All Aboard! Essential Spa Treatments Before You Travel

As the holiday season approaches, many of us eagerly anticipate and plan for our well-deserved vacations. Whether you're heading to a tropical paradise (lucky!), embarking on a cultural adventure, or planning a serene staycation, preparing your body and mind for the journey can enhance your overall travel experience. Before you pack your bags and set off, why not consider indulging in a few essential spa treatments that will leave you feeling rejuvenated, refreshed, and ready to make the most of your vacation...

1. Hydrating Facial

Traveling, especially by air, can dehydrate your skin, leaving it feeling dry and looking dull. A hydrating facial is the perfect pre-vacation treatment to restore moisture and boost your skin’s radiance. Prepare your skin with a Temple Spa My Kinda Skin facial. For best effects, we recommend booking a 60 minute treatment, though we do offer a 30 minute option! In this treatment, we'll analyse your skin before preparing a tailored treatment just for you! This facial includes a tailored face & décolleté massage plus a relaxing scalp massage, to leave you feeling amazing and your skin looking so, so good. Perfect for starting your travels with that holiday glow!

2. Body Scrub and Polish

Prepare your skin for sun exposure and achieve a smooth, even tan with a full-body scrub and polish. Our exfoliating The Outer Glow treatment removes dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and promotes circulation, resulting in softer, smoother skin. A body scrub can also help prevent ingrown hairs and improve the effectiveness of moisturisers. If you're feeling extra indulgent, it's also the perfect way to begin another body treatment (hint: massage!).

3. Relaxing Massage

Traveling can be stressful, especially when dealing with long flights, packing, and the hustle and bustle of airports. A relaxing massage can help alleviate tension, reduce stress, and promote a sense of calm before your journey. We recommend our Raindrop Massage or Drift Away massage, both designed to deeply relax the body from head to toe. Both massages can be booked as 30 minute or 60 minute treatments.

4. Manicure and Pedicure

A vacation is the perfect excuse to pamper your hands and feet with a professional manicure and pedicure. Not only will this treatment leave your nails looking fabulous, but it also involves exfoliation, moisturizing, and massage to keep your hands and feet soft and smooth. Choose a long-lasting gel polish for chip-free nails that will stay beautiful throughout your trip, like our 60 minute Prescriptive Therapeutic Manicure or Pedicure. Don't forget to select colours that complement your vacation wardrobe!

5. Revitalising Eye Treatment

Late nights and early mornings preparing for your trip can take a toll on your eyes, leading to puffiness and dark circles. Try our 15 minute Replenishing Eye Ritual. A divine treatment designed to revitalise and treat the delicate eye area that needs some special attention. A pressure point and specialised eye massage lifts, firms and smoothes followed by the use of Temple Spa unique ‘cold therapy’ to tighten and tone your eye area. Perfect on it's own, or added to a hydrating facial...
