A 3 STEP SYSTEM
An individual’s sense of well being is not just a matter
of looking after the physical body. The mind and spirit must also
be nurtured and cared for. The ritual of regular herbal Spa treatments
is a traditional eastern way to facilitate this process of well
being and to awaken a greater awareness of the link between the
mental and bodily processes. The 3 step kata spa experience starts
with the guest drinking a fresh infusion of herbal tea, followed
by the steam room and massage and, in the space of 2 hours, emerge
revitalised, calmed and focused.
 Step
1, Herbal Steam Room
A herbal steam sauna room is not as hot as most common saunas, 35c-45c
or 95f-110f. Guests stay in the sauna for short periods of 5-10
minutes each, this period is long enough for vapours from the theraputic
oils to be carried into the blood stream, which medical opinion
states is the best and quickest method of gaining benefits of the
essential oils contained therein. The aromatic steam is created
by infusing a special combination of fresh herbs and essences into
a custom designed boiler. The steam is then piped into the sauna
room.
Step 2, Cooling
and relaxing
 Dip
in a cooling plunge pool and relax in the quiet area whilst enjoying
fresh fruit juices.after each session, take a cooling dip in our
plunge pool. Drink plenty of water and fresh fruit juices to replenish
the body’s sugar levels and lie down on one of our wooden beds.
The ambience is restful and unobtrusive, with suitable restful music,
the aroma of fragrant oils in a garden setting with flowing waterfalls
and flowering plants. No distractions like tv’s are allowed. This
is a time for working on yourself. The heart rate has time to drop
and your breathing becomes fuller and more rhymic. The process must
be repeated up to 5 times to allow a minimum total of 20 minutes
of herbal inhalation.
 Step
3, The Traditional Thai Massage
The style of massage used by us is based on centuries old Thai traditions
and yoga techniques learned at the Wat Po temple in Bangkok. Thai
style massages focus on realigning the muscular and energy pathways
in the body, unlocking tense shoulder and neck muscles and providing
relief to guests with lower back disorders. The technique is a combination
of pressure points and working the bodies skin tissue and muscle
areas with particular attention to legs and feet. We spend most
of our day standing and our feet are our contact point to the earth.
Essential oils are used to enhance the theraputic effects in particular
Prai, Ylang Ylang and Wild Mint. Guests lie on a traditional thai
cushioned mattress during massage.
