This treatment begins with a dry brush massage (See Massage: Traditional Dry Brush Massage). This special massage uses stroking techniques applied in a special way to the skin, using a brush of half bristles. This action helps increase the blood circulation in the skin capillaries and removes from upper skin layer dead cells leaving the skin surface smooth and receptive. The body is then covered with a special cream containing whipped cream, honey and orange oil and wrapped. This cream wrap is left for 20 minutes whilst the nutrients from the honey and cream are absorbed into the skin. The treatment is completed with a short relaxation massage.

This skin renewing therapy has been created from an old Hungarian folk recipe.  Sea salt and fruit brandy are mixed together with massage oil to create a special thick body scrub.  Using smooth movements the mixture is gently massaged into the skin over the whole body. The salt granules naturally remove the dead skin cells and this combined with the vitamin fruit brandy stimulates the blood circulation in the skin.  The result is clean, soft, velvety skin.  The treatment ends with a 20 minute bath with alkaline salts.

The treatment begins with a traditional body scrub, which cleans, opens up the pores and removes dead skin.  The scrub mixture is then washed off in a warm shower, whilst a special mixture of Dead Sea mud is prepared.  This mixture is applied to all the body and is then covered with a foil and blanket.  Following a relaxing rest for 20 minutes the mud is removed in an invigorating shower.  An effective anti-cellulite gel is then applied to all the problem areas of the body.

This green clay, with special detox properties is applied over all the body including a thin layer on the face.  The body is wrapped tightly and left for twenty minutes, whilst the clay naturally absorbs toxins from the skin.  After 20 minutes the clay is hosed off in a shower.  As part of the detox process, plenty of water or tea is recommended after the treatment.

The treatment begins with a classic hot towel back massage where hot water is poured into a rolled up towel and gently pressed onto the back. Local honey is then delicately dripped along the spine from the neck to the waist, onto the shoulder blades, hips and behind the knee.  Fresh cabbage leaves, which have been broken along the vein allowing the minerals and vitamins to escape, are placed onto the honey.  Vitamins A and C and natural anti-inflammatory minerals (potassium, iodine, calcium and iron) seep through the skin, helping to strengthen the immune system, also having a positive effect on tired or painful joins and tight muscles.   The pack is then left for 30 minutes the treatment ending with a refreshing hot shower.

The infrasauna is different to a normal sauna in that the infrared light which is used, (similar to the rays of the sun), heats only the body and not the air in the sauna chamber. This means that the temperature of the chamber only reaches about 38 °C making it a suitable treatment for guests who dislike the heat intensity of the traditional sauna or who have cardiovascular complications. This heat, generated by the rays, penetrates through the skin to produce a heat deep in the body. The direct result of the treatment is improved blood circulation, detoxification through perspiration, a strengthened immune system and a feeling of relaxation. The heat also leads to a dilation of blood vessels that increases the oxygen supply to the joints, hence fastening the healing process.

In this luxurious pampering treatment we combine two relaxing treatments. It begins with a whirling warm bubble bath of 34 °C in which special bath oil is added containing vanilla and cream flavors. The treatment is based on a hydro program in a wellness bath combining a whole body massage with relaxing foam. The natural almond oil results in the skin becoming silky soft and fresh. The uniqueness of this treatment is in the fragrance of the oil which is pleasantly sweet, resulting in a feeling of peace and relaxation - physically and mentally.  This is followed by a 30 minutes relaxing body massage with soft and smooth movements and a special vanilla and cream massage wax. The specialty of the wax is that its consistency helps to nourish, revitalize, soften and moisture the skin like a body lotion. Its particular benefit is that by the end of the massage the wax is completely absorbed into the skin without leaving an oily surface.

This treatment is given in an individual thermal bath at a temperature from between 36- 37°C for 20 minutes.  The water is enriched with a mixture of herbs, each mixture is individually formulated according to suitability and the wishes of the guest. The bath is followed by a dry herbal aromatherapy wrap also for 20 minutes, to enable the body to completely relax and de-stress. The treatment ends with a 20 minute deep relaxation massage. The treatment helps to relax, refresh and re-energize the body.

The wellness mud pack is an excellent therapy for replenishing lost minerals from the body and cleaning out the pores of the skin. The warm mud is packed directly onto the skin and left for 20 minutes. During the treatment the capillaries enlarge letting in the small particles of mud that are washed away at the end of the treatment with any waste products from the skin. Because of the gentle heat and chemical components of the mud, it is a perfect therapy to combat stress, tiredness and nerve problems. The microelements of the mud also have a peeling effect, which removes dead skin, making it feel smooth and revived afterwards. The wellness mud pack is different to the traditional mud pack (See Packs: Mud Pack) in that the quality of the mud is smoother and it is applied at a lower temperature and a thinner layer.
