This post is long long due, I had been to L’Occitane Spa La Vie at Lodha Bellissimo in Jan. The entrance of the spa itself is beautiful and the entire area so quiet and nice.
Just after the reception area, there is this long sofa and comfortable chairs, a fabulous seating area. An artificial small pond Faux De Provence created on the side. Opposite to the seating area are all L’Occitane products which you can check out and/or buy.
Services and Rates
I filled up a questionnaire which had basic questions about my health and my problem areas. My problem areas were the back and neck mostly coz of working whole day on the computer. I was suggested the Relaxing Aromachologie Massage which is a mix of Swedish, Accupressure and Balinese techniques.
MRP: Rs.3250/-
Duration: 60mins
I was offered ginger tulsi green tea and a hot compress. My shoes were changed and I was given a pair of osho slippers. I visited the entire spa and all the different rooms. L’Occitane Spa La Vie is the only spa in Mumbai to have hammam too. They also have a separate room for a spa party where 6 people can enjoy being pampered at a time..perfect idea for a bride and her bridesmaids.
The couples’ room is also amazing and spacious with a bath tub and the option of a common bathroom too.
I was given a white bathrobe to change and my feet and legs were washed at first. Then the massage started with the hands and then the therapist moved towards the legs. After which I had to turn around and she concentrated on the back and neck. I can’t even describe how relaxing and nice it was. I had dozed off to sleep, though she was asking in between if the pressure was fine and bearable. She had also sprayed a pillow mist which smelled so awesome, that it immediately relaxes and induces one to sleep.
Hammam- See the showers at the top
RELAXING PILLOW MIST: Associating the tranquilizing virtues of essential oils natural 100% (lavender, tea tree and geranium) and an extract of flower of linden tree, this pillow mist calms tensions and soothe nerves. Its aromatic fragrance helps ease away stress and anxiety and promotes a peaceful, repairing sleep! (Surely buying it next!)
I have no idea when the 60 minutes passed and I was like why 🙁 I wanted it to go on and on 😀 I was given the option of having a bath but the therapist suggested to let the oils stay on the skin for them to get absorbed and hence I kept them.
It was a serene and calming experience. Highly recommend it to everyone. Book an appointment today at LoveOfSpa.com
