So, what’s on the programme? A wonderful coconut scrub that both exfoliates and nourishes the skin, which will leave your skin feeling silky smooth. What’s more, the delicious bittersweet coconut aroma of the scrub will make you feel blissfully relaxed.
African Aufguss sessions will be given in both the Kelo sauna and African sauna, with wood scented sessions to be enjoyed in the Kelo sauna and mango and rose scented sessions in the African sauna. The rose aroma helps alleviate stress, the tropical mango aroma has an energising effect, while the wood aroma (just like coconut) will make you feel wonderfully relaxed. The traditional rhythmic African music played in the background during these Aufguss session adds some extra African flavour!
Finally, we will be serving rooibos tea after the relaxation sessions with Tibetan singing bowls!

Scent has a surprisingly powerful effect on how we feel. A hint of lavender can instantly make you calmer, while citrus notes give you an energy boost. Our Aufguss masters take this into account when planning their sessions. They don’t just randomly choose the aromas they use during an Aufguss or scrubbing ritual, they carefully match them to the type of experience given.
