Although the procedure is different
from others I have seen, you may be
slightly familiar with some parts of the
treatment as it resembles a hot stone
massage, but in Rest Detail they use Lava
Shells to do the same trick. The Shells are
(for those not familiar with Lava Shells)
the size of a palm and I don’t think they
are found on the shores of Hua Hin.
These are warmed and applied to the
body with an oil of your choosing. The
treatment has many benefits such as
decreasing muscle tension and providing
a general feeling of relaxation.
The treatment is a complete bliss,
for 90 minutes your entire body is
gently massaged with the shells and
the therapist’s hands. The shells are
smooth on the skin, even more so than
the hot stones I have tried. Due to the
heat that they contain, the muscles
are gently nudged into relaxing and
unknotting. With this kind of treatment
it was clear that after 30 minutes or so
I was in deep sleep and might have
snored as usual. The treatment ending
is something I cannot remember much,
except for being told not to wash off the
oil immediately, as it is beneficial for
the skin. I left looking like a fully basted
steak but feeling very sleepy, relaxed and
pampered.
HOT SCORE
I have to start by saying that this
is one of the few amazing relatively
undiscovered Boutique hotels in Hua
Hin. I highly recommend a visit if not
for anything else but to have a coffee
and to take in the Ocean and the very
cool design and décor. As for the Spa,
the treatment I tried is a rare indulgence
for those who like to experiment new
things and be exposed to the quality of
service and the understated luxury that
follows it through. Check out Rest Detail
Hotel Hua Hin and Restfully Yours and
make sure you bring your camera for the
ambiance pictures, you will not regret it!
