BODY TREATMENTS

 

A  healthy body is a beautiful body.

At The Hydro we believe that a healthy body is a body that benefits from an appreciation and practice of balance – mindful of the vital relationship between stress management, detoxing, good nutrition and regular exercise.

That is why, beyond the many treatments and therapies we offer that will help you to relax and revitalize, we also encourage you to observe the nutrition-rich menu that we offer, along with the various physical activities we promote to stimulate your entire system and general well-being.

Browse through the list of body-refining and grooming treatments we have for you.

 

Detox Body Wrap

Detox Body Wrap stimulates micro-circulation whilst relieving water-retention and improving the elimination of toxins accumulated through everyday pressures and an unbalanced diet. A warming and circulatory boosting exfoliation buffs away dead skin cells, leaving the skin cleansed and oxygenated. Following a refreshing shower, the skin is ready to absorb the multifunctional detox oil actives to enhance body contours. A warm remineralising clay wrap helps draw out impurities, followed by a warm shower. In conclusion, a grape-based body lotion leaves your skin velvety soft and invigorated.
60 min – R1050

 

Cocoon Wrap

Cocoon Wrap starts with an aromatic citrus and honey-infused full body exfoliation to remove dead skin cells, followed by luxury spa bathing in a skin conditioning milk bath containing redbush extract, panthenol and super-hydrating hyaluronic acid actives. Unwind while your therapist gently applies stress-reducing oils in slow effleurage movements in combination with a vine-based massage cream. Your body is then completely wrapped to ensure maximum absorption via the skin, during which time a soothing scalp massage encourages complete relaxation.

75 min – R1200

 

Endermologie

Cellulite often shows up as dimpling on the skin, sometimes called the ‘cottage cheese’ look, even in those who are physically fit. LPG increases blood and oxygen to the cellulite-afflicted areas of the skin, after which fluids eliminated from the cells are removed via urination. During treatment, a mechanical roller is applied to the body while it is sheathed in a body stocking, creating a feeling similar to deep tissue massage . It is generally not painful and may even be soothing. A suction device is also applied to the cellulite-affected areas.

Hydrotherapy

This process assists the detoxification process by increasing metabolic rate and stimulating blood circulation. The treatment begins with a 15-min jacuzzi bath to stimulate circulation and warm up sore/stiff muscles. This is followed by a hot/cold sitting bath to encourage blood and lymph circulation. Over the longer-term, this may help to reduce cellulite.  The session ends with a full-body, cold spray followed by a steam bath or sauna to promote elimination of impurities via the skin. Afterwards, your skin feels  smooth and you are left feeling both invigorated and relaxed.
Duration: 45 min ~ R400

 

Lymph Drainage

Designed to manually stimulate the normal detoxification function of the body’s lymphatic system, this treatment improves conditions of oedema (fluid retention) as well as providing post-operative encouragement of the natural healing processes. By using gentle, specialised pumping techniques, the therapist moves your skin in the direction of the lymph flow, thereby optimising the process by which lymphatic vessels mobilise substances that are vital to your body’s immune system as well as removing waste products.
Duration: 60 min ~ R900

 

 Marine Algae Wrap

Concentrated in the Ocean’s invigorating benefits, this blue lagoon scrub pairs the incomparable exfoliating power of marine salt with nourishing oils to reveal a refined skin texture with a velvety feel. Followed by Plasma gel encourages the absorption of minerals. Applied 100% natural mud from the Dead Sea with an exceptional mineral content (Calcium and Magnesium) makes this wrap a multi-action treatment: a slimming precursor, natural anti-stress, post-exercise recovery. Cellulite dimpling is smoothed, tense joints and muscle pain are eased, and the body is completely replenished in minerals.

Duration: 60 minutes ~ R1250

 

Muscle Release

Muscle Release is a powerful body treatment that begins with a warm, aroma-infused sugar scrub followed by a therapeutic bath containing botanical actives to ease the discomfort of muscle spasms, arthritis, rheumatism, and fatigue. Firm, yet soothing back & shoulder massage techniques enhance blood circulation, followed by an anti-inflammatory cooling gel application before the whole body is cocooned.  Following a relaxing scalp massage, the treatment concludes with a moisturising lotion which leaves the body feeling refreshed and invigorated.

Ozone Therapy

For those suffering from problems such as high blood pressure, arthritis, eczema, allergies, low immunity, muscular/nervous system dysfunction and nicotine dependency.  Under the supervision of a trained therapist, treatments take place in an ozone chamber where moist heat opens pores and dilates the capillaries. Ozone oxidises toxins in the lymph nodes, fat and blood. The oxidised toxins leave the body via the sweat glands in the skin, thereby preventing the shock to the body of excessive dumping of toxins into the liver and colon.
Duration: 30 min ~ R680

 

Body Glow Exfoliation

This treatment is for those seeking a full-body skin treatment that rejuvenates and brings a glow to tired, dull or sallow skin. Dead skin cells are sloughed off the entire body by vigorous application of the fine salt scrub. This exfoliation process improves blood and lymph circulation and promotes removal of toxins. It is an excellent precursor to other treatments such as wraps and massages where penetration of the skin by selected products is required. The salt scrub is washed off in a shower after which a grape-based body lotion is applied, leaving you  relaxed and your skin feeling soft, silky and well hydrated.
Duration: 30 min ~ R600

 

Thalasso Therapy

Thalassotherapy is ideal for those who want to kick-start the detoxification process, de-stress and find relief from general aches and pains. In addition, the treatment stimulates the circulatory and lymphatic systems to encourage the reduction of cellulite, enhancing the natural body shape.  After a salt crystal buff exfoliation, be submerged in a heated aromatic bath infused with detoxifying fucus and marine sediment blend paired with juniper berry, grapefruit, and tea-tree essential oils. Underwater lymph drainage techniques facilitate the elimination of toxins. Cleansing Body oil application followed by a contouring cream leaves the body restored, remineralised and energised.

Integrative Slimming

For those who wish to tackle cellulite and undesirable curves and to firm and tone the skin. Special products are used that target and re-oxygenate both superficial adipose layers as well as deep skin tissues where cellulite is generated, helping to reverse that process. At first, a unique mousse is applied to the affected areas, followed by various figure-sculpting concentrates.  This is followed by a specialised  massage that utilises deep movements designed to dislodge cellulite while reviving the skin leaving it toned and refreshed. Finally,  a cream  chosen to match your body type is applied and you are given a diuretic infusion drink.
Duration: 45min  ~R1450

 

Marine Algae Bath

This effect of micronised marine algae in a relaxing bath is to boost blood and lymphatic circulation, strengthen muscle tone and promote the elimination of toxins. In addition, fluid retention is diminished as well as aches and pains, particularly those associated with sports injuries.  Initially, a gel is applied to  the whole body to neutralise the pH balance of the skin, enabling efficient absorption of the pure algae. This is followed by a relaxing, 20-minute immersion in a bath infused with micronised marine algae. Finally, a marine body lotion will be applied to your skin, leaving it feeling soft and moisturised.
Duration: 30 minutes ~ R700
