- Sunburn
Live Greek yogurt offers natural relief from sunburn. Before your holiday, start a diet rich in vitamin A-it helps protect the skin from burning. - Beauty tip: Classical Beauty
Beauty may be more than skin deep, but the ancient Greeks also knew the importance of head-to-toe pampering for health. Feeling good has a positive effect on our physical well-being. To achieve the smooth, flawless skin that inspired Classical art, women used honey and olive oil, often scented with wild herbs, to moisturize and protect their skin. - Spa tip: AquaElixir pools
Sessions in the AquaElixir pools are combined with massages and body scrubs to increase energize, jump-start weight-loss, or simply relieve stress and tension. Every AquaElixir pool is equipped with special hydrotherapy machines for more focused treatments, for instance on the back, the neck, the thighs, or the abdomen. - Beauty Tip: Yogurt Scrub
Yogurt’s astringent properties make it an excellent natural ingredient for masks and scrubs. For gentle exfoliation, combine creamy Greek yogurt and finely ground almonds or oatmeal into a thin paste; rub very gently, then rinse with rosewater. - Spa Tip
If you’ve ever sat on a warm ledge, it’s easy to recall the incredible sensation from the heat spreading through your body. Hot stone massage is far more sensual and a perfect way to reconnect with the harmonious energies of the earth. Smooth stones from basalt, a volcanic material, are warmed, then placed on the body and gently manipulated so that the heat spreads to every muscle, awakening each and every fibre of your being. Indulge.
