facials, to full-body treatments and luxurious packages. I’m thrilled the Spa has become New Zealand’s busiest spa.”
Graeme Abbot says there are a number of options on offer at The Spa.
“The Vichy massage, a signature treatment at the Spa, consists of a heavenly massage delivered by seven high-powered water jets. Another popular treatment is the hot stones therapy developed by Sothy’s of Paris, which involves being massaged with heated Balinese stones,” he says.
“For a more decadent treatment, chocolate-lovers will adore the Chocolate Regenerative Care facial, which consists of exfoliation and deep-pore cleansing, followed by a relaxing cocoa butter facial massage, before the chocolate fondue mask is applied. This facial gives softness and suppleness to the skin and improves the brightness of your complexion - and it tastes great!” he says.
He says another treatment to tempt the taste buds is also available at The Spa.
“The Cocoa Relaxing Body Treatment is a fantastic, feel-good treatment, designed to awaken your senses and will leave skin hydrated and soft. You start with a honey and sugar exfoliation, then proceed to a melted Cocoa Butter massage. The Hot Cocoa wrap is then applied while you lie back and soak in the wonderfully warming and bubbling effect of this unique mask. To end, a hydrating Cocoa Milk is applied.”
Graeme Abbot says now is the perfect time to indulge yourself, but he warns you’d better be quick because bookings are hot!
