No matter your preferences and budget, the vast range of spa and wellness offers on the market, which combine ancient forms of therapy and techniques with modern facilities, has something for everyone. Here is a description of some of the types of wellness treatments available in Northern Jutland.
All types of massages provide relaxation, alleviation and well-being. Massage is a healing treatment of muscles and soft body tissue. It helps remove tension from sore and hard muscles, and it improves the blood circulation.
Classic massage
The classic massage is the most well-known type of massage in the western world. It is an in-depth massage that treats sore joints and muscles. It is said that the classic massage was invented by the Swede Per Henrik Ling (1776-1839).
Well-being massage
The effects of this type of massage are similar to those of a classic massage; however, it involves essential oils that are massaged into the body.
Hot Stone massage
Hot Stone massage is a type of massage involving the use of heated lava stones, which provide an intense and comfortable in-depth heat that really makes the body relax.
Foot massage
A foot massage is either part of a body massage or a type of zone therapy.
A foot massage makes you relax and provides new energy and well-being by re-creating your mental and physical balance. A foot massage provides a wonderful feeling not only in the feet but throughout the body.
Aromatherapy massage
Essential oils are mixed into the massage oil, which is used during your body massage. You can select the essential oils for your massage according to their fragrance or their characteristic. As an example, lavender provides calmness and stimulation.
Algae wrap
An algae wrap strengthens and cleans your skin. In addition, the algae counteract cellulite. This happens because algae contain a large amount of proteins, vitamins and minerals that add refreshment, moisture and nourishment to the skin. As a first step, your body is subjected to a dry brush exfoliation, then the algae mixture is applied and finally, you are wrapped up in a blanket. At the end, the algae mixture is rinsed off, and a moisturising cream is applied to your body.
Clay wrap
A clay wrap peels and moisturises. Clay contains a lot of minerals and is particularly good for dry skin, sore muscles, stiff joints and bad blood circulation.
Body scrub
A body scrub removes dead skin cells and leaves your skin feeling soft and resilient. In addition, a body scrub enhances your blood circulation. At some wellness centres, you can choose between various body scrub levels.
Face and scalp massage
This type of massage has a de-stressing, meditative and calming effect that makes your mind put those busy thoughts aside and makes you forget about your stressful everyday life. During a face and scalp massage, the tense areas around your neck, jaws, cheekbones and eyes are treated along with your scalp in order to remove muscle tension, reduce the feeling of tiredness and add radiance and new vitality to your face.
Algae mask
When applying an algae mask, your skin is strengthened and cleaned by means of algae with a high content of proteins, minerals and vitamins, which provide a refreshing feeling as well as nourishment and moisture to your skin. Overall, face masks are pure luxury for your skin; they make it look fresher by removing dead skin cells, and afterwards your skin is less prone to ageing and impurities.
Steam bath
A steam bath warms up all your muscles and makes you relax. At many wellness centres, aromas are added to the steam baths.
Manicure
A manicure consists of beauty treatments of hands and nails. During the manicure treatment, your nails are filed, any hard skin is removed, and nail varnish is applied.
Pedicure
During a pedicure treatment, any hard skin is removed from your feet, and your toe nails are filed and varnished. Regular pedicure treatments prevent nail infections.
