What this treatment is like
A body scrub is an exfoliating treatment in which a salt, sugar or herbal blend is massaged across the skin to lift away dry, dull surface cells. The result is skin that feels polished, soft and noticeably brighter.
Scrubs are a lovely way to reset before a holiday, after a long winter, or simply as a treat alongside your massage routine. The treatment finishes with moisturiser so your skin is hydrated and comfortable when you leave.
The scrub can cover the whole body or focus on the back, where congestion and dryness build up most. It can also be combined with a massage in longer sessions for a complete treatment: scrub first, then massage on freshly renewed skin.
Frequently asked questions
Can a body scrub be combined with massage?
Yes, and it works beautifully in a 90 or 120 minute session: scrub to renew the skin, followed by massage. Message to ask about combinations.
Will the scrub hurt or scratch?
No. The blends used are fine-textured and applied with a comfortable pressure. It should feel like a brisk, satisfying polish, not an abrasion.
How often should I have a body scrub?
Every few weeks suits most people. More often is fine for body-focused scrubs, less if your skin is sensitive.
