The transformative procedures combine crystal baths, body polishes and wraps, facials and massages to kick-start the body’s natural period of healing and regeneration. The sensual and spiritual New Moon Journey package comes particularly highly recommended this Spring. Body brushing, a cleansing bath ritual, detoxifying exfoliation and a mongongo nut body balm massage combine to wash away the heaviness of winter and energise body and mind at this time of hope and renewal. A great facial treatment to pair with this is the Signature Facial, which makes use of neroli, rose, ylang-ylang and Pinotage to restore and revitalise tired winter-weary skin. After their treatments, guests can continue to enjoy the spa experience in their luxurious suites with the Healing Earth Bath Butler Service – a bespoke bathing ritual prepared with salts, bath milk or oils with heavenly aromatherapy properties. Suffice it to say, the Healing Earth Spa at Paternoster’s Abalone House is a idyllic natural healing haven if ever there was one.
