Loved up with lotus

KNOWN FOR its natural approach to promoting relaxation and wellbeing, Devarana Spa is celebrating 2017 with series of treatments featuring the magical healing properties of flowers, starting with Glittering Lotus Healing treatment with pure gold and lotus petals for radiant skin.

The heavenly botanical spa journey begins with a Thai floral therapy, the Glittering Lotus Healing treatment. The two hours of bliss start with a 30-minute Glittering Lotus Body Scrub for which the all-natural creamy and mild scrub is mixed with fresh lotus petals and gold leaf. The minimal beauty of lotus flower has long been associated with various cultures in the world, especially Hinduism and Buddhism, while the natural medicinal properties found in various parts of the plant are widely acknowledged and used both in ancient and modern medicine. 
Lotus flower petals, packed with antioxidants and hydrating properties, are used to restore the natural glow and radiance of the skin while at the same time detoxifying and moisturising, leaving the skin smooth and clean and the mood elevated thanks to its heavenly fragrance. Lotus is full of vitamin C, B complex, antioxidants and a list of minerals that lead to a more nourished and brighter complexion. Natural products infused with lotus not only help control our sebum production, balancing out oily skin, but can hydrate and improve elasticity as well. Lotus, when used fresh, also has natural alpha-hydroxyl acid that helps exfoliate and restore a youthful look to the skin. 

Used together with moistening scrub with gentle exfoliation granules and gold leaf that has healing and anti-ageing properties, your skin instantly feels cleansed and nurtured with a visible glow after the scrub. The scrub also helps if you have blemished, oily or parched skin as it deeply hydrates without making your skin greasy. The super tiny scrub grains work well at exfoliating and exposing new skin without leaving your skin raw or agitated. 
After a quick rinse, it’s time to float away with a 90-minute oil massage with gold leaves to relax, calm the nerves and restore balance of the body and mind. Long strokes and gentle kneading using palms and elbows loosen tense muscles and ease stress. For total relaxation, make sure to pick the right massage oil to suit your mood. There’s Glee with uplifting citrusy and lemongrass scents, the sweet and relaxing Mellow with rose and lavender, the warming and earthy Cherish with sandalwood and sweet almond, and lastly the cooling Breeze with cypress and neroli oil. 

Available at all Devarana Spa locations in Thailand, the Philippines, Maldives and Kenya, four newly created Divine Floral Remedy treatments will be offered throughout the year using indigenous flowers unique to each location. From April to June the Filipinas Sampaguita Essence will help refresh a dull summer complexion. During July to September the Maldivian Rose Lover treatment will offer all the benefits of skin beautifying and anti-ageing therapies. And from October to December the rejuvenating Kenyan Wild Savanna Flora treatment will offer optimal nourishment for your skin.
