Looking good ... Feeling good

It is a hedonistic life that we would like to lead nowadays, and why not? We work hard, play hard, and life seems to be busier than ever before .... the neck is tense, the brow creased, fists are clenched .... OK, time to take a deep breath and relax. 

From time to time, a person needs solitude, space and peace to recharge one's batteries.

Now, you are on holidays and finally it is time to pamper yourself and be pampered - you've earned it!   Besides that, it is essential for the heart and soul to go home from a holiday feeling better, looking better, and generally on top of the world!

Tropical North Queensland is fast gaining a reputation as a spa centre for Australia, and well it might with an abundance of resort and day spas, health and beauty centres, where guests can enjoy their treatments in serene open-air pavilions or in the cool air-conditioned comfort of indoor treatment rooms. 

In between your sun-filled days out on the Great Barrier Reef or trekking through the rainforests, imagine a most wonderful tropical sanctuary to relax and escape the stresses of your busy life, to be pampered and rejuvenated.  Port Douglas Natural Therapies Centre and Spa has long been established as that place; where you may even find that after one visit to you will be wanting to return every day. And why not? Imagine snorkelling or diving out on The Great Barrier Reef for the day, walking through the rainforest, or even a day of shopping, finished off with the 'All Adrift' - a therapeutic and luxurious Coral Sea Aroma Salt Glow and an hour massage.  Or perhaps the Aroma Stone Massage appeals to you with the alternation of hot granite stones & cold marble to help melt the muscles and provide a sense of deep relaxation. It has been said that it feels like having five massages at the same time! An unforgettable experience for men and women!

Also in the heart of Port Douglas, a day spa embedded in tropical paradise and offering a wide range of spa experiences is Wellness@Port (page 120).  A creation of Mind & Motion® Spas, Wellness is a most tranquil and relaxed environment with generous space, light colours, natural materials, and a cosy, Feng Shui based interior offering the feeling of well-being and privacy.                         

Mind & Motion's mission is to help others to help themselves as well as trigger and spread the awareness of the enormous positive impact of wellness activities to improve one's personal health.  Their vision is the creation of the 4 pillars of wellness:  active ~ passive ~ take in ~ give out.  This is why, in addition to the spa treatments, they also offer Tai Chi/Gi Gong, yoga as well as health pampering and NLP classes.
