The Cygalle Healing Spa in the Casa de Campo hotel is a haven of tranquilty, where you can forget your worries and enjoy a truely relaxing experience for your mind and body. As one of the Cygalle Healing Spa’s biggest fans, I have enjoyed most of what they have to offer – in this article I ‘review’ their ‘Tropical Day Dream massage.’
Arriving at the spa for my massage I felt particularly stressed, but the efficient and friendly welcome staff quickly put me at ease and as soon as I walked into my private massage cabaña I had already forgotten all my worries…..
Before my massage began, my masseuse, whose name was Doris invited me to watch my fruit body mask being prepared, (you can see the ingredients in the photo above), the mask is made with 100% natural ingredients – fresh seasonal fruit, aloe vera and organic yogurt, for my mask we used pineapple, mango, passion fruit, banana and papaya. Doris put all the ingredients into a mixer and made my body mask – which looked and smelt like a smoothie, I kind of wished I could eat it!!
The massage begins with an organic cane sugar exfoliation, which is also made fresh (you can see the ingredients in the photo above) and once I had changed out of my clothes and slipped into a robe in the luxury of the private cabaña bathroom I was ready to be scrubbed and pampered!
Being a very busy girl (soo many parties, so little time), I don’t often get the chance to pamper myself so my body fully appreciated the exfoliation which was thorough, but gentle and massaging all at the same time.
After the exfoliation, came the frothy body mask which ‘we’ had made earlier – Doris smoothed the fruity mixture over my freshly exfoliated skin and when I was fully covered, wrapped me up in the towels to keep me warm and left me and my body to absorb the goodness.
By the end of my massage I felt relaxed and vitalised and now having relived the experience, I’m wondering when I can squeeze in another visit to the spa….
