Best Spa Treatments for Couples

If you want a great way to reconnect with your significant other or just spend some valuable time together that doesn’t involve too much strenuous activity, then a spa treatment is the right option! There are so many great treatment varieties to try, but if you’re unsure which to go with, then here’s a look at the best spa treatments for couples.

1. Rasul Mud Treatment

This is an Arabian-inspired cleansing treatment that combines the detoxifying properties of heat, steam, and mud. While this might seem counterintuitive, the high-quality mineral-rich volcanic mud is great for cleansing the skin of impurities, and it leaves your skin feeling soft and silky smooth. You and your partner will enter the private steam room in robes or towels, before applying the spa mud to your face and body. A scrub will also be applied to the skin, either before or after the mud application. The steam opens up your pores, cleaning them out while enriching them with minerals. You then relax with your partner in the steam room as the combination works its magic. You can chat and relax while feeling great afterwards!

2. Couples Massage

This is a great way to relax and unwind with your partner, and it’s certainly one of the more popular couples’ treatments. You will lie on massage tables, side by side, while experienced massage therapists customise the treatment to your particular needs. The Swedish couples massage is a well-known option. This is a deep-tissue massage that uses gliding strokes to reduce muscle tension and boost your circulation for increased relaxation. Another great option is the Indian head massage, or the head, neck, and shoulder massage, whereby you sit side by side while enjoying this incredibly relaxing experience that releases the free flow of energy.

3. Hot Stone Massage for Couples

This particular couples’ massage incorporates heated volcanic rocks which are placed strategically over your bodies to help relieve muscle tension. As with the Swedish massage, you will lie on massage tables before the rocks are placed, generally on your back, shoulders and neck. The massage therapist will then use long or circular strokes to help the body relax and improve circulation. The rocks are known to release energies, helping with fertility, anger management, and even boosting libidos!

4. Couples Facial

While a facial can be enjoyed alone, a couples’ facial is that much more special, and the therapist can tailor the treatment to each of your skincare needs. You will be brought into a relaxing environment before your skin is cleansed and various enriching and hydrating products are applied to the face. There will be time to simply sit and relax, chat with your significant other, and enjoy the health benefits of this treatment.

5. Hammam Experience

This is a Moroccan or Turkish cleansing and massage experience that is best enjoyed as a couple! It starts with a complete washdown in a rain shower before you enter a steam room together. This will open up the pores and eradicate any toxins. You’re then scrubbed clean, removing dead skin cells and impurities, before showering or bathing again. Certain spas will then include a massage after the treatment, adding healing oils that ensure you’re revitalised when leaving the spa. In addition to quality time spent together, you and your partner will leave feeling rejuvenated and happy.

6. Aromatherapy Facial

We mentioned the facial option earlier, but a great couples’ facial option is aromatherapy, as this enhances the experience through another sense while promoting healing and relaxation. Your therapist will find out what is troubling you and what skincare concerns you might have before mixing aromatherapy oils for the massage. Your face will be cleansed before the aromatherapy facial, with the scents entering the olfactory nerves, and travelling directly to the part of the brain that controls emotions. This creates a deeper connection with your significant other on another level.
