“ Bali does pampering packages really well, and at Prana we have an extensive range of packages designed for pure relaxation and rejuvenation,” said Sascha Hansen, Prana's spa coordinator.
“But we noticed many customers seeking more specific therapies. There are those who have just come off a full day's flight from Europe and need a pick-me-up to settle into holiday mode, or those mums-to-be who would love a good massage to relieve swelling and slower circulation, but who need to be able to trust that their therapist has been professionally trained to know what is safe and what is not safe for pregnant women. Then there are those who want a specially developed program to give up smoking or embark on a new, healthy lifestyle following an intense detox cleanse.
“Our new healing therapies are for all of these people.”
Prana's skilled therapists are all trained by professional, international spa and wellbeing consultants to provide safe, effective treatments that will not only target specific areas, but will leave guests feeling completely refreshed and invigorated.
Jet Lag Remedy
Perfect for people who have just arrived in Bali or are preparing to return home, this two-hour treatment pays special attention to feet, legs and back to diminish the stiffness and muscle aches caused by sitting for hours strapped to a chair at 30,000 feet. Starting with a peppermint-infused foot bath, the treatment continues with a firm massage to break down tensely-knotted tissue and improve circulation. It concludes with a one-hour signature facial to revitalise and moisturise the skin, and make up for the dehydrating effects of plane travel. The ultimate ‘Welcome to Bali '.
Mum-to-be Package
Pregnancy does not have to mean forgoing massage altogether. Health professionals actually recommend massage during pregnancy as a great way to improve circulation, reduce swelling, relieve muscle discomfort and simply pamper yourself before the new bub arrives! Prana has developed a gentle, noninvasive full body massage that is completely safe for pregnant women, using a side-lying position supported by cushions. The massage is followed by a one-hour hair cream bath and scalp treatment in the salon with freshly-brewed herbal tea. The perfect recharge for mums-to-be.
Stop Smoking Laser Therapy
Kick the habit without having to suffer from withdrawal symptoms and nicotine cravings. Prana's newest wellbeing therapy is a completely safe, pain-free program using advanced laser technology that helps you to give up cigarettes once and for all without the usual withdrawal that can turn any Snow White into one of the Ugly Sisters. By using a soft laser beam to stimulate the body's production of endorphins and dopamine -- the natural chemicals that aid relaxation -- laser therapy allows you to remain calm and content in those crucial first few weeks after taking this step towards a healthier, longer life. This unique two-day program is accompanied by ongoing support to help you overcome emotional cravings for nicotine and change your life forever.
Detox Program
In association with Shunyata Retreats, Prana has developed a detoxification program to remove toxins, parasites and other waste from the bloodstream and cells of the body. This intense program, run over three or seven days, is recommended for everyone at least once a year to restore and maintain health and vitality, and give all of the body's organs a much-needed rest. Detox drinks and supplements aid the elimination of waste, while massage and light exercise like yoga and walking are also very beneficial throughout (and beyond!) the program. This detox program has been designed both for people who would like to stay at The Villas as part of an accommodation/detox package and be close to the full support of Prana's staff, and for people who prefer the surrounds of their own home environment. It also includes guidance on the best food choices to help you avoid re-introducing toxins and acidity into your bloodstream and cells once you have successfully completed the program. Give your body a fresh start!
Prana's Natural Skin Lightener
This two-hour treatment uses high concentrations of botanicals made from natural whitening compounds to lighten skin. It begins with an invigorating body scrub using coconut milk blended with natural whitening agents such as mangosteen, licorice root, yam bean, rose hip oil, magnesium silicate, ginger and mandarin. This is followed by a body mask and wrap to ensure maximum absorption of the whitening elements. Enjoy a soothing face and scalp massage while the mask settles. To complete this beautifying treatment, a one-hour body massage uses a rich lotion comprising the same botanical concentrations as the scrub and mask.
