Five treatments to enjoy at a Wales spa

So, what can you look forward to on our spa days and spa breaks in Wales? Many packages will feature the choice of one or more pampering spa treatments. Options will vary but here is a look at five great treatments that may be on offer at our Welsh spas.

• Facial: A tailored spa facial is a wonderful way to care for your face and neck, while enjoying some indulgent downtime. Lie back and relax as the therapist cleanses and smooths the skin, applying products designed to address any issues of concern, such as dryness or ageing.
• Manicure or pedicure: Firm favourites among spa-goers, these luxurious treatments for the hands or feet are both great options for guests who find facials or massages a little too “full on” but don’t want to miss out on some spa pampering.
• Rasul mud: You can find this treatment offered at a few of our spas in Wales. It is a nourishing full-body, non-therapist treatment that involves covering yourself with purified mud and relaxing in a specially equipped steam room.
• Massage: Maybe the ultimate spa treatment, most of our Wales spa hotels will offer the choice of massage as part of a spa day or spa break package. Opt for a lighter touch full-body Swedish massage or simple back, neck and shoulders massage to soothe away everyday stresses and built-up tension.
• Body polish: Also called a body exfoliation, this treatment is an all-over spa treat, which involves the application of a gentle exfoliant that works to smooth away dead cells to reveal the healthy, glowing skin underneath.
