How your days unfold

A massage treatment at Cedarvale

Every stay follows a gentle daily rhythm — and every program includes a choice of massage, hydrotherapy and skin treatments from our menu, selected with you by our therapy team on arrival to suit what you need. Your chosen treatments are included in your program, so there are no hidden extra costs.

Treatments

A choice of treatments

Cedarvale's wide range of treatments are truly one of the highlights of your stay – they will change the way you feel! Each package treatment allows up to an hour — sessions under 30 minutes count as half a treatment, 30 minutes or more count as one. Additional treatments are available subject to availability. Treatments are scheduled between 2:30 – 6:30pm and are not available on Saturdays.

Massage

5 treatments

A firmer technique working deep tissue and muscle layers to relieve strain, tension and congestion, with extra focus on problem areas if you'd like.
Gentle, flowing full-body strokes across back, legs, arms, neck and shoulders — aimed at total relaxation and easing stress as much as muscular aches.
Hot packs to relax muscles and boost circulation, followed by a deep remedial massage — good for sore, tight muscles.
Deep tissue work and Swedish stretches focused on the shoulders, back, neck and chest, where most of us carry tension.
A quiet, simple foot massage — one of the most relaxing twenty minutes of your stay.

Hydrotherapy

5 treatments

A mini-sauna (with your head free of the steam) that supports detoxification, immune function and circulation, finishing with a cool contrast-shower aqua massage.
A manageable dry heat that targets you internally, followed by a hot-and-cold contrast shower — supports circulation, sweating and an immune boost.
Moist hot packs with brief cold intervals applied to an affected area — useful for congestion, pain, cramping and sluggish organ function.
A stimulating salt glow, then a cold-sheet wrap that warms as your body relaxes — good for insomnia, restlessness and cleansing.
A private deep spa bath with mineral salts for deep, soothing benefit — eases sore muscles and cramps.

Therapeutic Skin Treatments

3 treatments

A neck, shoulder and facial massage followed by a nourishing clay face mask and a 20-minute foot massage — suits all skin types.
A full-body clay wrap — choose charcoal for a cleansing, anti-inflammatory effect, or an antioxidant blend of pomegranate, guava, green tea and ginkgo.
Steam or sauna and a contrast shower, followed by a full-body salt scrub and body butter — deeply relaxing.

Isn't it time you felt great again?
