Treatments to Enjoy at an Alloa Spa
Whichever Alloa hotel and spa? package you choose, you’re likely to have the option of one or more pampering treatments. Your choices will vary but some spa and beauty treatments Alloa venues typically offer are:
- Rasul mud: This muddy, non-therapist treatment involves slathering yourself with nourishing clay and relaxing in a steam room before showering to reveal soft, healthy skin.
- Spa facial: Lie back and let the therapist use products tailored to your skin type to pamper and care for the face, neck, and decolletage, leaving you relaxed and radiant.
- Luxury manicure: There’s nothing quite like an elegant spa manicure, which involves stages to care for the hands, trim the cuticles, and shape the nails, before polish is applied.
- Back, neck & shoulders massage: This treatment is a favourite among spa-goers as it focuses on areas prone to storing tension, leaving the upper body loose and de-stressed.
- Head massage: For anyone who would like a spa massage but are anxious about undressing, this is a wonderfully soothing option, promoting relaxation and healthy sleep.
