Pre-wedding Pampering

You are greeted by the soft fragrance of aromatic oils and ambient music, and your body starts to unwind almost before the spa door closes behind you. You’re imagining relaxing massages, soothing facials and body wraps… doesn’t that sound absolutely divine!

If you’re in need of some serious pre-wedding pampering, a spa treatment is the answer. It’s the perfect opportunity to step aside from chaotic wedding day preparations and revive your body, soul and mind.

You might want to book in for a day spa with your bridesmaids, or pass on your hen’s night, and instead opt for the tranquillity of a weekend spa package shared with friends. Depending upon the spa, the package might include facials, hair treatments, manicures, pedicures, mud wraps, salt body scrubs, make-up and massages. There are often even more exotic sounding services on offer, and some of these services are outlined below.

Aromatherapy: involves the use of genuine essential oils distilled from the flowers, bark, seeds, leaves, stems, and the fruit of plants.

Reflexology: the best foot massage you’ll ever have! Therapeutic Massage: the manipulation of the body’s soft tissues, which stimulates blood circulation, relaxes muscles and can help in the elimination of toxins. Hydrotherapy: a blissfully relaxing water massage. Body Wraps: coated with a mask, or draped with seaweed, you are left in peace to relax, de-stress and absorb the benefits of the treatment.

Make sure you arrive early so you have plenty of time to undress and wrap yourself in a spa robe. For full body treatments, you will need to take everything off, including your underwear and jewellery. You should also take off the stress of finding a caterer, the anxiety of creating a seating plan, and the problems you’re having with your florist!
