Popular Treatments Include:

VOYA WARMED HERBAL BAG MASSAGE

The ultimate massage experience. Warmed muslin bags containing a combination of the finest herbs and seaweed are deeply massaged into the body, gently moulding to every contour. The heat radiates through the body and relaxes and soothes aches and pains. This full-body treatment reconditions and rejuvenates your skin by gently exfoliating the outer layers and nourishing deep within. The herbal bags offer a relaxing way to detox as the seaweed gel is a powerful anti-oxidant and increases the body’s metabolism.
