Craving solitude from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, I booked in for the Surrender Spa Package ($185), which combines two elements of endota’s signature treatments – the Organic Relax Massage and Organic Infusion Facial – for 75 minutes of nurturing from top to toe.

Following a consultation, my route to relaxation began by measuring the hydration levels of my skin using a BT analyse, and a full face scan to examine what was happening both on and below the surface of my skin. This assessed the levels of sun damage, spots, skin texture and any other areas of concern, allowing my therapist, Kasumi, to not only soothe my body and mind but also to ensure the post-facial products were tailored to the needs of my skin.

Sweet surrender

The air softly laced with Calm Essential Oil – endota’s very own blend of ylang ylang, lavender and bergamot – the rhythmic movements of the soothing massage melted away stress and tension,
while warm stones worked their magic.

Kasumi then began my facial, using the endota Organics skincare range. All natural and full of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, the potent formulations are carefully crafted from pure, active botanicals to deliver visible results and glowing skin – without harsh chemicals.

These were carefully massaged into my skin with Jade facial rollers to deeply nourish and hydrate. Upon re-measuring my skin’s moisture levels after the facial, we found – to my glee – a significant improvement.

The full-body session culminated in a scalp and foot massage, leaving me utterly relaxed from scalp to soles.

Completely blissed out, I was gently guided to a comfy chair, where I sipped on a cup of organic peppermint tea, savouring the warm glow that enveloped me from the inside out, before stepping back out into the world a grounded, more revitalised version of the person I was when I went in.

A study found the Organic Relax Massage can decrease your heart rate, reduce stress and alleviate tension.
