The resorts 90-minute Sleep
Journey is designed to unwind a busy mind, offering guests the opportunity to
escape the pace of everyday life and emerge feeling focused, with a sense of
renewed positivity and the ability to achieve a good nights sleep. The journey
begins with a Sleep Ritual assessment in the comfort of a treatment villa,
where an experienced Sleep Trainer will discover the guests current sleeping
patterns and develop a tailored Sleep Journey addressing the personal needs of
each individual. The trainer will introduce the guest to sleep meditation and
guide them through breathing and visualisation techniques to the sound of
soothing music, to help relax the mind and release physical or emotional
anxieties. The feet are then massaged to help rebalance and ground, before a
soothing deeply therapeutic massage is continued up through the body to promote
positivity to the mind. Deeply indulgent and personalised, the massage releases
deep-seated muscular tension using a combination of hot stones and warm
relaxing oil. The massage is finished with a re-energising scalp massage to
help clear the mind, enabling the guest to completely switch off, ensuring an
uninterrupted and heavenly nights sleep.
Guests can maximise the
restorative benefits of their stay by booking the four-night Sleep Collection
Journey. In addition to the Sleep Journey treatment, guests will
benefit from daily personalised Sleep Collection amenities delivered to their
villa each evening including a sleep collection kit by ESPA, wellbeing tea and personalised
sleep music, as well as a signature hand and foot pampering session with a
Bastien Gonzalez expert, a mindful diving or snorkelling experience led by the
resorts dive centre professionals, as well as regular guidance from the Sleep
Trainer in order to track their progress and establish new sleep habits during
their stay.
