Avoid shaving for 24 hours prior to some skin treatments such as a salt glow treatment. Salt on newly shaved skin may cause irritation!
Avoid prolonged sun exposure prior to any treatment.
During Spa
Talk to your spa therapist immediately if you are experiencing discomfort during a treatment.
Mobile phones are not recommended in Day Spa and Destination Spa, we want you to be completely relaxed! If you are expecting an important call, you can leave it with the front desk staff that will pick up the call and bring it to you.
During the massage, please close your eyes and take a deep and continuous breath. This will make you feel more relaxed and decompressed.
Ensure each steam-room session does not exceed 10 minutes.
After Spas
Avoid any vigorous activity for a least one-hour following all heat treatments.
