The ancient comprehensive healing system of Ayurvedic medicine regards all disease as stemming from imbalances within the body, mind, and spirit. Tapping into the therapies found in this ancient wisdom, Vida Wellness Spas in Vancouver and Whistler offer massages, wraps, exfoliations, and facials utilizing Ayurvedic herbs and spices.
Expanding even further on this theme, Vida Wellness Spas now provide personalized wellness experiences, including three- and five-day Spring Detoxifying Programs. Customized to the personal dosha and individual needs of each guest, programs are built around the use of Ayurvedic body products, blended teas, and Ayurvedic Swedana treatments, during which the body is encouraged to release toxins through perspiration stimulated by a combined application of herbs and external heat.
Take-away amenities to help guests continue their cleansing process at home include a natural bristle brush for daily dry-brush exfoliation, blended teas, body products, educational materials, and a leather-bound journal to help document the journey toward well-being. Vida Wellness Spa programs are currently offered at the Sutton Place Hotel, Vancouver (www.suttonplace.com), the Sheraton Vancouver Wall Centre (www.sheratonvancouver.com), and the Fairmont Chateau in Whistler (www.fairmont.com/whistler).
