We indulged in their B Grounded Treatment that helped center our body and mind.
B Grounded Treatment
After changing in the fully equipped bathroom, complete with showers and every amenity you could need, it was time to embark on our relaxation journey with the B Grounded Treatment. It’s an incredible experience focused on energy healing by grounding the mind, body, and soul. The service started with a warm botanical sugar scrub, blended with Bamford’s curated B Silent essential oils. This gentle exfoliation prepares skin for the deeper layers of relaxation to come. Next, we were wrapped snugly in the warmth of the Infrared Sauna blanket before our skilled and lovely massage therapist gave a light lymphatic drainage massage. This felt like a soothing wave washing over tense muscles, promoting a deep sense of relaxation. The treatment concluded with a refreshing mist of B Silent spray and warm towels that left our skin feeling renewed and our spirit uplifted.
Just so ya know, the experience doesn’t end when your treatment does. Right outside the spa, you’ll find a charming little café where you can grab an iced coffee or a smoothie (perfect for a post-treatment refresher). You can also take your drink to the gorgeous outdoor pool deck, exclusive to spa guests for a limited time, where you can lounge and soak up the sun. If you’re a local or simply need to catch up on work, bring your laptop and settle into the gorgeous hotel lobby. It’s an ideal spot for combining productivity with relaxation, surrounded by the calming ambiance of the hotel.
