Honey Massage is an ancient form of treatment, which effectively stimulates metabolism and blood circulation as well as raising low blood pressure. Honey massage exfoliates, cleanses, softens, relaxes, refreshes and moisturises the skin, and is also suitable for facial massages, regardless of skin type.

Aromatherapy involves fine, real vegetable oils that are absorbed into the skin using soft massage.
