Forest Spa 'Drift away treats’ packages

As with our other Forest spa packages, you spend at least 1.5 hours chilling in our ‘space out’ zone before your massage treatment in one of our open sided salas for couples. Use of the steam cave, rock plunge pools, refreshments and snacks are all inclusive.

However, for our ‘Drift away treats’ forest menu we normally require that you decide on your massage program in advance so we can book the space and prepare ourselves.

Which massage should I choose?

Hot stone massage

The smooth hot basalt stones are placed on certain points on the body to warm and loosen tight muscles and balance energy centers in the body.

In addition, the therapist will work tight muscles deeply using the warm stones, and will apply long smooth strokes across your body -- the dynamic combination of the heat of the stones and their movement is surprisingly reassuring – it's impossible not to succumb to the comforting heat. This can be an intense experience, and you will find that 1.5 hours is deeply relaxing. This massage is always combined at Tamarind Springs with an additional massage (head, foot or face).

Manual Lymphatic Drainage massage

This treatment is highly prized as a beauty treatment in spas all over the world due to its dramatic relief of tired puffy eyes, congested facial fluids and immediate relief of swollen legs and ankles. It can even, with repeated applications, reduce cellulite.

Originally designed as a medical technique to alleviate pre- and post- operative swelling, MLD will dramatically improve the flow of the lymph and keep the lymphatic system in good working order, making it highly beneficial for detoxification. At the same time, its calm gentle rhythm engages the nervous system so that it’s deeply relaxing.

The lymphatic system, which is almost as extensive as our blood circulation, is the 'waste disposal' system for the body. If it is blocked, toxins will not be released, and tiredness and/or illness may result.

• improve many chronic conditions of the skin as well as as sinusitus, rheumatoid arthritis.
• promote healing of wounds and burns
• promote the healing of fractures, torn ligaments, sprains and lessens pain
• strengthen the immune system

A surprisingly nurturing and totally relaxing hour of gentleness. Working on the face and head and lightly on the shoulders, the therapist combines gentle pressure and massage. No oil is used for this massage.

Face massage (1 hr)

All-natural botanicals for our signature facial. This soothing and gentle massage will leave your skin feeling toned and smooth, and you feeling relaxed and pampered. The facial uses cleanser, scrub, toner, mask, massage cream and serum, and is non-invasive, using hands only.
