Facial Massage
Facial treatments promote hydration and relaxation. They are also extremely therapeutic for both men and women!
The Living Valley facial begins with cleansing and exfoliating the skin, followed by a relaxing facial massage. A gentle mask will then be applied to hydrate, purify and soften the skin.
The facial treatment also includes hot towel therapy, a hand and arm massage and a head and scalp massage that will leave you feeling totally rejuvenated and refreshed!
All Living Valley facial products are created using 100% natural ingredients, with suitable options for clients with sensitivities of any kind.
Clay Wrap
The ‘Full Body Clay Wrap’ is the ultimate detoxing relaxation treatment. You will be showered, exfoliated with natural body polishing gel, then covered with a cool slurry of green or yellow clay – neck to foot. Gentle French white clay will be applied to your face.
The green and yellow clays are powerful, natural drawing agents, while the white clay is more suitable for the sensitive skin of the face.
Once the clay is applied, you will have approximately 30 minutes to simply relax. Areas that dry faster may indicate local inflammation, while clay on areas with poor blood supply will stay moist. You will finish with a revitalising shower. You will be delighted by the freshness of your beautifully smooth skin.
Fever Bath (highly recommended)
The Fever bath is a specialised hydrotherapy treatment that has been successfully used for hundreds of years for the benefit of patients with compromised immunity or chronic illness. The objective is to elevate the body temperature by up to 4 degrees Celsius.
While sitting in a bathtub of very hot herbal-infused water, you will sip peppermint tea. You will be attended by two experienced therapists. At every degree above normal temperature the activity of your white blood cells (T-cell, B-cell, macrophages) doubles. This is greatly beneficial to the immune system. Once the fever has risen to the desired temperature (15-20 minutes), you will helped out of the bath and wrapped in an icy cold wet sheet, and then cocooned in dry woollen blankets. Your body temperature will remain elevated as it tries to heat up the cocooned cold sheet. The object is to hold your body temperature as high as possible for at least 30 minutes in order to stimulate your immune system. Most people have up to 50 billion white blood cells on reserve in their bone marrow at any one time. When the body temperature is elevated and held throughout the duration of this treatment, militant white cells are released in mass from the bone marrow to combat invading microbes, bacteria and viruses. After 30 minutes, your therapist will help you into a cold shower, the shock of which will further stimulate your immune system. We recommend that you return to your room and lie down for at least one hour after this treatment. Within two hours your white blood cell activity will have increased by up to 40 times what it was. Results for clients are often rapid and amazing. This treatment has permanently reversed symptoms associated with Ross River Fever, viral infections and immuno-deficient diseases. It has also benefited those suffering with various forms of cancer and those who have recently had chemotherapy treatments.
