With big anniversary celebrations this year, we want to share some of the Germaine treatments and products that are firm favourites among spa goers across the world.

All Germaine therapies begin with a warm touch protocol to allow you to switch off before your treatment begins, to allow you to gain the maximum benefit from each treatment, and finish with a gentle awaken protocol with aromas of orange blossom and vanilla hops. Germaine’s Baobab range is a restorative and rejuvenating treatment using ethnically sourced ingredients such as baobab seeds which are a superfood food rich in omega 3 and vitamin C. All sold in The Spa at The Rabbit, there are four homecare products to continue your spa therapy at home, including their top-selling revitalising hair serum, which helps to nourish and treat the hair and can be used as heat protection.

Hypnotic heat therapy is another treatment and a great destress therapy. It includes a facial massage with the UK number one best-selling product which is the Pure Rosehip Oil. Always cruelty free, Germaine de Capuccini has a range of vegan-friendly treatments. The stone massage is a unique treatment, encompassing the power of semi-precious crystals, obsidian, and onyx, healing the mind, body, and soul. Taken from the volcanic lands of Mexico, Obsidian Stone creates negative ions that help to rebalance the positive ions caused by pollution, poor diet, and stress. Negative ions are an essential element of health, they increase oxygen flow to the brain giving increased mental and physical energy. White Onyx is a naturally dense stone that cools the body and has an anti-inflammatory effect.

Germaine de Capuccini’s Vitamin C body cream contains an exclusive patent formula (HLG) With a high hydrating and nourishing power and made up of Hyaluronic Acid, Lysine, and Glutamic Acid, this compound nourishes skin cells and allows a sustained release of the active ingredients, thus undertaking an overall anti-aging action.

To learn more about Germaine de Capuccini and hear from skin experts, as well as a delicious dinner in The Rabbit restaurant, followed by relaxation in the iconic Spa, join us for a fun interactive evening on Thursday 21st March from 5pm.
