Killing time indoors during winter can be challenging for some, but of course in Cape Town this is not the case, with many undercover activities to choose from, including a range of luxurious spa and wellness centres. But for an absolutely unique experience, try out the unique Swedish Candle Massage at the Royale Hotel’s elite Equinox Spa.
Equinox Spa offers a warm and personalized setting, with décor that combines light and dark in an elegant and relaxing manner. Their treatments are designed for both spiritual and physical rejuvenation – and the Swedish candle massage is just the thing to do so this winter. The Swedish massage is probably the best-known type of massage in western style relaxation – working out knots and tension gradually with slow or vigorous movements for ultimate relaxation, depending on the style of the masseuse. Although similar in some aspects, a Swedish candle massage makes use of oils derived from special candles. The candle’s wax melts at a very low point and then becomes the ideal oil for a warm massage.
The candle wax contains pure essential oils like Geranium and Grapefruit for rejuvenation, while a detox massage, would make use of a candle with Ginger and Lime infusions. The soy part of the candle moisturises the skin and the warm oil is even more relaxing than the usual Swedish massage. This massage not only reduces tension, it also reduces pain, improves circulation and calms the entire body down. This truly is a Royale Treatment at Equinox Spa.
If you are a little unsure about the candle massage – you could also try one of their renowned Pamper Packages or massages with luxurious, health-enhancing Theravine oils instead.
Whatever your preference, this luxury spa in Cape Town is a great way to spend time indoors this winter.
