Our Massage Treatments

Each treatment begins with a short consultation so your therapist can understand your pressure preferences, areas of tension and how you would like to feel afterwards. From there, your massage is shaped around you.

Full Body Massage

55 minutes, from £55

A classic, full body massage that works from head to toe to release muscle tension, ease stress and restore a sense of balance. Slow, rhythmic strokes encourage circulation, soften tight areas and help the whole body settle into deeper relaxation.

Best for: anyone who feels generally run down, holds tension throughout the body, or simply wants a complete reset.

Hot Stone Full Body Massage

55 minutes, from £60

Warm volcanic stones are placed on key points of the body and used alongside hands-on massage to gently melt away deeper layers of tension. The radiant heat encourages tight muscles to soften, making this a wonderful choice when stress sits heavily in the shoulders, lower back or legs.

Best for: persistent muscle tightness, difficulty switching off, or guests who love the comfort of warmth during a treatment.

View

Back, Neck and Shoulder Massage

25 minutes, from £40

A focused, targeted massage that hones in on the areas most prone to tightness: the upper back, shoulders and neck. Ideal as a quick reset between meetings or as an add-on to a facial or spa visit.

Best for: tension from screen time, lifting or driving, and guests with limited time who want maximum relief.

What to Expect from Your Massage

Before your treatment

You will be welcomed into the spa, offered access to our relaxation areas, and shown to a private treatment room. Your therapist starts with a short consultation to understand any areas of tension, your preferred pressure and how you would like to feel by the end. This ensures every minute of your treatment is shaped around you.

During your treatment

You will rest comfortably on a heated treatment bed in a calm, dimly lit room. Using premium ELEMIS massage oils, your therapist combines flowing strokes, focused pressure work and, where chosen, the soothing warmth of hot stones. Music, lighting and pressure are all adjustable, so you can simply close your eyes and let the experience take over.

After your treatment

Your therapist will guide you back gently and offer aftercare advice, including hydration, gentle movement and how to extend the benefits at home. Most guests leave feeling lighter, calmer and noticeably less tense, with many choosing to linger in our relaxation areas to make the most of the afternoon.

Add a Thermal Spa Experience

Many guests choose to extend their massage with time in our thermal spa, which includes a vitality pool, juniper and salt therapy saunas, and an aroma steam room.
