For the third consecutive year, Ananda and The Nautilus continue their partnership, enhancing and extending wellness offerings for The Nautilus’s guests seeking a rejuvenated start to the new year.

Stress Management Treatments Offered by Ananda at The Nautilus:

Stress Release (60/90 mins)

Unlike conventional stress-relief massages, invigorating pure essential oils of orange, peppermint, and eucalyptus are used to stimulate and manipulate the superficial layers of the muscles against the bone. This full-body massage relaxes the body, increases circulation, removes metabolic waste products, opens the respiratory tract, and helps the recipient achieve a feeling of connectedness.

Grounding Aromatherapy (90 Mins)

Carefully blended essential oils of rose, sandalwood, and vetiver are applied to the lymphatic pressure points of the body to support and enhance physical, psychological, and spiritual well-being, resulting in a truly holistic experience. 

Tibetan Ku Nye Massage (90 Mins)

A Tibetan body massage designed to balance the five elements and restore a harmonious flow of energy and vitality throughout the body. This treatment uses a blend of five essential oils selected to align with the five elements and is beautifully combined with Tibetan techniques such as cupping, kneading, and acupressure with hot Himalayan crystal salt poultices. The aim of this treatment is to restore the nervous system and stimulate a free flow of energy within the body.

Reflexology (60 Mins)

Reflexologists apply pressure to the soles of the feet with their fingers to help restore and maintain the body’s natural equilibrium. This gentle therapy encourages the body to work naturally to regain its own healthy balance. Contrary to popular myth, reflexology does not need to be painful to be effective; reflex points are gently stimulated to restore energy flow throughout the body, where even the slightest touch can have a marked effect on a person’s overall wellbeing.

Ananda Touch (30 Mins)

A nourishing blend of sunflower and wheat germ oil with a hint of rose is warmed and applied to the skin. Rhythmic, flowing movements over the back, neck, shoulders, and scalp release deep-seated tension and stress, relieve aches and pains, encourage deep breathing, calm the mind, and leave you feeling at one with your body.
