Uplifting island aromas of mango, cocoa butter and lime help rejuvenate the senses while exfoliation softens and conditions the skin. The Caribbean Aqua Therapy is one of three treatments that feature the Caribbean Therapy Line. The combination of a warm Hydrotherapy/Vichy shower along with a nourishing therapeutic exfoliation leaves one feeling incredibly refreshed.
The treatment, in a hydrotherapy room, begins with an exfoliation of leg fronts, arms, décolleté and abdomen (optional) using the Caribbean Therapy Body Scrub. A Hydro therapist will use motions that include circular as well as back & forth at a pressure that is comfortable for the guest. The therapist completes the salted treatment on the back and legs. While lying face down, salts are removed and a warm Vichy shower cascades gentle droplets of water melting cares away. Once dry, a light massage using a rich Caribbean Body Creme is applied to soothe, comfort and hydrate the skin. Scents of amyris, lime, bay leaf and vetiver complete the sensory journey to the tropics.
